hey dude!

 iM excited to learn more about chess tactics using Pirc Defense, can you share your ideas?

I am no expert on the Pirc, but I can tell you that GM Eugene Torre was a practioner of the Pirc in the 1970s. Might still be. Look up his earlier games and maybe you'll pick up something.

"Tactics flow from a superior position.". How so you get a superior position? By being good at strategy. But feel free that study an opening.

Who? The guy who left chess.com 17 years ago?

I know... But reliving the past seems to be a thing here.

This post is literally old enough to vote

I'm done

Old posts can STILL contain Hope diamonds (look at the Masters' games for example) so I suspect that old forum threads shouldn't be discounted either.

yea but when a post is older than you its probably better to just make a new one

True, @SupremeGoofyGoober. And this thread certainly lacked meat or diamonds. I wish ChessDotCom would improve their search capabilities here. I still come across many old threads that ROCK my world. :-)

Speaking of diamonds, this thread certainly contains one ... ;-)

All my own board objects are constantly getting in my way, LOL! Space! Space! I need more space!! hahah! I'll check out Perc but there are 54++ Openings from what I've counted so far (and I've just started). Some are twisted deviations and some are unspecified variants but before Openings should come Opening Principles ... *deploying quickly, castling and giving pieces space!

*okay that's not an official list just what I want right now. I keep screaming at my pieces, 'GET OUT OF MY WAY!" shock

This forum needs a rating system so Users can vote on the value of a post within each thread. It would be simple implementation across all devices. Then we could search for the 4 or 5 star posts and pull up in a list those threads then constrain to the 4 & 5s.

And why in heck can't forum include a TAG checkmark so we can tag ones we want to review later and fine-tune our searches?

ADDED: And it would contain a DUD option instead of a star at all - so all the fluff and spam could be filtered out of our search results.

ALSO ADDED: I'll flesh out some details for Moderators instead of just complaining about it. ;-)
