Does there exist sth like "noplay list" for live chess? I mean a way to permanently avoid playing against specific player (not seeing his seeks and match requests, having my seeks protected from being accepted by him).
(looking for a way to honor my opponent who, once he recognized his position as lost, decided to wait out 8 minutes of his remaining time instead of resigning or finishing the game)
See here.
But this seems to be about correspondence chess, not live chess...
This really needs to be addressed. There are players who make a point of being obnoxious, and members should be allowed to make sure that they do not play that person again.
TadDude is correct about his link. It's the only way to do what you're talking about.
Some people wanted to start one, but it's just too easy to abuse.
The site says that you cant single out people that way.
I'm sure some members might have some lists that you can look at.
What do you mean abuse?
What do you mean, single out?
If somebody is obscene or difficult, why should I be obliged to play them?
Exactly. All a noplay list would do is make sure that, outside of a tournament, you would never play a game with that person, and you would not see each other's sought games. Every other site I have played on that has live chess (outside of Yahoo and such) has the ability to do this.
The abuse comes in when I have to abort several games in a row because the same person accepts my sought game over and over after they were rude to me, and I do not want to play them again.
I agree that we need personal noplay lists. I kind of assumed that would be part of the premium package, at least. I don't see how a noplay list is abusive. I just want a way of filtering out people who have been rude.
In live, click on the user name in the notification area and choose the block player option. That person's name is added to your noplay list. The list can also be managed here: http://www.chess.com/home/privacy
It's east FICS has a noplay list and it's a totally free web site
Thank you for answering the question that people asked 5 years ago. It's not tiresome at all to see all these years-old threads getting bumped lately.
Of course it's not tiresome. Why would it be tiresome?
I think it would be interesting to see, on my profile, how many players have blocked me personally. Not that I care who, just the number. I could then compare my number to an opponent to see where exactly I stand. If I have one or two people blocking me, then I must be doing okay as compared to someone else who might have several dozen. If the block count gets really high, it's a safe bet that person is strongly disliked and should be avoided.
You would have to factor in total number of games played in your comparison. Out of a certain number is a near certainty someone will block you. Extrapolate that certain number by some factor and some sort of rule could be deduced: X games played will always equal Y people blocking you. If you beat an opponent W times and they only beat you Z then the chance of them blocking you aproaches !00%. 
Interesting idea but in that case you are somewhat mixing apples and oranges - people vs. games. A raw count would be sufficient - plus 1 for a block, minus 1 for an unblock. Not much over head to calculate something like that.
I do like your idea though. That would make an alternate measure of your performance.
The number could be manipulated. Someone could organize a boycott campaign to block so-and-so just to drive his number up. :-)
I'm assuming under normal circumstances, the number might still be interesting to know.
