So I hovered my mouse over the Learn area, and one of the things was called "First Steps" It had a diamond on it. Is this a new beta thing or a bug? It would be nice to know.

Overview: Engine analysis is only available on the first visit on the Engine Analysis tab. After switching tabs is gets reset. Environment: MacOS X/Safari Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open one of your game. 2. Switch on the Engine Analysis tab and run the analysis. 3. When it's done switch to Manual analysis tab and back. Result: The analysis results are reset. Expected Result: The analysis results should be persistent. At least during one session (can by implemented by using the browser local storage).

In vote chess and analysis, I see the following: 38...Accept Draw (74%, 391 Votes) 38...move_list.algebraic.Nb4 (64%, 114 Votes) 38...move_list.algebraic.Reject Draw(15%, 80 Votes) 38...move_list.algebraic.Nb6 (22%, 39 Votes) /starts senior DBA mode I think the programmer needs to step up their alpha testing game for these changes.

I saved an analysis and then it gave me 5 alerts, not 1 single. Please check this.

So I had this alert form the Crazyhouse club and when I deleted it, it got deleted. But then I went onto a different page on chess.com and that alert reappeared on my alerts! Please fix this otherwise I think my alert tab will be overrun by alerts.

It is rude to abort and decline early. Would it be possible to do when a player aborted or declined early(had not been checked or less than 1 min into a game) multiple times, the penalties will increase? e.g. 1 early decline -10 2 early declines -20 3 early declines -30 etc.

Here's a pic:

As many of you know, a player who aborts too many games can be punished for hitting the "abort" button too many times in live chess. An auto-abort occurs when a player does not make a move within the first 15 seconds. I like the feature, considering that it saves some grace for people who occasionally have bs internet and cannot start a game. I do not favor those however, who refuse to play just because the player is lower-rated. I was matched twice with a person (unnamed) who had 4 bars (so perfect internet) and did not make a move. It's obvious both our internets were working (I premove, so it detects when he is on the same page and his clock starts). Now he was only 20 points higher-rated. Now sometimes match-making gives really bad match-ups (sometimes I play people rated 1950 and I'm happy with that but I understand a 150 point difference is not ideal for some people). anything between 50 points and less is NOT though. They even have settings which allow you to choose who is in the same pool as you (adding pictures later). I think that people are sometimes abusing this option for an auto-abort and there needs to be a system in place that will help people who just want to be here to play chess, to save extra time from waiting. I'm not entirely sure about what's capable and reasonable within the company, but I would suggest making the auto-abort similar to the abort option (in which players are warned) but allow lee-way for players who aren't abusing the system (by giving proof) or something.

I’m gonna explain this the best I can, so here goes! Problem: Sometimes when receiving a trophy from someone, it vanishes. Like the notification pops up, but then the trophy is nowhere to be found... Not knowing if this happens on other devices, or is just a personal account problem (I checked all setting to see if I was missing something) but yeah, please give feedback if this happens to you. Step 1. Issue someone a trophy (it seems to be the ones after a Daily game more frequently) Step 2. Send some sort of note asking if they received it. Step 3. If so, hopefully problem solved, if not, then I don’t know, do admin stuff or panic

Maybe I'm overly sensitive, but I find it rude to decline a challenge (either for an individual game or, as a team admin, for a team match) without further comment. So normally, when I decline one, I send a PM to the challenger giving my reasons for declining. It would be nice to have the option of attaching a comment of this sort directly to the decline action.

Has chess.com introduced some match result correction for closed accounts recently? E.g., my loss against @chipman1212 (whose account has been closed due to a fair play issue) on board #5 of this match: https://www.chess.com/club/matches/chess-team-holland/795762 now is listed as "0-0": Or is this an ordinary bug? After all, my win on time against @chipman1212 (in the second game, after his account had been closed) is also listed as a "0".

When the member goes offline from chat the chat tab still shows that member in room with the username displayed, which should have showed that member left or not online.

Hi all. Not sure if this already exists. I'm loving the new variants on chess.com. One new addition could be blind chess. It helps to improve memory. Visions is very similar to it except in blind chess, you play without seeing the pieces. Maybe we can have blind chess matches with a computer. I hope you take this into consideration Thanks

After going through some admin discussions in clubs, I think it wold be really useful to know a player's "saturation" level. How many daily games would they be willing to manage playing. Possibly per club. For some clubs, I will play more. Maybe both total game saturation and club game saturation?

@Markof in the notes of Chess.com Beta, 2018-01-19: I have club request from player nivckovbrat to club Slovenska liga in allerts. I agreed this but one apears again and again.

Overview: 100 tactics in a day achievement not received as it should have been. Environment: Combination of Android app and Chrome/PC. My user. Steps to Reproduce: Do over 100 tactics in a day. Verify via the general "Tactics" page on the website (not visible on the Android app) that it shows more than 100 tactics completed "today". Go to Profile->Achievements, and scroll down to "Tactics Machine" achievement. Notice it's gray and has not been given. Wait until the following day to ensure enough time has elapsed. Result: The "Tactics Machine" achievement is still gray / not awarded. Expected Result: The "Tactics Machine" achievement should show the graphic to indicate it's been awarded.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to implement some kind of automated service management system on chess.com that enforces users to submit there reports in some standardized form: https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/how-to-format-a-proper-bug-report and reward them with a guaranteed response? (Which might be: "Nice, but unfortunately we don't have resources for that.") I'm still waiting for a (final) response to the following threads: Display of forum posts in Firefox: under investigationhttps://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/irritating-display-of-forum-posts-in-firefox Scope of editor: under investigationhttps://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/scope-of-editor-for-posting-contributions Strange redirect after PM failure: not ticketed (why not?)https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/strange-redirect-after-failure-with-sending-pm Number of registered players: not ticketed (why not?)https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/number-of-registered-players-in-open-team-matches and am left guessing whether the explanation is either of "just forgotten", "no time to check", "undesired, but too expensive to change" or "feature rather than bug".

Sometimes when I click on a square in visions, it just turns blue but doesn't show that I clicked on the right square. Also, is it possible to have a focus mode sort of thing for visions so that when I click on squares like b8, my learn and other columns don't open up?

Overview: When playing 'vision' in Learn the first time I play the game is perfect, But the rematch won't let me select anything. The timer just runs out. Environment: Windows 10, PC, Google Chrome. All up to date Steps to Reproduce: Play a game of Vision. Learn>Vision. Click start. Play a game of grid coordinates.... (standard game) once completed click start again and the game starts again. Result: The Clock ticks down... the mouse is like a hand and finger pointing BUT cannot select anything. to resolve I have had to refresh the page. Expected Result: The start game button should have restarted the game in exactly the same manner as the first game.
