How to access chess.com if it's blocked at school!
there is a site called ixl.com.de that can bypass school blocks
Chess.com SHOULD BE BLOCKED at schools. You are not there to play chess. YOU are there to learn how to read, write, add, subtract, the wrongs of the past so that they are not repeated (a specific 79 year old clearly failed that class), the fact that you don't put a sodium block in water in your house, etc!
Schools that have chess clubs, that is an after school activity and they should be playing against each other with boards and pieces, not on chess.com posting on forums.
I know teachers first hand. 90% of today's kids are clueless as to how to sit down and shut up and let the teacher teach, and then actually doing their work. They whine about tests, don't study, and then claim they didn't know that the test was this Monday when it was announced 6 times in the last 2 weeks.
Chess.com SHOULD BE BLOCKED in schools! No wonder Gen Z cashiers can't make change at the register and Gen Z waiters and waitresses don't even understand manners when at work, calling their customers Sugar and Sweet Pea and Boss Man and Bruh - It is Sir and Mam to you unless they are a frequent regular that you know by name and you wait on them every day or every week on the same day of the week, etc.
What is wrong with people these days?
you're one of the 90% too then
