I dont understand. I come here to play chess. Its a great site for that. I would understand threads on chess, but everything else? When I need someone to talk to I tend to do it in person. Do you people ever leave the house? I'm not trying to offend anyone, I just dont get it.

Yeah! Why on earth do people use phones as well?! What's the point of e-mails, faxes, text messages, semaphore, sign language and braille?!

In fact lets just throw body language out of the window too! We should all just talk to each face-to-face.

BAN ALL OTHER FORMS OF COMMUNICATION!!!!

Its not the reason I visit the site .. but there's a bunch of reasonably smart people using the site for intellectual stimulation (chess at least) - and for me its nice to throw around a little wit, humour or just plain contact from time to time.

But, I do notice that many posters don't play a whole lot of chess (and I accept that my participation is miserly compared to some) and do a lot of posting ... and most are non-subs.

S'fine by me ... but I sort of agree - why come to RHP to do that?

Presumably you read the threads otherwise you would not know they were not chess related.

So many questions to ask.

Why did you start this thread which is not chess related? πŸ˜•

Do you deep down want to become an active participant in the forums?

Do you ever leave the house?

Do you never call a mate on the telephone and talk to them?

Are you any good? {Temporarily borrowed from Bowmann πŸ˜‰}

I do it to irrate Shavixmir, Redmike, Ragnorak. No1Marauder, Howardgee, and a few others who don't come to mind at the moment. Oh damn. Sorry about that Clifflanding. You too.

Another sucker conned out of a perfectly good twenty nine dollars and ninety five cents. Just think, you could have had a nice steak dinner for that.

People post in the forums to relieve sexual tension and to get the hormones flowing. It's that simple.

i post in the forums for humour. Not too many ways to make a strictly chess related thread funny. Most of my posts come in between the breaks my opponents have when playing. When my subscription goes through, i won't have to worry about that as much. i can't speak for everyone else, but i have a life outside of RHP that involves a lot of communication.

i think these forums are for making the RHP better to play in. Kind of like toys at a day-care.
