Why am I being auto-entered by chess.com into this league? I never gave consent to join it.

If you don't like leagues you can click Leave Leagues on the league page. The feature has been available for trays now and when a new feature is enabled it's usually going to default to on.

That said, it looks like you have already left leagues.

I have left the leagues, but I want to know how not to get wrangled back into them when I'm not the one joining them in the first place. It's frustrating to have to leave a league I never joined. I was playing today and knew I wouldn't be playing a Legend League game. How did I know that? Because I wasn't in the league. Yet somehow, I was playing a Legend League game and was in the league that I had left weeks ago anyway. Chess.com needs to stop recruiting me forcibly back into a league I've left. Once I've left, I shouldn't have to keep leaving. That's all I'm saying. I should have full confidence that won't happen again.

There is no such thing as a Legend league game. You're either in leagues or you're not. It's possible your league level still shows in live but it has no impact on anything

Leagues have no impact on pairings, if that's what you mean.

Now you don't get access to the club I think because it shut down because I don't see myself in the club but I am already in the legend

I have no idea what happened, but it made me play unrated when I logged in and the game showed I was in "Legend League" which I did not join and then I had to leave it. I don't want to leave the league. I just want to not be in it. I hate that it auto-places me in the league against my will. That's what I'm saying. How do I prevent chess.com from auto-placing me in the league so it doesn't happen again?

I don't think you are being placed in the league. I haven't seen any other reports of any members that have left leagues getting placed in them again without clicking the Join option on the leagues page. There simply isn't any code or mechanism that does that

The game you posted above was rated.

Can you screenshot and post what makes you think you're getting added to leagues?

If it happens again, I'll send you a PM with the appropriate screenshots. Thus far, there haven't been any further issues so hopefully it doesn't happen again.

Wait a few hours.

RE3_14

So it is really just about getting an achievement...

mercatorproject

Sorry, but I am in a perpetual timewarp.

mercatorproject

But i do notice you finished 3rd.

Never trust any sort of net, or you will get caught in it,

RE3_14

And can you leave a league?

Or decide not to go to the next one even if you "earned" it?

You're not in leagues at all so you can't promote

Yes, you can leave leagues but if you're in them and are in the promotion zone when they reset on Sunday then you'll automatically promote.
