Why are you guys even trying? Hasn't it already been made crystal clear that none of the community feedback was and will ever be listened to?

Because not everyone watching their stream knows this, they can nitpick 1 or 2 easy requests they were doing anyways and say "Look at us", and it's basically just a method of propaganda for Chess.Com to look better.

How come the legends club has about 400,000 more people in it than people in Legends League?

why am i getting muted for saying swear words in a private club where everyone including the owner and admins is fine with such behavior

The auto-mod code still filters club posts. I can't imagine that would get changed as there is no way to know if the club admins allow it or not.

Some people opt out of the leagues and as far as I know they don't get removed from the club in that case. Also, some members in the club may not be playing games so aren't in new divisions.

I could be wrong about the filtering in clubs.

What are your thoughts on the 1,500 BUA (Bullet Addicts Anonymous) members' statements concerning the potential filing of a class-action lawsuit seeking considerable monetary compensation for damages incurred as an indirect result of the use of your company's product?

Damages incurred include but are not limited to: fatal injuries to mouse, fatal injuries to keyboard, fatal injuries to monitor, fatal injuries to phone, fatal injuries to tablet, significant ripping and disfigurement of a shirt (This particular claim is being made by a former World Champion), fatal injuries to my wall after I kicked it subsequent to getting flagged, and sudden increases in heart rate.

I speak as a legal representative for over 1,500 potential claimants, including myself. We await your response and hope to resolve the matter quickly and peacefully.

Can you tell staff to revert to the old club UI with perhaps some small changes because the community (through proven polls, petitions, and feedback form the beta club) almost universally hates it?

Can I join the lawsuit? I am experiencing severe mental damage due to the 3 mouseslips I've made in my last 2 games, especially since the first game went from complete domination to a horrible loss when I misclicked.

I don't know. Sometimes they have question from Discord and Reddit too.

Why has chess.com not released any statements on the attack on Israel? Yall released this article supporting Ukraine on the onset of the war.

https://www.chess.com/article/view/on-the-invasion-of-ukraine

It's been nearly a month, and you all have still not released a statement, and continue to mute members who talk about it.

Seems like hypocrisy to me.

Definitely. I’ve asked this question too with no response.
