Can there be a way to put an image in a post the same way you make your avatar? I can't put mine on a url :(

Avatar of redlite462

i think you have to click the insert image icon which takes you to 'insert/edit image' page. From there click 'browse' which takes you to an 'image manager' page (I had to allow popups first). There you can upload images, then insert them back into your post.

I have a crazy idea! Everytime you lose or win a game an auto trophy will be gave to you like: good game etc.

Avatar of chessfanforlife

For the icon picture that you have, why dont you create a list of pictures or something just like the theme page!.... I am sick of my Linkin Park one.

-option to make you self appear offline even when you are online

(when you are hiding from assasins or just want to be unavailable)

-Second is considering my ego:when you (or him, or even "they") win a game it triggers a simple animatio of marching band (or elefants, or . . . .) that is playing funny musin and cheering you, or carrying flag on wich is written: YOU WON or YOU ARE THE GREATEST PLAYER THAT EVERR LIVED. also if you loose a game somtheng to cheer u up or bring you down even more(like: even my 2 year brother could winn that one)

group matches would be a very good idea.

I was wandering if could be possible add the choice to earn or not the points when your opponent loses on time.

I would like to archive any forum post that I am tracking or in any of the forum categories that are  60 days or more as the list keeps growing up and I am at a loss to track the recent postings. It would free up the live or active components to display on the site, I call it maintenance.

What purpose does it serve to keeps active records so long? In a manufacturing environment a 90 days was max, what ever you prefer?


i don't understand. explain?

Actually, if this isn't radically difficult to implement, I would really like to see this too.  There are many times when I am on Chess.com and looking all around, but not at any of my games.  In the past, I have gotten flack for that from opponents (e.g. "you are on but not moving, what is up?").  Perhaps you could set that as a setting in our profile?

yes yes but the assasins to right?

we already built that - it's called "logging off" :)

How about a swiss system tournament option?

Also Team vs Team tourneys would be cool.

Avatar of Defacto

No you didnt understand. We want it like is in msn live messenger you are on line but you appear to be offline(or busy, on lunch, be right back etc.) So you can be "inkognito" "steathy" . . .srill online and logged in but appear as not . . .get it?

And do i need to mention assasins again?

Avatar of erik

swiss tournaments are AWESOME when there are fixed amounts of time for games. but when you have everyone waiting on a few people's games... it can take WAY longer than our current system. we get enough complaints about the current tournaments, i think adding in a slower system would not be helpful. plus then we have to educate people on how they work (which many people don't understand).

building a fake "offline" doesn't make any sense to me. i mean, all that work so that OCCASSIONALLY somebody impatient doesn't bug you? :)

Avatar of Defacto

Not just bugging . . . sometimes we dont want to be avaliable for anyone bugs, frienda, family, strangers, bosses from work,assasins . . .if it is soo much work not right now but in near future i would like to see this feature very much.

-maybe there could be vote do we want this feature or some other . . .

Avatar of Masterful_Forfeit

I think 'Some other' would be the landslide in that case...

Avatar of Spiffe

I've just started playing around with Vote Chess, and it would be handy if the team comments displayed the players' ratings.  Rollover stats would address this somewhat, but however it's implemented, I think it would be very handy to be easily able to see a player's ethos at a glance.  If the 2700 player on the team is giving some advice, people should probably give him/her a bit more attention than the 1100.

Avatar of donngerard

its all there :)

Avatar of sss3006

 How about not actually losing immediately if u get disconnected from server? Happened to me twice today in a row. On attempting reconnect, we should be back in same game right? Of course if reconnect is not attempted - probably fellow ran away and it was not really a disconnect / his sytem packed up Frown.

Anyway, best chess site. Fantastic work team and head of team. Keep it up.
