You would think people would be unhappy posting here, but these users are so braindead that they actually contribute to making it more toxic every day. Sad.

It would help if you were more specific.

Several pages of spam threads a day and very little discussion about how stupid it all is, and such a waste of time. An chess.com encourages just this kind of time wasting because they're a capitalist company and all they care about is warm bodies wasting their lives on their platform.

That depends to you.

I thought chess was supposed to be a game for smart people, but I don't even want to talk to the immature babies who are always commenting in these forums. Chess.com should do something to get rid of most of you.

Off Topic isn't supposed to be ABOUT CHESS

That's why it's called Off Topic. It's for the ppl who just wanna talk and be friends.

I actually don't think chess.com imagined off-topic forums would become a social club for toddlers when they designed it. I think they counted on having mostly adult users back then.

I agreed. The website usually was made for adults. Then, they made ChessKids.com for kids, or sometimes teenagers.

You're right. It is about topics other than chess. But when the majority of topics are either mindless spam or the same repetitive yes/no above you crap threads, then that says something about the quality of people posting in otf.

And the quality is not good. This is the reason why so many good posters have either closed their accounts or just avoid this place like the plague.
