Can someone explain to me why there is an option to follow other players? When you friend someone, you automatically follow them. But for unfriended players (even ones who you block or who block you) you still have the option to follow them. I see nowhere on chess.com for you to see who you follow, only your friends list. So what's the point?

how come some variants get deleted? There are lots of people saying that a variant they liked has been removed, and I would like to clear things up for them. Fairyland, Rock Paper Scissors, and a few others have been removed. Please clear this up for them

In reality, just after the game started, I disconnect from the server and that is what actually happened to me. Especially since the variants server was disconnecting me lots of times yesterday :<

Colour blind people asked to adapt the game for their needs. I create this forum topic to discuss how exactly the game should be updated.
It is obvious that the colours should be replaced with some patterns. Like "Polka Dots" for Green or "Checkers" for Blue. The patterns should be crisp and well-defined. Diagonal lines? Some waves?
If anyone here have any ideas and can draw them, post the pictures please.
We can leave 2 contrast colours (like White instead of Red and Black Instead of Yellow), but there are 3 more colours that should be replaced with patterns: Blue, Green and Gray.

So, since I wrote it already somewhere in this forum, I'll post it here.
This is the list of my strategic ideas (by "strategy" I mean "thinking in long terms") in 4PC.
Add your own!

Going into my four player chess friends list, I see that it shows that all my friends are offline, but I see some of my friends on the server playing. How do you fix this bug? It happened to me before

Lately on 4PC Variant Teams, if you create/join a game with a specific rating range, it can occasionally put you in an alternate game.
This defeats the purpose of creating/joining a game with your preference setting.
Not sure why this is occurring, if it is new or a glitch. Has anyone else noticed this and how can this be fixed? I don't recall this happening in previous months

On May 16, all support for chess.com/variants will be ended. I have been notified of this by the admin team and they are working on making an official announcement.
After the server support is ended, all 40 million games will be deleted. Chess.con says that this will free up over 2 terabytes of data and help the site run faster… but I think it’s time to move to the “L” website…

i was happy when i heard they was bringing back the solo mode, as i thought FFA would get back to +3 +1 -1 -3 score, but i've seen solo mode is there, and FFA is still another solo mode where 2nd place worth nothing
please make FFA a real FFA mode again

I think it can be interesting to discuss typical openings in 4players chess. For example, I noticed that the following openings are the most frequent (at least for 2000-2400 players with who I usually play):
1) Making a queen with d2->d4+further propagation, or more rare variations with c or e pawns2) Teaming opening with e2-e3 to get the queen out (with similar defense with moving c2 pawn to attack c pawn of the player who moved her queen)3) Two knights opening, when one of the knights can be used to block pawn in the center4) Indian opening to harass the player who moves before you with knight+bishop check (or at least distract her)5) a2-a4 or h2-h4 openings
6) Some other ones that I forgot to mention?
For the last one, I do not understand the idea. Even though I saw it even done by 24xx+ rated players. I am curious to know what its intention is? Moving the rock out?

I've noticed 'block' does not seem to always work. Others have mentioned this as well.
If you create a game, someone you've blocked can still join. (sometimes)
I thought... perhaps the block feature is only for messaging... however, there have been a few times where the block feature does in fact work, for in game. (a message notification appears that a blocked user has prevented you from joining, or vice versa)
Any insights as to why this only occasionally works?

I'm spectating a game today and I realize the arrows look a little strange so I drag one myself and sure enough the arrows are messed up. Has anyone else got this issue too? Or is it just me?

it happend to one of my friends, who blocked a person after being a partner with them in a game. Then both of those guys were partners again, while the one was blocked. The reason could be the fact, that it was anonymus game, but why didn't it work? If I block somene, then that someone is blocked???
