What do you think chess.com needs to improve in???

i've tried live chess and it fails too much for me...  why not add additional time per move constraints?  e.g.  1 move per hour??  if that is too rapid for a given player, that player is not obliged to accept that specific game or join that specific tournament.  MORE CHOICE PLEASE!

Chess.com needs to control lagging in live chess! Please, chess.com, work on it!

Well, for me I feel chess.com needs to improve somehow or a rather. what do you think and why???


 Losing the connection should not mean losing the game.  Yahoo chess lets you log back on and resume the game.

And fewer obnoxious commercials!

This is the best chess site by far!!

The only improvement I can come up with is:

3D boards.

That would be awesome!

Dragon27, I think the ratings of some of our players are grossly inflated. 

dragon27

pop-ups! its really annoying especially for the non-premnium members. 

dragon27

I don't mind pops

I think they need to really crack down on the abusive, racist, & obscene chat in the chat room in the live chess. Chess.com can become a real powerhouse of a website for chess, but they need to keep it a g rated site so kids can participate too. Even tho they do crack down on offensive people, they really need to warn everyone before they make remarks, to let people know they mean business. The real legacy of chess is to promote it to children, to get them interested in the game, but I would not reccomend it at this time due to the few idiots that talk garbage in the chat room. The chat room right now is the only negative aspect to this wonderful site.

 You are quite right about that Painterroy. Some people are just filling the placce up with useless talk and therefore, ruining chess.com's enviroment. If they are going to continue this, I think chess.com should take action by making a personal chat room only for those talk. not everyone wants to here  thier abusive, racist, & obscene chat!

Well I think chess.com should improve the Live chess because it says its only a Beta at the moment.

 You got lots of choice here, either shut up and put up with or upgrade your membership or leave the website and you won't get any better than this.

I would like to see my current votechess on my homepage so I can see how much time left and whose turn is it.

dragon27

Well, there has to be a STOP on rude language....

 I think that the pool of players talents actually dictate what peoples ratings are. I might be wrong on this one though.
