Any kid under 3’ 9” tall should be banned from this site. They are simply too short to play here. Kids, no tippy toes!

How is height and if they're allowed to play chess related? Shouldn't anyone who's playing fairly, whether they are playing their first game or if they are Magnus Carlsen be allowed to play chess?

1. They are too short. 2. They are too fast. 3. They are too good. 2. Silly avatars. 3. Bruh? 4. Need reassurance. (Yes, 2700 blitz is good for a three year old.) 5. Converse in acronyms instead of words. Bruh, guess this one. GCYD. 5. Little sense of humor.

So what's the problem? And this is not respectful in my opinion although I'm not a kid.

Most children simply play chess on here and do not engage with the forums. Often the kids that do visit the forums are doing harmless stuff like advertising their club or making blogs about their day. I’m 12 years old, the site is an integral part of my life, and I use it to study chess. There is no reason that I or other minors should be banned, although children who are not mature enough to use the internet safely should not be able to chat or participate in forums, I’ll admit that. Although it’s hard to discern how mature a kid is, and hard to know a user’s age. Also, brother, that’s not 5 reasons! That’s 8. The 1st 3 reasons and the 5th one (the second 3rd one I guess is how it’s labeled) don’t even make sense, or at least not drawbacks. Children get to be good at chess, and “bruh?” is not a valid reason.

Happy chessing, enjoy playing 3000 12 year olds and 2000 3 year olds! Such is chess, even I won’t be able to catch up with these children, and I’m also young :)

Kids under 10 should be:

A: Chat-locked. They can only use certain phrases and emojis.

B: Have different servers. They should be matched against other minors and not adults.

C: Be automatically redirected to ChessKid if they are spamming on forums/throwing games/faking their age
