Covid-19 Discussion (moderated)

not the purpose the forums are for

You don't like it at all because it hurt your feelings!

exactly

This is one thread within the chess.com forum. This is one topic out of thousands. There are those on here who, in between chess moves, like discussing subjects other than chess. You, on the other hand, are just trolling.

u guys how old are u

you have 93700 cases

in canada

we have 163k so sad my uncle masdood has covid and my aunt we were planning to move to germany and get me enrolled in the sports acadeny rhere but covid ruined

thats why

Two big city had most of the cases....and the one where i live was by far the worst...and it's still very bad in some parts of the city.

Sorry to hear that....

@Marie-AnneLiz as I say the link I gave is just opinion, and one that I more or less share. For me the enforced distancing is impractical and largely a nonsense. I have said earlier in this thread about how my nieces birthday was upcoming and how I shouldn't hug them according to the guidelines. Well I did hug them, and I think it was well worth the utterly miniscule risk. Another personal example, last night I was clocking out of work and one of my female colleagues was in absolute floods of tears. I fetched a cup of tea (which solves everything because we're British) whilst 3 other ladies consoled her with hugs and closeness. It was instinctive because we are human and this is how we are. Nobody was thinking about the virus, the only thought was to help her. It turns out she had just been told her father had an adverse reaction to his cancer medication and she may lose him. We need to do this stuff to retain what makes us human. Living in constant fear of potential disaster is no kind of living. Again, I know nothing about anything really, but this is my opinion. 

my plans 4 future are ruined my dad's mango shop is closed our family business

and u said i knew nothing about u

it really hurt me since chess.com is the place i seek refuge from these unprecdented times

That's fine, but if you are supposedly seeking refuge from the very things this thread is discussing, and you have nothing to say about the outbreak yourself, there's doesn't seem to be any reason for you to be posting here.

i did

about how it ruined my family business and my education you guys just instead of being so cold hearted i thought you would give me faith

Sure, tell us about your dad's mango shop and daily life in Turkey during the outbreak.  Real information about the outbreak and how it is affecting people around the world is more than welcome.  Just be aware that your 19 days since creation, your game history, and your posting thus far does not paint the most genuine picture.  Also, please try to post less one-liner posts, if you would.

What are the current restrictions/measures you are seeing in Turkey for the outbreak?  How do you feel about the response there?  Why are you bigdog4life?  What prompted you to begin your first chess.com account during the outbreak?  Is internet access solid or spotty where you are?  Are you near Ankara?  Istanbul?  How has the refugee situation been since the outbreak started?

internet acess solid near instanbul refugee situation controlled  you cant go out have to wear masks no restraunts  i chose bigdog4 life cuz it just popped up in m head as username  i wanted to make use of my time during quaantine
