Welcome, knorq.

to play a live chess game with a friend, first, add your friend to your friend list. go to their chess.com user page. For example, your user page is this:

http://www.chess.com/members/view/knorq

your friend's user page should be this:

http://www.chess.com/members/view/yourfriendsusername

at the right, you'll see a box titled "actions." Click on "Add to my friend list" to send a request.

after they accept your request, both of you log into live chess:

see the green menu bar above? Play/Live Chess

In there, on the right bottom window, you'll see a "friends" tab. Your friends who are online and logged into live chess are visible there. You can send them a challenge.


To challenge a friend to online chess, simply go to their chess.com user page and click on "challenge to play" in the actions box on the right.
