SAY IT ISN'T SO....

i have to back to V2 to get my dog and family pics

I bounce back and forth. Now im on V3. It just depends on the day and where my browser takes me. but yes, making some of it similar to V2 definitely has helped.

v3 is so patronising, especially with all these childish gimmicks (really? An electric buzzer when I accidentally make an illegal move?) 

The use of Explorer on V2 has stopped, another brick in the wall.

I wouldn't be surprised if they end up pushing it back again for whatever reason.

Oh well Ill be dragged kicking and screaming into V3!😭

So true.😭

It's not so bad. Just a matter of getting used to.  They have adjusted certain things to make it feel more like V2.

😧     

You will get through it petit. ;-) Your a die hard chessie

Thanks sb.   What time is it there? You must be up pretty early?

I have been staying up very late( early in the am) to get work done petit. How have your been? Hi Bishop. Yes everyone is now stuck with V3. I haven't bothered to go back to v2.  I have been in v3 for a while. 

I definitely prefer V2. I actually prefer V1 when they had Meebo.

Lol, I forgot all about meebo. That weird messaging thing that triggered virus / malware protection

Meebo was an app in here which allowed people to speak with each other in real time. It was nice because people could be online and catch up without having to wait for a message to be returned. via the messaging system. Unfortunately trolling was at an all time high back then and they could do it directly. LMAO. So it had its flaws for sure.

Ive only 2 more days on V2!

😩

You will be fine petit. it takes a little getting used to.

My attitude is this, chess is a fun hobby. If it begins to become hard work its no longer fun.

I play on another site where I know what Im doing (!) so may spend more time there.

Ill try V3 of course , hope Ill be proved wrong!

I agree completely. In the end chess is a game. We have always enjoyed the social aspect of this site. It has been part of the fun.

Im used to V3 now.  What has helped me is my ignorance , Ive not explored the other games available, ( Except 3 check!)   and just concentrate on vote games as Ive always done.
