@llama51 this is something we will be addressing soon in relation to Off-Topic. We certainly do not want a dumping ground. This is something currently being discussed and hopefully you will see an improvement to things in the coming weeks.

Ok, good to hear.

I agree mods are acting like KGB
Mods are sometimes dorks, or a bit dumb, but most of them are not like this, and if anything I'd say moderation is too lax with the rules. Chess.com is consistently friendly and gives its users a lot of leeway. And for as large as their team is, it's impressive how consistently rules are applied. I've never thought to myself "oh, I bet it was ____ mod that did this" because they all seem to be on the same page.
I'd say the moderation is very good. The mods boss(es) though... I wish they had a different vision for the forms... but it seems like this will be changing a little bit soon (less spam), so that's good to hear
Anyway, not KGB-like at all.


Nah. Chess.com is a relatively small group of people. There's no inertia lol.
As for lichess, this was around the time chess.com was nearly overwhelmed by traffic from dual chess booms. I'm sure everyone involved would have welcomed the relief of sending 5 figures worth of people towards lichess... so... not sure it has anything to do with becoming less insecure, and they might reinstate it (it makes sufficient sense from a business standpoint).

A minha última partida não aparece no histórico e eu gostaria muito de poder analisa-la, será que é possível corrigir este erro?
It can take a little while for a game to write to the archive. It should probably be there by now

It wasn't a compliment.

I know, but it wasn't a bad thing tho
It's not bad for kids to have fun, I don't blame you.
It is bad for adults to behave in unreasonable ways, and IMO there has been some nonsense, although apparently they're thinking about the situation now.

Yeah

little advertising bruh
As for staff re-opening the ridiculous spam topic, your vision for the forums (I suppose I should say non-vision) is disgraceful.
