I consider it usable but not finished. I use it all the time but still need to return to v2 sometimes to take care of specific needs.
Yes.
No.
V3 is this way; because they had too many programers and no one that understands programing design as a manager from the beginning. DO NOT EXPECT it to change for where it is now. It will just grow and grow. What can they do ? Start V4, but with some thought first . What would I do to start: list the problems with both V2 and V3. Simple ones , like count the lines of programming. You would want at most one tenth that number in V4 so that the requirements to use it ARE THE SAME EVERYWHERE. And a good V4 would only require one tenth of that number. What is interesting is that as the number of lines of codeing drops tha number of options for us , the users increases, with less knowledge needed of the chess program. That's hard to believe , but true. Why is that; because one uses the same package of codeing for that option and not a new group for each new requirement. Hope some one reads this.

It's odd how many people don't like change. I have been a member of chess.com for a long time. At least 8 years I think. During that time I have seen many changes to the site. In each case, I think the site gets better. Chess.com don't make changes to purposefully annoy people you know. They make them because they believe people will like them. And they almost certainly will engage in various methodologies (such as focus groups or surveys) to understand what their users want so that they can make the right upgrades. I think they get it right.
It's just odd that there is always a small group of people who will be infuriated by change!
Sigh. No. Access denied. With extreme prejudice.

Lately in the world much change to the worse is happening. Haven't you noticed?
no...
Currently (as in now) - no, not really:
- Longer time with page loading
- Longer lags in Live
V3 seems put together from a financial view, not a user compatibility view.
