HOW TO USE THE QUEEN
Sort:
It seems that the queen is not full of use at the beginning of chess
E4 or D4 give the queen options to come out later, don't bring her out before the 8th or so move under risk of her being taken.
Develop minors and pawns, then defend your King, then, depending on the situation, brining out the queen could work.

And as VicountVonJames said, you should not bring the queen out too early. It often gets kicked around as your opponent develops his minor pieces.
look at lawandorderking's rating...

Here are some good openings that you should try:
You want to control the center of the board with your pieces, which is why a4 does nothing.
The best way to use your queen is to trade it for a more useful piece, like a knight. Otherwise, it will become a weakness that you will feel compelled to defend for the entire game, almost always causing you to lose. This is a common mistake among most unsuccessful chess players.

I agree. The queen can be developed early if it can't be attacked or chased around a lot which would cause you to lose a lot of tempi which is quite relevant in open positions.
The Queen has been moved early in the opening but It controls all the center squares and ensures Whites's space advantage.
White's queen could be attacked by c5 but this move weakens blacks pawn structure.
Vicount already mentioned all the important things.
I completely disagree. The queen should never be in the center, it has high range so it can attack from afar.

In that position (without a queenside knight) it’s ok to have the queen in the middle of the board. The only way for black to kick it would be c5, which as LawAndOrderKing said weakens the pawn structure.

Or maybe you do not understand the complex ideas of chess

So what EXACTLY is wrong with that position? What can black do?

The fact that you think I am joking shows your incompetence at chess. a5 stops the queen from being able to retreat to the powerful a5 square, and Qe5 wins a tempo by putting the black king in check. Any piece he blocks with will be pinned.
