I have found that they completly dont know how to use their queen. They bring her out way too early, capitalizing on this mistake is so easy its not even funny. All I have to do is keep attacking her and this puts me way ahead in development. You should realize that the queen is:
THE WEAKEST PIECE ON THE BOARD! She is easily bullied by minor pieces.
Also, Ive found that alot of sub 1200 players use their pieces unwisely, camel clutch moved his knight three times before moving another piece. The rule of thumb in development is:
To not move a piece twice before youve moved other pieces once.
Get this through your head people.

Im 1475
Nevertheless, it's 1. Rude for you to talk like that to players with less experience than yourself, and 2. Unreasonable for someone less than 300 points higher to tell others that they're playing stupidly. Someone higher than you could tell you the same kinds of things, but they refrain from doing so.
Originally posted by HomerJSimpsonI agree with ark and the statement that the queen is the weakest piece of the board because it can be attacked is ridiculous.

Let's see how good you are when you will have played some more games on the site and not only against 1100 and 1200s.
okay okay. clearly some words of wisdom are needed here.
only some problems most 1200 subs have:
-unable to spot elementary tactics, in other words, hanging pieces and missing simple forks, pins, skewers, etc...
-playing kind of "hope-chess" ; setting elementary traps and making empty or clearly visible threats (in order to win game instantly) instead of making best moves. this is the reason why 1.e4 e5 2.Dh5 is still pretty popular in sub1200 level.
-breaking opening principles; moving too many pawns, moving queen too early, developing only few pieces, etc...
-unable to deal with pressure and unable to keep cool head when defending or attacking.
