Why aren't there any titled players using the forums?

I can't even find a national master or candidate master. 

scrabblechecs

There is some.

scrabblechecs

Just find them.

chessweld

Plenty of titled players who spend more time on the forums than actually playing games. I'm sure you can find at least one.

I see them all the time. Look for the  red box with a title in it on the "most recent" list of posts.

They just don't waste time with troll threads.

Mr. Pushwood is always there when you need him. At least, the ghost of him haunts the forums lel

Bingo. And there are SO many trolls here. Conversely, if you go to Talkchess, you'll notice that there are hardly any trolls there, and in the infrequent case when one shows up, he's quickly bounced.

GM_chess_player

There's one. And he's A BIG TROLL.

@ghost_of_pushwood

He's a NM. He hardly plays games here at all.

It is a pain sometimes. I try not to lose rating points reading most of the topics. It‘s a ... heap.

 

Anyway, from time to time I try to contribute something useful.

BL4D3RUNN3R

By the way, I posted some content/ games and received scarce feedback - so what’s the point of contributing?

 

Trolls meet trolls - that‘s the motto here mainly. As a mod in another forum I can tell: a no-go!

BL4D3RUNN3R

As far as I am concerned most of the time:

-open forum

-seeing noobs and trolls „discussing“ utter bullshit, bashing everyone and everything 

-close forum instantly

MaxLange-simulator

Yea...90% of the time people are trolling here  

Drunken_Shrimp

I mean you see NM @ghost_of_pushwood in fora a lot.

Drunken_Shrimp

btw, fora is the plural of forum

BL4D3RUNN3R

The plural of forum is fora, as long as you are an ancient inhabitant of the Roman imperium.

The question is: if you import a word from another language, do you import its whole „grammar“?

 

Btw, just for bragging: got the Latinum grin.png

Hey, speak for yourself!

OK, some of them do.

A fine distinction.
