Oh ya like 500 rated players require a IM to teach them
You simply dont have the positional, tactical and planning knowledge to coach anybody
For official coaching that costs maybe over $20 what you said might make sense (and I’d maybe agree with it too), but come on… they’re just free lessons. This person is just trying to help their friends get better at the game, no cost. If you don’t want to think about it as coaching, just think about it as goodwill and teaching.
Some people just try to get under ur skin and it worked on me once and I got muted for a day whatever. I kinda get that one. That was a few months ago and then the next bad word wasn’t harassing and muted for a week. So now I’m assuming if there’s one more it’s a month of muted? Waay overboard esp for a paying member on a 13+ site. I’ve also had a few people I give tips to muted after we played and we have no idea why. Maybe Elon musk will buy chess.com and fix this
Is this officially a 13+ site? (Question for @Martin_Stahl)
because I am technically above that number, but I have friends who aren’t (some who are 12, 11, all the way down to 7… maybe even 6 but idk if that kid plays on .com or only l1chess).
just curious because there are definitely a lot of members below there.
