General Guidelines
---- Nous avons besoin d'un traduction français!
Some Basics
1. Under Board "Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQs) there are 3 sections dealing with General Forum Usage, User Profile Features, and Reading and Posting Messages. These deal with everything from Avatars to Your Notifications. Most general technical questions are covered there. Here is a link to the FAQs. https://forum.chesstalk.com/help
2. Consider using the SEARCH button if you are looking for information. You may find your question has already been answered in a previous thread.
3. If you've looked for an answer to a question, and not found one, then you should consider asking your question in a new thread. For example, there have already been questions and discussion regarding: how to do chess diagrams (FENs); crosstables that line up properly; and the numerous little “glitches” that every new site will have.
4. Read pinned or sticky threads, like this one, if they look important. This applies especially to newcomers.
5. Read the thread you're posting in before you post. There are a variety of ways to look at a thread. These are covered under “Display Modes”.
6. Thread titles: please provide some details in your thread title. This is useful for a number of reasons. It helps ChessTalk members to quickly skim the threads. It prevents duplication of threads. And so on.
7. Unnecessary thread proliferation (e.g., deliberately creating a new thread that duplicates existing discussion) is discouraged. Look to see if a thread on your topic may have already been started and, if so, consider adding your contribution to the pre-existing thread. However, starting new threads to explore side-issues that are not relevant to the original subject is strongly encouraged. A single thread on the Canadian Open, with hundreds of posts on multiple sub-topics, is no better than a dozen threads on the Open covering only a few topics. Use your good judgment when starting a new thread.
8. If and/or when sub-forums are created, please make sure to create threads in the proper place.
Debate
9. Give an opinion and back it up with a reason. Throwaway comments such as "Game X pwnz because my friend and I think so!" could be considered pointless at best, and inflammatory at worst.
10. Try to give your own opinions, not simply those copied and pasted from reviews or opinions of your friends.
Unacceptable behavior and warnings
11. In registering here at ChessTalk please note that the same or similar rules apply here as applied at the previous Boardhost message board. In particular, the following content is not permitted to appear in any messages:
* Racism
* Hatred
* Harassment
* Adult content
* Obscene material
* Nudity or pornography
* Material that infringes intellectual property or other proprietary rights of any party
* Material the posting of which is tortious or violates a contractual or fiduciary obligation you or we owe to another party
* Piracy, hacking, viruses, worms, or warez
* Spam
* Any illegal content
* unapproved Commercial banner advertisements or revenue-generating links
* Any link to or any images from a site containing any material outlined in these restrictions
* Any material deemed offensive or inappropriate by the Board staff
12. Users are welcome to challenge other points of view and opinions, but should do so respectfully. Personal attacks on others will not be tolerated. Posts and threads with unacceptable content can be closed or deleted altogether. Furthermore, a range of sanctions are possible - from a simple warning to a temporary or even a permanent banning from ChessTalk.
Helping to Moderate
13. 'Report' links (an exclamation mark inside a triangle) can be found in many places throughout the board. These links allow users to alert the board staff to anything which is offensive, objectionable or illegal. Please consider using this feature if the need arises.
Advice for free
14. You should exercise the same caution with Private Messages as you would with any public posting.

1/Pls note 2011CYCC early bird ended, The registration fee will be 225$ from now, no on site registration.
2/Sheraton Hotel room already booked 90%, Best Western still have available rooms. Special rate with code : 2011CYCC will end on 05.June.

4/Make sure not only sent cheque to us also sent registration to 2011cycc@gmail.com
5/Rating of registered Players will update soon in 2011cycc.ca
Seems to me that the YCC system has proven itself viable in its initial year, despite the inaction of some provincial affiliates ( I believe the 5 year average for CYCC's has been about 160 ).
For next year, there must be more interaction by CFC with these provincial affiliates to try to support them in holding a YCC.
It seems that many juniors have played across the country in the YCC system, more than the total playing under the previous " open " system.
1/ Extent hotel reservation to 15.June with special rate, code: 2011CYCC
2/Early bird registration payment due 01.June with stamp date, For OYCC players will extent to 10.June mail out your cheque to have 175$. otherwise will be 225$
3/ Return policy, No Registration payment return unless family emergecy and Dr.'s note
4/ Renew CFC membership before 2011CYCC.
Thanks

The 2011 CYCC Organizing Committee has the right to allow 3 local players into the CYCC (“Wild Cards”) per each category at its own discretion.
At this time the Organizing Committee is considering “Wild Cards” to be distributed among the players from the GTA who did not qualify through YCC’s or through any other method.
All players from the GTA who are interested please email your request to the Organizing Committee at 2011cycc@gmail.com
1/PMCA just made a donation to 2011 CYCC for total amount of $1000.
Thanks to David and Philip for all your effort to support Canadian Youth Chess. PMCA is the first institution which supported us for the very first YCC!
