Why can't I kill the knight?

OK guys, so I am relatively new to chess. That being said- why on earth would I not be able to kill a knight when it gets on my side of the board? It was extremely early in the game but I couldnt kill it with my pawn, my queen, or any other piece. Is that just a rule I don't understand or something? Or was he hacking?... (Note: my king wasn't in check.) Thanks so much!! :)

I have never heard of that rule. Maybe your opponent meant it is unlikely that you will be able to kill his knight when he gets on your side of the board because, he can move around so much.

It does not make much sense what you say sincerely.

The OP must be glad he's still getting answers after more than 7 years.

You can look in his game history, it's not that hard. June 24, 2015

Taking the knight would have put your king in check, so it was illegal.
