losing because of lag/disconnect

Sort:

I must say, i love chess.com and the app. But lately i keep losing games and points just because of LONG lags and even because of disconnections. it can't be, that a move, that i take immediately takes 30~60 seconds away from my clock. I have a perfect connection and can stream youtube-videos, much more bytes as to communicate that i move a piece. This is very frustrating. And today (10 minutes ago) the game did'nt even started, but it drained 10 points away from me, AND i got a message, that if i don't respect the fair play rules my account can be blocked. Anyone else suffers the same problem? Is there ANY remedy? This issue ruins the game =( Thank you Armin

Try reinstalling the app.

Dear machinehater, I have same problem. This is Chess.com server problem especially in peak time. Reinstalling or something else don't work!

1. clear your borswer's and system cache, cookie, prefetch and temp files.

2. if you are usign v2 then try chrome ad-block plugin,

3. apply step 1 and 2, nothing else.

Try no script, and when you are booting your dumb linux system and he is arguing some system files have been changed, you can do two things, one is throwing your computer out of the window, two is correcting the problem manually.

Dear SHWETA_BENIWAL, I'm trying chrome ad-block plugin, until now it is so helpful. Thanks. Hope to work for ever!

In blitz as well as live std..ie.15/10 and 30mnts games I lost about a dozen

and more than 100 games respectively due to this problem..but donot worry

about such things now a days..just play for play's sake and not bothered

about rating or losses..

1. NO ONE has a perfect connection. 

2. Dont stream videos while youre playing.

3. You will get the precious 10 points back.

There are number of players using this app. App needs maintenance and required to be updated.

I have the same problem. A large number of games don't even start because the lag is so bad that the game times out before the first move. I often lose on time while waiting for my opponent to make a move. Is it my ISP or is it chess.com?

 chess.com just want you to spend some  Money Mouth and upgrade you cheap so and so! LOL
