A long time ago (5 years or more) there ware a lot of players who would try to talk to you during a 3- or 5- minute blitz game. Now, I don't know about you but I simply cannot do that and play my best chess. No way. So i used to be a bit sad that I had to just go to Zen mode and block the little red icon in the upper right screen indicating conversation in order to shut out distractions. However, since the past 3 or 4 years this doesn't happen anymore, as virtually no-one talks at all. So its no longer a problem.

Lol one time I was trying to be nice in the chat and the guy thought it was a trap to lose more time. It was a 20 or 30 minute game.
