Also, some things I've noted based purely on the forum etiquette:
- This forum seems a lot more mature and respectful than 99% of forums.
- I do recognize some users on the forums from 2022, like
@DukeDog (consider this a compliment)
One final question: Are "forum games" allowed?
Some examples are counting, and Ban Hammer (you come up with a reason for the person above you to be banned from the forums).
I don't know if those can be considered spam, and I don't want to get warned 5 minutes after returning to Lichess, so are they allowed?
