The idea of an infinite dimension on the board is interesting in my opinion.

That may be, but that is not what is described here.

Ridiculous means deserving mockery or being absurd. It is none of them.

Even the author disgrees with you.  The page is entitled "Chess On A Ridiculously Long Board".

The game we have here is not good as only Rooks and Queens can cross it

I would consider that a pretty significant problem.  I agree with Fergus' conclusion.  There are already at least two viable infinte variants on this site, and there may be room for the invention of others, but this page - as it stands - will not be published.
