member is already blocked

"Member is already blocked" . How can this be ? Because if it were already blocked how then is it possible I just played a "blocked" member ?

There's a known bug with that. Staff are looking into the issue.

This should be fixed now

Thank you. It has not occurred anymore so far.

It was sure an annoying bug.

Is it also a bug, that one can't message someone who's sent a friends request?

Well, apparently this is not fixed yet as it occurred again. Some player stopped moving in a completely lost position with still 2+ minutes on the clock. Extremely annoying behaviour. So I had to wait for more than 2 minutes to get the win . Luckily it was a blitz game. Then I immediately tried to block this 12 year old incapable of accepting obvious defeat. But again I got the message this person was already blocked . But I just played him.

Happened again. Same reason. Mentally not capable of resigning a completely lost position. So they let the clock run out . Had to wait 2 minutes again in a bliz game to get the win. I even fear to play 10 minutes . If you run into this people playing rapid you might be waiting for 9 minutes or more. Apparently I had blocked this guy before as it said "member is already blocked", but because the bug is still alive I keep running into these people.

An Indian participant named [public accusations not allowed -- MS] is using bots to win, please report to whom it may concern, they tarnish an ancient game by cheating.

Thankfully there's a timer for inactivity so rapid players don't have to wait 9 minutes to get the win, but it still sucks. Free win though, so I guess that's nice.
