How to keep yourself from getting kicked off of live chess

Sort:

To keep yourself from getting kicked off live chess, just don't use profanity, don't have religious or political debates, and definitely refrain from using innapropriate language (nudity, sex, etc.) 

Don't do this and you'll have a successful and fun time on live chess. Good Luck!

The purpose of this was to warn new-comers, FYI. And if you haven't gotten caught yet using that kind of language, then you will very soon. Trust me, I've seen it happen plenty of times. If a staff member doesn't catch you, someone that's chatting will report you.

Rules of Behavior

Chess.com is a friendly community. The following behavior is prohibited and can result in your being kicked or banned:

  • cheating
  • offensive/vulgar language
  • personal attacks
  • spamming or advertising other websites
  • religious or political debate
  • pointless/distracting posts
  • discussion of illegal activities (drugs, etc)

Simply put: be nice and have fun!

 

p.s. I am a moderator on Live chess, and it is obvious to me that some of the users have no idea how to behave, and have never read the rules.

That is exactly right. If you can't behave while online, then don't get on at all. That goes for new members and members that have had an account for a

while.

I came here for some tips about how to avoid the spurious disconnections, and left disappointed.

i was going to enter the chatroom and use inappropriate language, not to mention be really really rude, but then i came across this post. At first i was like, "ah who cares, im gonna do it anyway." So i went to chatrooom and i was ready to unleash some real nasty stuff and just be rude, but then this post came back to me. i thought, "remember what the post said. don't misbehave."  i thought, "it's probably not good to use inappropriate language on this site because i could get kicked off."  thanks for the help! this post will certainly make a difference!

oh, and by the way-- you sound like a third grade hall monitor. you should change your devil avatar to a My Little Pony.

Sorry ozzie, but there's no way to avoid getting dc/ed so you'll just have to update your server, or deal with it.

haha.  same here!  I feel duped.

Well, I'm sorry, but the title clearly indicates on how to keep from getting kicked off, not how not to get disconnected. There is no way to avoid getting disconnected unless you update your server to firefox or safari 3, and even then you still might disconnect a couple of times. This is one of the problems that chess.com is trying to correct.

Provide me with a few pounds of Toblerone bars (with toffee!) and I'll see what I can do for you.

I don't do any of those things but I still get disconnected/kicked.

Abstaining from live chess works for me.

So simple...so obvious...but to so many its a difficult it not impossible concept top grasp.  Kind of like thet guy that signs his rental/lease agreement and the fist thing he does is turn the stereo up full blast and then blames the neighbors when they ask him to turn it down. 

Also what you posted is in the Terms people agreed to when they signed up here.  I guess some didnt read them or think they dont apply to them.

"Well, I'm sorry, but the title clearly indicates on how to keep from getting kicked off, not how not to get disconnected."

 

Wait, don't you get kicked off when you get disconnected?  Perhaps your semantic differentiation is not so thorough as you yourself believe...
