Is this a site wide issue showing people offline or just me?

The issue today is that you can log out and even clear your cookies and the same people appear online when they logged out ages before etc

The 'stealth bug' is a feature that many people have been asking for!

Number of games in progress: what difference does it make if it's slightly out?

I think it's fair to say that chess.com has prioritized!

i've seen people who the lag says they are offline, and i'm playing them in chess.

I am on live chess and i sign off, it says i'm still on.

yes, i am having the same issue. especially on online chess. the player is online but the icon that determines that they are online is not displayed when i am making my move during the online chess.

are you going to report this?

They might be making the move from Mobile Phone or other interfaces.

I think somebody stole The Ring (of Tolkien fame) and is wearing it while playing.

 that could be it!

Donna, since you say you play chess on your phone a lot, challenge someone to an unrated game and the opposing player will say if the icon syas you are online or not. play from your phone though

just an idea...

proKnight98

oops! sorry Karl, now i feel so ashamed of myself :(

ok, problem solved.

proKnight98

well that's good! sorry if you like smoking but our school always has these assemblies about NO SMOKING and i've been "siding" with them and their awkward "chant" has been stuck in my head.

wow, off topic again.

Hey, Karl! You quit smoking today? Please feel free to be as crabby as you want. I'll even offer you my body to kick and punch and mutilate all you want if that will help. Please, please, please do not quit quitting!!!!!!! Check with Donna -- she did it!! It's tough, I know, but YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!

My husband is a heavy smoker and he's got health problems galore, but he just won't give up the love of his life: his nicotine.

Stick with it, Karl!!! After some time (how long would you say, Donna?) you'll be ever so glad you did.

blackfirestorm

proKnight98
