Chess was meant to be a social game and online chess is ruining it. The only thing online chess promotes is social isolation.

Please be careful. Maybe online chess helps ill people to stay active when the body doesn't allow to meet someone. Humans have the ability to use and to abuse technical devices. Be happy if you think only about abuse!
