FIDE rules on chess.com in blitz and rapid chess?

Hello everybody, I would like to ask, if you think it would be a good idea to implement more of the FIDE rules into Live chess on chess.com

I think an option to set up - FIDE rules or not FIDE rules would be great. The reason I am thinking about this is - illegal move in blitz and rapid chess. This rule had great influence on OTB blitz and rapid chess - one illegal move and you lose the game.

I imagine the application of the rule as follows:

 - the check would NOT be announced by sound and the player who is in check could play any move, even illegal. When he plays illegal move, the opponent who gave check would see additional button when he would have to claim the illegal move and so would win the game.

 - if the player clicks on one piece while it is his turn, he has to move the piece. If he moves other piece his opponent would gain two minutes on the clock.

What do you think? Is this idea even worth discussing? Do you think there is a possibility of chess.com implementing this?

stupid! I always do a mouseslip on a wrong square, and fix it afterwards..

          ...The sound that is made when you check is turned off on many other sites, but I have never heard of impossible moves losing in online chess.
It might not, however, be such a bad idea- only there is a problem what if you made the illegal move and opponent wouldnt notice. What would happen then?
Overall it does not sound that good to me, but that is just my opinion...

Slováci po slovensky neee? :)

If I make an illegal move and the opponent doesn't notice, everything would be the same as in OTB chess - nothing happens and the game continues.
