Is it possible to filter out people who block chat in live chess?  I feel very uncomfortable when I cannot type "gg" and other bits of chit chat.

Is there a setting where people can auto-block chat? I thought it was a runtime choice.

You might want to brace yourself for an onslaught of abuse, given all the abuse I took when I said essentially the same thing:

I find it annoying.. Yes but I still play people even if they disable chat.. I see where they come from and maybe are just tired of abuse

ABUSE ABUSE ABUSE! really, we all have gotten bored over the resignation, disable chat, etc. Give us something really good!

Some people might have difficulties with foreign languages,so disabling the chat might be an easy way to solve that issue

If you disable chat it's because you're getting ready to do something cowardly like running after the first match and you don't want to hear the truth--you're a coward!

Perfect example of why chat gets disabled ! Smile
