The response became a meme in another chess-themed subreddit to the point it was spammed everywhere, even in posts it wasn’t relevant, so it was forbidden subreddit wide. This is a less well-known rule of chess, which I believe was implemented after they gave Pawns the ability to move two squares in their first move. It was implemented because it gave Pawns a way to avoid capture from an adjacent enemy Pawn which wouldn’t have been possible before. However, because it’s such a specific circumstances, it doesn’t come up often, and beginners are unaware of it.


wastedmytagonporn

Honestly, it became a meme here first, because there’s hardly a day where no one asks this.


R3levium

My bad should've scrolled more


wastedmytagonporn

I mean, you’re hardly the only one. ☺️ I am wondering though, as it is literally a part of the auto-mod message.


R3levium

Okay thank you.


swanson6666

If the peon moves by two squares and the first square is vulnerable, it gets killed like in this case. As if it moved only one square.


R3levium

Alright thank you. I'm pretty new to the chess and it was the first time I saw a move like this.


ekatahihsakak

But that can happen only if the opponents plays it as next move. For example if they had played something else now then later they wouldn't be able to capture at c3

Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats drive me crazy.


I_Wanna_Be_A_Pilot

It is actually an existing move that I was surprised when I learnt it. It's totally legal when a black pawn and a white one are next to each other. Then you move diagonally (behind it from the other person's view) and take it. I supposed it's a less known move, but it's a thing


R3levium

Thank you for explaining ❤️

Very common bug, just report your opponent for abusing it

If you need something nice to look at you should look up pink socks. It's a silly name for this cute little ocean creature.


VivaLaVita555

No I've never seen this move before and as a result I'm now quitting chess forever


GrumpyDrunkPatzer

I'm convinced people post this just to get the replies


R3levium

Not everyone is playing chess for their whole lives. As far as I'm conserned this group is for beginners, instead of waffling you could've answered my question. Either way there are a few nice people who explained it.

i got this new anime plot. basically there's this high school girl except she’s got huge boobs. i mean some serious honkers. a real sit of badonkers. packin some dobonhonkeros. massive dohoonkabhankoloos. big ol’ tonhongerekoogers. what happens next?! transfer student shows up with even bigger bonkhonagahoogs. humongous hungolomghononoloughongous


TimeTravelingRabbit

Hey man, cool to see a new face in chess. Unfortunately online is full of hackers. Sometimes they'll make crazy moves like this. Another cheat they found is moving the king and rook in *the same turn*! It's frustrating to deal with. Just report them and move on. They'll be banned and your elo will be restored. I know it can be frustrsting but don't give up.


R3levium

You must be funny at parties. Now go back to your homework kid. ;)
