    For the 50 move rule being removed there are certain positions that nether player can make any moves except for king moves. So the only way the game can end is for a 3 fold or a players clock running out. It seems like a necessary rule to stop the players from just making infinite moves with literally no chance of the game not ending in a draw.

    Stalemate in my opinion isn’t an useless rule. It makes player who’s losing to still calculating new moves so the game can be ended in a Draw. If stalemate rule weren’t exist, one player could just resign or play random moves since he knows he is going to lose, which makes the game felt boring. Player with advantage will also be extra careful with his moves.

    Stalemate is an extremely useful rule. There are certain situations in with the player with less material stalemates the one with more. There is also the situation where you have 2 knights and can only give a stalemate and also the situation where there is a pawn on the a or h file with the king blocking it which ends in a stalemate

    Stalemate is actually very cool. It makes a winning side be careful and make the losing side a chance to win. It's really only affected 2 knights endgame. 50 moves rule is actually fine, it makes some knight vs 2 bishops endgame a draw which can help losing side a chance to draw, but you still must play like the only move which is pretty hard, but it doesn't affected the game that much so I didn't mind. It helps chess to not be too long.

    50 move rule is necessary, otherwise in a dead position players will just make moves and it will become a contest of willpower and endurance instead of intelligence.

    but stalemate is important because being given a win endgames like king and pawn vs king is kinda unfair considering you most likely didn't "dominate" your opponent. Also, gambits would be played less because being a pawn down becomes a lot more important because a stalemate would be a win.

    I don't agree on the last one. I understand your point, but I think if a player can mate but doesn't know how, for example, if a beginner only has a rook and doesn't know how to mate with it, the game will continue until someone loses in time, which is boring.

    Instead of touch move rule there should be lift move rule. If a player completely lifts a piece it should play it. These moves are necessary otherwise player would keep lifting the piece and put them back to the same square, once in a while player could lift a piece and pretend to put it back but cleverly place on another square and then make a move thus playing 2 moves in 1 turn.

    stalemate should be a draw, because checkmate was a a form to win because you had to capture the king in the original game, so if you checkmate any move you do would end up capturing the king, so it is a win, meanwhile stalemate doesnt, because the king isn't in check and doesn't have any other legal moves

    Bro you are contradicting yourself. You said you often times need more then 50 moves to position your pieces and then said that you never arive for the 50 move rule to be needed. It is needed otherwise to many engames would end by one player flagging the other in a compleetly drawing game

    *I like the stalemate, I'd be beating the crap out of my opponent with a massive piece advantage and thus let my guard down and end up accidentally stalemating them.

    Chess has existed for over a millenia and many many experts playing the game understand why the rules have to be like they are. I just don’t see how you as a player that doesn’t even understand the game, say how some rules should be removed. Everything has a point. Stalemating by mistake doesn’t exist above the 2000 elo point at all, it even makes the game better when there is a position that the losing player can force a stalemate..
