If you're not chess.com member your language changing is really easy. Just click on an icon in lower left corner. But if you're join in you have to go to the settings and change it. Can we add change language icon to the normal chess.com.

@2000Knights Fun fact: there are people who don’t speak English.

Chess is an international game.

Chess.com is open to an international community.

I think it's great that Chess.com is taking steps to be assist players who do not speak or understand English as well as others.

I understand sarcasm just fine, but it appears that you were taking a shot at the original poster who shared a concern, and that is unnecessary. The Beta forum is a place where people are trying to help Chess.com identify and fix bugs. Making the statement "everybody should just speak english yfm" does not contribute to a positive discussion, nor does it welcome anyone who does not read English very well to participate in solving technical issues associated the Beta code.

Your comment of "Do you not understand sarcasm" only serves to pull me onto the carpet in a defensive effort to justify you earlier post. If I wanted to read sarcasm, I would be subscribed to another forum on another platform, and not on Chess.com.

Please take your sarcasm somewhere else and contribute something positive to the Beta Forum.

this is what he said not two seconds later (at least a day before you said anything). It couldn't have been more clear that he was joking. I think you guys need to relax a bit. Consider the full context, and remember that just as you didn't come here to read sarcasm, he has no obligation to shape his cc interaction according to your expectations.

My expectations come from the guidelines posted by Chess.com, and those guidelines should be followed and/or enforced by everyone participating in the Beta Forum. The guidelines may be found here:

Guidelines to avoid Excessive & off topic posting to Beta Forum

#4, #5 and #6 of these guidelines state:

  • Don't hijack the topic with off topic comments or snarky/half-witty comments.
  • Be considerate, There are young members and members where English is not their first language. Criticizing their grammar or spelling is not adding any value to the discussion.
  • Help the Chess.com staff by reducing the posting traffic by asking yourself "Do I have a comment that adds value to the discussion?" If no then don't post.

Feel free to have the last word.

This added to the topic, and the post wasn't hijacked until you guys came to criticise him for making a joke. According to your logic everything you said should have pushed the actual topic forum's conversation but it instead chose to hyper focus on a non-issue. Did your posts add anything to the conversation so far? It doesn't seem like it. So you're actually 0/3 while he is 1/3. And I myself am 0/2 which is also above you despite having no intention to address the true topic.

Once again you're looking into something that realistically should have been chuckled at and ignored.

And thank you, I'd love to have the last word.
