Farewell Chess.com

Nordvind
I don't want to play against the slow lane of Chess.com anymore. I have a fast internet line, but not on Chess.com. I struggled for a long time against the slow line of Chess.com, so much so that I lost the joy of playing chess. I play on other chess sites, and there I don't have that problem. I do not want to renew my diamond membership. Good bye.

Fun facts. After I wrote that post, I won 9 Blitz games in a row. 😀

So chess.com suddenly and inexplicably got waaaay faster and you’ve regained the joy of playing chess? 🤦‍♂️

Internet latency changes, depending on various factors, some controllable from the client side and some that can't be controlled between the client and the site.

I don’t know how you do it Martin. You continue to rise above the fray no matter what. You’re a rock star!

nobody really cares if you go or not i would go becouse this site is rigged i can get my rating to almost 1200 then all of a sudden i will lose all the way back down to 100 against smaller rated players and its not like a game or two it would be like 7 or 8 games in a row its rigged so you pay them money to gat better but you actually dont get better

I think you should quit chess, and maybe go to checkers

I wrote the post in anger, I regret it now. But having said that, I have problems with the Internet connection to Chess.no. I guess I'll just have to live with it, and play with that handicap.

I asked Magnus to challenge you to a game, and he said, "Nor way, han er for god for meg".

We’re all mad dude. That’s why Dr. Erik has the doors locked and windows barred. “There must be some kind of way outta here, said the beggar to the thief.”

Joker or beggar?

It was a long long time ago and we were all mad then too.

Everyone told me the wind cries Mary too, but I thought they called the wind Mariah.

There’s too much confusion, I can’t get no relief.

Prefer Cheech's purple Haze. He sang it like he meant it and his life depended on it
