Just my opinion: I personally am not interested in Fischer Random Chess, Shuffle
Chess, Chinese Chess or any variation apart from classical chess. I've never
played a single game of FRC, neither on the board nor on the computer, and I
doubt I ever will.

However, I respect the rights of anyone to have an interest in variant forms of
chess. Posts on this subject are definitely on-topic in this forum, and
everybody should feel free to contribute or not contribute in such threads
without having to be attacked by extremists on either side.
