Nothing gets me going quite like having a Knight on the b8 square.
Am I the only one who thinks this is an inappropriate title on a website that kids play on?

I did report it, maybe they just removed it from the front page.
@CkickyCheck your title is very inappropriate. I shall report you for this.
The word fetish can be used in nonsexual ways without sexual context, meaning obsession, it just fits best imo
from https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/fetish
an interest in an activity or object that makes someone spend an unreasonable amount of time doing it or thinking about it:
I think its pretty obvious, that here there is no sexual context, i mean we are on a chess website, with a chess piece in the thumbnail and name, and if you read the blog its about chess game analysis
b8 Knight Obsession doesnt roll off the tongue well, at least in my opinion. it doesnt flow, there is like a pause before the word obsession, and its longer. if you still think im in the wrong idk what else can i say
Even assuming you meant the second definition of "fetish" I think the vast majority of people don't see it that way - Especially given the heart graphic you made lmao.
If I was teaching kids chess and said "I have a fetish for knights on the b8 square" - I think that would be pretty inappropriate - even if I tell the parents "I mean definition #2."
All I'm saying is since many kids use this website - I think keeping it kid friendly is not a hard thing to do..
Not a huge deal or anything just thought I'd point it out.
I clearly agree with the great player @CkickyCheck
"Fetish" is just weird term to use on a front-page blog for a website with kids.
