Reconnecting

Avatar of Frithstar

Hi… has anyone experienced the sever disconnecting during a match? I’ve lost 8 games due to the serve trying to reconnect but unable to.

My internet is fine, my Wi-Fi and 4G always have full signal.

It’s rather annoying especially when you are about to checkmate your opponent on the next move!! 😭😭

Ugh I hate when that happens, I’ve lost a couple games on time because I wasted time trying to reconnect

It used to make me angry. It’s happened twice more since I posted this. It just madkes me lose interest in chess.com now if I’m honest! There’s obviously an issue with chess.com’s server. Shame.

It’s happened a few times to me as well, highly frustrating when it happens.

Yes, I have had this happen much more recently. It is frustrating because many times you may not notice it. I think chess.com should give you more time to reconnect. I believe it is set at a minute, which if you are concentrating on your next move and then notice it, may leave you with seconds and costs you the game.
