Chess is all about TROLLING your opponent: my conclusion and I have proofs

Four months ago I started a thread here in chess.com to analyse some of my games:

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/game-analysis/the-most-interesting-game-of-chess-was-played-here-in-chesscom

 

Later, I wrote the series "PAWN PUSHER", based on PAWN SACRIFICE movie:

Pawn Pusher 1:

PAWN PUSHER (THE KING OF PATZERS)

 Pawn Pusher 4: The Future of Chess:

After all these time playing chess, writing something about it and studying a little bit the game, I have ONE CONCLUSION:

CHESS IS ALL ABOUT TROLLING YOUR OPPONENT.

 

Why ????

Here some facts and proofs:

1 - In chess foruns, 90% or more of the active users (in foruns) are trolls. Exemple:

NM adypady02 (a National Master a troll!! And himself asked to feature in the list of exemple-trolls (page 6 of this thread)) !!!

Erik (chess.com CEO), because of this thread (a big trolling thread):

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/community/erik-from-chess-com-here-ask-me-almost-anything

 

and a lot of people more...

 

2 - Chess has a TROLLING RULE: the pawn promotion rule.

I questioned this rule in my thread below:

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/pawn-promotion-rule-some-delicated-issues-fide-should-pronounce-about-it

If you check the thread , you will see a cartoon made in 2011:

About the questions I made in that thread, I can sum them in this picture:

This is how I see a pawn promotion: there is NO OTHER WAY to see in a different way.

 

This prove chess has at least ONE TROLLING RULE.

 

3 - There is a lot of ways to TROLL your opponent in chess.

See this game below: this a game played by professionals, top GM.

Shirov trolled his opponent with the famous FRIED LIVER ATTACK, a typical trolling behavior in chess.

 

Then, my conclusion is:

CHESS IS ALL ABOUT TROLLING YOUR OPPONENT.

 

I think FIDE must pronouce about it.

I am thinking about sending these questions to FIDE and I think all of you should do the same:

A beautiful piece of writing from the shallow end of the gene pool, amongst the many things it proves the most significant is that evolution can and does work in reverse also.

Wonderful trolling text.

You trolled in a beautiful way, using a nice text composition.

But I do not agree that my post means reverse of mankind's evolution: your trolling text is ANOTHER proof that chess foruns is all about trolling.

Damn, evolution doesn't have any direction!

I try to play the caro kann as an agressive opening.I wonder whether this counts as trolling or not.Am i playing the game correctly or has all my chess life been a big lie?

If you are trying to be agressive on chess, it means you are trying to become a BIG TROLL.

Is it good or not??? Depends!! What do you want for your life?

If you think it is nice to spend a lot of your time-life trolling someone in chess, that is ok.

Chess doesn't exist as has been proved on other threads, so the discussion is irrelevant...

Chess is a draw by concept.

It is easy to see: the kings can not take each other. The initial position (move zero) is a draw.

It means if both players did a perfect game, the game will end in a draw (with the 2 kings remaining by rule).

That is why chess is all about trolling the opponent. If you do not troll, you never win a game.

You need to troll your opponent to tease him to make a mistake OR, if you are a very good player (A BIG TROLL), you can always make a perfect move then you will win


I have showed in my other thread that you need to FRY THE BRAIN of the opponent to win.

Really? You don't like being recognized for your trolling? That's a great honor!

How is batgirl a troll? 

Avatar of Sitting-Duck

To be honest I have always secretly suspected Batgirl of being a sort of post modern neo-classic troll with intellectual tendencies.

Avatar of trysts

She's certainly an intellectual, but I've never seen her being annoying. You're not even a troll, Duck, in my view
