Sort:
Come on people! The future of chess.com is in our hands! Let your voice be heard!
A Rickroll poll, lol.
It's like its 2008 all over.
I will be logging in for free in V3,
I cannot support its current rapport.
Yes I do. Does that mean I qualify for high speed Internet access?

I like version three. But it still needs an exterminator here and there. (ie Vote Chess)

I like it for live chess. I hate it for daily chess, even with allowance for time to learn the new. It's much slower than the old version. Game explorer with daily chess grinds to a halt as soon as you get to a single game. I get a few of my games listed, followed by an archive which I don't want, and can't see the rest of my games. The moves seem to go off as soon as I enter them, rather than allowing for confirmation, which destroys the whole point of correspondence chess in my opinion. I can't get emails that I am running out of time without accepting endless emails about tournaments which I don't want to know about at the moment. It was bad enough not to have internal control of unwanted tournament announcements and ideas for getting me to party with money. Maybe some of this could be fixed by more careful design, or better on-screen explanations? If forced into using the new system, I will leave Chess.com.

I want whoever decided this was change was okay to feel bad for what they've done.
*edit*
Yesterday I was not able to revert to the old version, so I believed the change was now permanent, and cancelled my subscription. It just now allowed me to revert...but I will maintain my cancellation to show my disatisfaction with V3. Voting with dollars.

I posted in the other topic too but the move confirmation still exists, it may just have been toggled to off. You can turn it back on.
You can also disable receiving tourney invites while still receiving move notifications.

doesn't chess.com make enough money to afford two servers ? one for v2 and one for v3 ?
You will have to read through erik's posts about the upgrade. He has posted a lot on it in the last and more recently.
Supporting two codebases isn't something that is sustainable long term, in my opinion.
This forum is a tiny sub-sample of opinion.
I officially joined almost six years ago but didn't get to know the site very well back then. Coming back, to the new version, has been great. I haven't had any navigating problems at all, everything seems to be laid out quite logically. I'm having fun exploring all the features open to a Platinum member. Going to upgrade to Diamond soon!
Yes.
And here's another vote for v3 the next time the topic is raised, as it surely will be.
It's a simple yes or no question. Please vote at the link below:
