I feel morally sad when I post on the forum, no one agrees with me, I am on the verge of depression

@TrainingOTB said in #25:

"just one positive opinion or one person who agrees with me that would make me very happy."
Just sit on that sentence in silence and think deeply as if you would play chess... you really want to allow some random person internet opinions or be it real life opinions to decide whether you will live happy life or not. Who is deciding your mood? Is it you in charge of it or someone else? If you lose 10 games in a row, the rage "comes", is this rage an external or something inside of you, which you are the boss of? Your ideas got disliked on some internet forum, and sadness arrives, where does that travel from? Inside or outside? Investigate it, unless you want all the time depend on some external tides (sunny = happy, rainy =sad, got a job = happy, lost a job =sad, somebody said I am smart = happy, someone said I am stup.d = sad etc)...
Depending your life on external opinios is madness, just go into it, go deep on how person's opinions arise, and then multiply it by millions of random life scenarios etc. and you want to base your depression or not depression on it?

I agree that it is true that simple opinions on the internet should not affect my mood

but we are human and we have feelings

To take an example, if they tell you that you are stupid every day, I doubt that you will continue your life while being happy...

you will inevitably have a feeling of sadness, it's an extreme example, but I have already experienced this situation because I experienced school bullying when I was young

Every day I was called Down syndrome, I was struck

then the responsibles punished me with overtime for violence against my colleagues even though I was beaten every day and it was obvious

in sport I had an average of 0.5, because no one wanted me in the group

it's because of that, but their justification on that, I don't remember

I'm sure I received so much hate that it exceeds the chess combinations I've played so far

so as I have a difficult past, receiving a lot of negative opinion is like the straw that breaks the camel's back

most people here are not wicked

It is normal for people to disagree with answers, that is the principle of this forum

It's just that I feel like I've never been right about anything.

if in real life someone contradicts you, and then you write on the forum to talk about failures and you only get negative responses and who says you are wrong

you will be sad, the feeling of never being right, plus the fact that I was a victim of harassment in the past

If someone told me what the last wicked sentence in a forum would be, it would be "you don't deserve your rating", which was said in a recent forum.

but that's in the past because I'm starting to write much more often on the forum and following this message in this forum I have a lot of support and positive response

In any case, thank you very much for writing what you wrote.

@Ludo2001 People will give you a thumbs down because: Reasons

You've earned the right to not care what people think.

Even a clown like me can say The Grob is as good as any of that e4 crap and not care what people think.

Well done to France for winning tonight. Hope we smash you in the semi finals :)

I'm English, and only using paragraphs to annoy that other lad.

that results in a position that IS identical to the position after 1 e4 c6 2 d3 d5 3 e5 Bf5 4 d4 e6 5 c3 c5. Since White is unlikely to want to reach the position resulting from
1 e4 c6 2 d3 d5 3 e5 Bf5 4 d4 e6 5 c3 c5,
White is also unlikely to want to reach the position resulting from 1 e4 d5 2 e5 c5 3 c3 Bf5 4 d4 e6 (the line given by YOU). ...
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
... assuming there is an error in sequence 1 and not sequence 2, it makes sense to want to reach the final position by selecting sequence 2 and not sequence 1 ...
If White is at the beginning of a game and wants to avoid reaching a particular position, I think that most of us would want to avoid any sequence that takes White from the beginning of the game to that position.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
... in this sequence 2 there is no bad movement ...
In the absence of any improvement identified by you for the line, 1 e4 d5 2 e5 c5 3 c3 Bf5 4 d4 e6, I suspect that most would identify 2 exd5 (instead of 2 e5) as the way to avoid the resulting position.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
... I do not see more than 0.6 disadvantage in both resulting positions ...
Both? As far as I can tell, we are only discussing one resulting position, and it sounds like something to avoid if one has an alternative (1 e4 d5 2 exd5) that gets to an approximate .3 advantage for White.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
... any opening can be played as long as it does not go below 0.5 even if another alternative is better
Any opening involving legal moves “can be played”. However, White might nevertheless want to avoid 1 e4 d5 2 e5 c5 3 c3 Bf5 4 d4 e6.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
I can even prove that even the great players in the world can play even very bad openings in terms of error when they have other much better alternatives. and that he manages to win with
to go to the extreme I will show the example of an opening which has an error in the first movement
[[Event "PRO League Group Stage (rapid)"] [Date "2019.03.13"] [Result "1-0"] [White "Hikaru Nakamura"] [Black "Alexey Sarana"] [ECO "A00"] [WhiteElo "2749"] [BlackElo "2630"] 1 g4 (0.15 -> -0.81) Inaccuracy. Nf3 was best. ... https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1962982 ]
g4! how can we explain that such an opening was played at a high level?
Perhaps a partial explanation would involve noting a 2749 player with a 2630 opponent in a “rapid” game.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
g4 unlike e5, it's a big mistake from the first move and in a concrete way (grob:-1) and not objectively ...
And I imagine that there will continue to be those who regard 1 e4 d5 2 e5 as a mistake.

@Ludo2001 said in #19:

... in e5 there can be interesting lines,1. e4 d5 2. e5 c5 3. c3 d4 4. Bb5+ Bd7 5. e6 Bxb5 6. exf7+ Rxf7 7. Qb3+ e6 8. Qxb5 the black king can no longer castling.
@kindaspongey said in #21:
If Black plays 3...Bf5 instead of 3...d4, one does not get this line.
@Ludo2001 said in #31:
... on lichess from elo 1800 to 2500 d4 it is the 2nd most played line with 20%
Nevertheless, players, wanting to avoid the 1 e4 d5 2 e5 c5 3 c3 Bf5 4 d4 e6 position, might understandably opt for 1 e4 d5 2 exd5.

Thumbs up or down in the forums are like the rating in lichess. Irrelevant.

And your mood is irrelevant to others as well.

So, its a you problem, an ego problem. You give way too much importance to what others say about you. Nobody knows you, you are irrelevant to the world, so why do you let the world affect you?

Now, if you cant take criticism, whether is called or uncalled. Why keep posting? You already know its not going your way, remove the problem.

Supposons que l'on peut se mettre d'accord sur deux ou trois choses:

  1. Plastic Bertrand est le meilleur vedette de la musique pop francais. Je sais, il est belge, mais peu import.
  2. Celebrons la victoire de Marine le Pen !

Double check the forum title; I think you meant to post this somewhere else.
