Need good chess advice in five words or less

...or say anything without praising the mods first. NEVER refer to alcohol, but you may refer to an innocent player as a cheat in threads for weeks after he's been cleared. In addition, remember that players are allowed to have racist names like Jewkiller because of free speech, but DO NOT EVER refer to alcohol. Especially gin. I believe the French don't like gin, which is a shame. For them.

So, anyway, sorry about having mentioned the unmentionable and having had to have my comments removed. What a bad, bad, free-speech-loving English chap I am!

PS Remember there are kids using this site, so there are a few threads you might want to check out...
the names are racist --- not the person protesting the names you silly rabbit
#39, your posts in this topicare only getting removed because they're off-topic here. Is it so hard to post 5 empowering words specifically on chess? It would suck to remove all the tongue in cheek posts, but at least they ARE chess related and generally friendly, and often quite perceptive.

As for offensive names, you may notice most of those accounts are closed. That's because we close them and encourage people to report them if they feel they are offensive. We absolutely do not encourage such names.

FYI, discussing cheating investigations on the forum is not in the rules, and explicit mentions of someone's name will generally be removed. Don't be afraid to PM a mod or similar if you think someone is pushing it too far.

That's all I'll say on the matter, back on topic everyone.
