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

* 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.
Trudeau and Health Canada were given the opportunity to sit down with the scientists and Dr's within this group and openly debate and
discuss the medical merits and work out their differences. This was offered before the protestors arrived in Ottawa, It was offered from day 1.
Trudeau described the group as a Nazi supporters carrying confederate flags and other fringe groups. You were there, Neil, is that what it looked
like to you?
That false characterization by Trudeau was simply a rationalization for not meeting with these people. If you want to blame someone, blame Trudeau, who ended
up having to do what they wanted anyways. The protestors fully expected a resolution during the protest phase.
Many Canadian flags were flying in Ottawa this weekend. Protesters marched with them and truckers festooned their rigs with them, and some Ottawa residents attached them from their cars in support of the protests.
However, it is an affront to all Canadians that the Nazi flag was flying in their midst. It is surreal that racist groups like the National Socialist Black Metal (Aryan black metal) movement felt sufficiently emboldened to proudly wear their jackets at the protests.
But don't get me wrong, Sid ... I'm not a fan of this Trudeau.
Sorry Sid, I thought you were referring to Trudeau's general comment about the group as Nazi supporters carrying confederate flags and other fringe groups.
I didn't venture down there at all.
Perhaps Brad Thomson could provide a first hand account of the complexion of the trucker's occupying group.
I was not there but I watched many live feeds and did not see anything during those few weeks that the MSM claimed. Below is a memorable exchange between Trudeau and a Jewish Member of parliament who accused her of standing with those that hold Swastikas and Confederate flags, Brad did actually post here in the first days of the protest what he saw when he went down there and did not describe anything like this, he said it was peaceful and a party like atmosphere.
Excess deaths in Canada between when the injections were rolled out and now far higher than pandemic levels were. Excess deaths in Canada were 16,333 or .04% in 2020, but all of a sudden, after the jab rollout starting Dec 2020, excess deaths soared in 2021 to 33,113 and up until July 2022 in Canada are 21,063.
The same horrific stats play out in countries around the world post-vaccination. Most countries stopped recording death by vaccination status, but the UK still does, and across all age groups, the unvaccinated are way better off than the vaccinated in terms of mortality rates. There is no reason to believe that the results are different elsewhere.
These protests were not about a trucker's dispute over working conditions but a true fight against Genocide that the WEF corrupt Governments around the world are perpetrating. and continue to do so here in Canada.
Official reports published by the Governments of the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK & most of Europe, as per the link above, confirm 1.8 million excess deaths have been recorded since the mass roll-out of the Covid-19 injections.
Trudeau is a corrupt murderer and is directly responsible for the prolonged protests. Literally fighting for one's life is not a "mistake." We are in a war for our lives, you just don't know it yet. Wars are never pleasant or convenient for either side.
Our Canadian natural resources, our Canadian citizens says otherwise. It does and we do. We got it going on. We always have. We simply need to be ourselves ... to be Canadian.
Shame on PM Justin Trudeau for trying to suppress our resources and our talents ... for whatever miscalculated or misguided reasons. His want for globalization has greatly lessened our Canadian worth ... our Canadian quality of being independent.
Of relying on our own.
First and foremost ... Canada provides and protects it's own. That's called, Community. That's called, Family.
A responsibility seemingly not shared by PM Justin Trudeau.
All our natural resources together with all our amazing ability to create and manufacture product ... that's what Canada does best. Everything else just naturally follows. Health care, education ... etcetera.
FWIW ... I'm a 5th generation Canadian ... I've been there and I've done that.
I'm not a fan of this Trudeau.
Simply vote him out.

Yes, he is one of many targets, just like Adolf Hitler was one of many targets in WW2. Voters did not sign up for a genocidal WEF agenda that has infested many
Western governments around the world as Klaus Schwab so proudly points out.https://forum.chesstalk.com/forum/ch...055#post223055 NDP supporters did not sign up for the liberal platform, and Liberal supporters did not sign up for the NDP platform, This was political trickery, and the same trick was deployed by Hitler in 1933 when he was elected as a minority government and formed a coalition to acquire dictatorial powers after the election.
According to the medical establishment, having my 5 vaccine shots will decrease substantially the negative consequences of the disease.
Do the "Naturalists" agree with this?
I do understand (If I'm wrong, correct me) that it is the position of the "Naturalists" that the negative consequences of the vaccine may kill me first.

~ Bob A (T-S/P)
Both those pro-vaccine and anti-"vaccine" lack nuance, imo.
If I were 87, I would have gotten all the shots.
If I were 27, I would have gotten none of the shots.
I'm 57, so very reluctantly I got the first two shots.
I've had Omicron (I think), it wasn't particularly bad, I felt a bit under the weather for two days, so I won't be getting any more shots.
At least the anti-"vaccine" crowd doesn't go around demanding that no one get the vaccine. Your circumstances are unique to you. Talk to your doctor or other medical professionals that you trust.

Hi Bob,
Many "naturalists" got the injections but do not necessarily agree that climate change is man made. Others declined the injections. but believe climate change is anthropogenic. Be careful with labeling people.
I know it is hard to accept that the "medical establishment" has utterly failed humanity in the last three years and consistently lied however that is what has come to pass. I personally would not recommend the shots for any age group and held that position three years ago before the rollout for four reasons:
1) The type of antibodies an injection into the deltoid muscle induces are for antigens in the bloodstream. The main point of entry for an aerosolized virus is the nasal passage, where the body's first line of defense is mucosal antibodies that these types of injections do not induce. Hence it is biologically impossible for this type of injection to prevent infection or transmission.
2) The virus mutates much faster than the injections the variety of SARsCOV2 is tailored for. Hence by the time the injection is released, the virus it is made for is long gone. This is true for the bivalent vaccine as well. This makes the vaccine utterly useless and gives nothing but risks of adverse events with no benefits whatsoever.
Low neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1, and XBB.1 by parental mRNA vaccine or a BA.5-bivalent booster
"however, the BA.5-bivalent-booster did not produce robust neutralization against the newly emerged BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1, or XBB.1"
