trash talk is disrespectful and is not proper chess etiquette (unless it's made in a playful way between friends,that's different)

i think it is uncalled for and if you have to talk trash to get under someones skin then you are not that good of a player or person for that matter.

I'll only trash talk to friends, never can tell how some people take things, they could be a postal worker.

so a little friendly banter between adversaires makes me a bad person  and you say you dont trash talk

Really trash talking is only on amongst friends. If you do it to people you don't even know that's just brash and disrespectful. I know a lot of people who really take that kind of stuff to heart..

Good point. But playing the odds, trash talk points to North American male under 20.


is canada a real country?


Thank you for you interest Skybabe.

Last time I paid attention we were a colony of the United States with George Bush as our queen.

But things change so fast. Check Wikipedia.

Trash talk is only entrenched in an insidious mind or personality.

We all owe respect to others.

I do occasionally insult people, I am human and at times the words do affect me and I respond negatively, but never use trash language in replying, I believe that I have to be above trash and when I err, as pointed out by a reader in a forum post for instance, I retract and offer an apology.

To all the trashers I say get over it, you only are judged on your imperfections.

Do show your bright side. People will like you if not be attracted to you.


oh  ok   but where the fun in that

Best solution for trashtalkers - work out for a few months, then challenge them to a round of chessboxing.

I can ignore idiots when they trash talk; little dogs bark the loudest.


 thats is true, but all dogs bite.


...and then get their butt whooped with a newspaper to put them in their proper place because 'the man' is the master of the barking dog.  Don't forget dogs also get their noses rubbed in their own pee by 'the man.'

Pick something better than a dog to emulate.

That's a good question, Skibaby.

Canada is America's hat and not an actual country.  However, it is a magical hat that sends snow and an endless stream of entertainers to the United States.  Most scientists agree that the snow and entertainers leave Canada because they hate the French, a subterranean race of warlock cannibals, that live in the east side of the hat.

i love goldendogs dig at that "patzer" who said he didnt believe in psychology he believed in good moves...but his actions surrounding the chess board said otherwise...conscious or unconscious Mr.Fischer involved himself in some real "trash talking" on many occasions-maybe not directly with words but with actions and inference...he also said that his favorite part of a game was when he crushed his opponents ego (dick cavat show)...sounds pretty psychological to me...anyway, if you go by the paradigm that use all resources available, then trash talking IS a vialble resourse...if you follow the idea that this is a gentlemans game then no trash talking!  between friends anything goes...i dont like trashing being talked to me so i dont engage in that behavior myself unless they REALLY get under my skin...
