Why do people get chess.com to socialize?

RedGirl is the living proof that on this page women are truly women. However I dont think a distant relationship with her would work, I live too far away from Israel and dont have the money to pay for a plane ticket to such a distant destination.

There are a couple websites that might help you understand. Both are Wikipedia. If you type in the words "chess" and "game" it gives explanations for both. Chess is a game, designed to be played by two people (although now it could be played by computer). And a game is an activity done for enjoyment, entertainment, learning or interaction. So to understand the reason chess.com is used for socializing you might have to first understand what chess is, what a game is, and what socializing is. To ask why chess.com is used for socializing is sort of like asking why a photographer uses a camera to take photographs.

Although i always went to a chess site with the intention to play chess i did meet a player 16 years ago who later became my wife (which is a very good thing). It was a different site btw and we chatted abit in our games. What suprises me about this site is that the players who post are outnumbered maybe 100 to 1 by the players who read the posts. This is close to being the zero interaction which you get when u watch t.v..

Now your sentence is correct.

 Why do people ask questions on chess.com ? They could have asked that on sites like quora.com instead. I do't know any answer for all the 'why' ...

i prefer this 

we socialize vecause we are programs inside 0f another programs .  When you socialize in any way y0u are a character, an actor,  you are not really who you believe you are.  you are an espiritual device living in a big stage  , living in the illusion of the time, but you are not nobody, you are not your body,  people socialize vecause they believe the screenplay is real like houdini and another programs play chess and socialize ( in their way)   f0r no reason

The dude is right, Im a Java Class!

I don't know why they would do that. I use chess.com just to play chess.

Yeah people who do that should get out more...just saying

ins and outs

Let's make chess.com social, like Whatsapp. What say all?
