Originally posted by RahimKWhy? So you can start another "teaching" thread, then complain that nobody is trying hard enough to deserve your wonderful instruction AGAIN? You brought the negativity onto yourself dude. Some people may not have been here long enough to remember, but you know that it is true.
How about you suggest things that many ppl can benefit from?
Originally posted by RahimKBecause no-one's asking for another general improvement thread; however someone did take the time to partially annotate a game in the hopes that a higher rated player would point out some of his mistakes and suggest improvement. Seems like a good thing to do, eh?

Originally posted by RahimKI remember that there was a thread were you posted tests (games were we had to guess the moves or find tactics, after which you posted the rest of the moves and analyzed our variations). I think it was in one of your chess learning threads. That was fun, as well as useful. You could also write about some basic endings' ideas. Of course you are the one to decide what to write, but if what you write is useful, people will appreciate it. That would be much better than pointless flaming.
Suggest a few things you want to learn about.

Basic Endings....What about a how to mate thread?
Starting from scratch? 2 R+K vs K, ...., 2B+K v K, till B+N+K v K?
I seen several games on here where ppl still don't know how to checkmate with 2 rooks or R+K vs K.
Originally posted by RahimKWe already have a couple of those in the backlogs. Dragon Fire once wrote a B+N+K vs. K and I believe Ragnorak wrote a 2B vs. K thread. How about simply providing analysis to players seeking help?
Ah the guess a move thread.

Chess is chess is chess. I've played some great games on the blitz site. And when there's no better alternative, why not?
Plus there is always TV, Basketball, biking, driving, etc...
