Discussion Forum

Enter here!

Welcome to the Chessville discussion forum! Our goal is to create a friendly, informal chess community where we can freely exchange information & advice, help each other improve, and share our love for the game. The forum also serves as a place where Chessville visitors can interact directly with the Chessville team, to ask us questions about our site or make suggestions for improvements or future additions.

All kinds of chess players are welcome here, especially novices and intermediates! Like any community though, there are rules:

Intentional rudeness, personal attacks, flame wars, or overtly offensive messages are unacceptable. It's OK to disagree with each other or even argue, but do so politely, please. Offensive messages will be immediately deleted and the person posting them will risk having his or her right to participate in this forum suspended.

Be patient with beginners and lower rated players. We were ALL chess beginners at one time. We want to build a community where higher rated players share their wisdom & experience and help lower rated players improve.

Finally, we have a NO-SPAM policy. By all means, share links to chess related sites with us that most members will benefit from, but DO NOT join this forum just to blatantly advertise your site. Regular members who've taken the time to become part of the community are more than welcome to tell us about great sites they've found or even those they've created themselves, but using this forum to bombard its members with disruptive messages or SPAM is not acceptable.

If this sounds good to you, then jump in! Get involved in the discussions, share your experiences and your love of the game, ask questions, give your opinions, get to know fellow chess enthusiasts, make friends, and become part of our chess community!

[WARNING!!! When you first visit our forum, you may enter as a guest, but if you want to post messages, you will need to register a user name. This is free: you do NOT need to pay any sort of fee to participate in our forum, though you do have the option to pay for certain extra features if you wish (this money does not go to the Chessville Team, but rather Delphi.com, our forum service provider). You may see a page that discusses the various pay services, and it may sound as though you need to register for one of them, but you do not. Simply scroll down to the bottom of that page and click "No Thanks" to skip past that page and enter our forum. ALSO: Delphi apparently requires cookies, so if you have your pc set to reject cookies, you will probably not be able to enter the Forum.
