It should be chessbeginners.com instead of chesskids.com

As today top chess players are in their 20's and also several evidences showing that a kid can learn faster than an adult, it does not make sense to me about chesskids.com.

 

In other words,  chesskids.com is restricting the best potential players meanwhile neglecting protection of adults beginners who are the real underdogs in chess.

 

It come to my mind when a friend messaged to me that he(she) learned chess in a few days ago and started playing in chesskid.com . I felt a bit surprised but I understand that chess.com is neglecting beginner protection and he( she) should play in chesskid.com.

 

What do you think?

This is true, many beginners start on chesskid so they should either make chess.com more beginner friendly or change the branding of chesskid

That is false, in fact, many kids play much better than adult beginners. We need a nice and protected environment for adult beginners to learn, without being called kids

The forum should split from the kids instead!, not the gameplay server!

I willl take 5 games from chesskids.com vs 5 games from adult games, can you tell which games are from the kids? No way!

 

You can only tell the games are from beginners , intermediate or expert etc!

The purpose of Chesskid is not to provide a haven for beginners, but a safe and fun playing and learning environment for children.
