If you never want to play with me or against me, then please just block me

I can't imagine why--I am a fantastic chess player, and just an awesome guy in general. But if you think I have bad breath or whatever, just click on my profile name, then the "More" box with three dots, and finally select "Block" on the pulldown. I will then be completely dead to you.

uh ok?? cool most people know how to block people but ok

With 1200 rating you probably overrate yourself a bit when saying you are "fantastic player". Also if someone blocks you, he cant get you as opponent as well, not only as partner. Which is sometimes undesirable.

Do you know how many people I want to block?

A_Tsehansky

But I can't because then I won't have anyone left to play...

A_Tsehansky

Because in 1700 to 2500 there are approximately I think 300 200 players even less

A_Tsehansky

And not everyone plays at the same hours

A_Tsehansky

At the same time no more than 15 players play and the majority are players who play a lot

A_Tsehansky

So tsarkov is absolutely right

Pretty sure I've heard of people getting blocked players as partners and opponents. It's another Cheez.com bug.
Of course, I could win lots of Swisses if I simply blocked all the strong players. 7-0, here we go!

I block people with reckless abandon. I bet you are a fantastic guy and this isn't personal but I will add you to my block list in accordance with your request.

My strategy: I block the people that are not on voice, the people that insult me, and the people that don't want to play with me and they just resign when games start (I wish they could block me instead, but well).

When seeking takes too long, or I find a partner I just unblock everyone, click click click.

I think this is a good method, better than not blocking, or blocking only a few, or not playing with a lot of people just because we blocked them once.

What was the point of this? For the heck of it? Whatever, we know how to block you, and your skill has nothing to do with it.

I agree with you very much

A_Tsehansky

What's really annoying is that half of the people in the world don't know about this type of chess

A_Tsehansky

If everyone knew about it a lot more people would play it

Note to self: next time I feel like making a joke make sure and include the laughing 😂 emoji. Yikes 😲

A_Tsarkov

Which part of your post was supposed to be a joke?
