Suggestive Remarks

Go to Account > Privacy Settings > Block User

Then enter the name of the user that's cyberstalking you.

Give up the game if you have to. It's just not worth it. You can also report him to the chess.com staff.

I hope that solves your problem.

Turn off chat and if he is bothering you outside of that, block him. That would probably be easiest.

Tell him to shut up and that he's being a creep. That's the best way to solve an issue. A negative behavior can be eliminated with a negative response, according to the psychology textbooks.

Or you can click the disable chat button in the game chat window.

Also if you want to avoid problems like this in the future, make the cartoon girl in your pic less attractive.

Chess players are creeps by nature. You're just going to have to deal with it.

Sukey, I'm sorry for some of the comments here, please don't judge the entire chess.com community on a few out of character comments. There are a few things you can do on the site. You can read about/see screenshots of them here: http://support.chess.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=709 .

What does age have to do with this?  Someone stalking you is still stalking.

Youd feel like an idiot saying cyberstalking, but you have no problem calling someone a baby?

Someone hitting on you during an online chess game is not stalking....this is a nobrainer issue which leads me to view this as an attention getting ploy.  OMG...somebody made a suggestive remark! Who cares.  Ignore them.  Quit the game.  Report them.  Don't start a forum thread about them.  Thank You

I remember when stalking use to be considered a compliment.  OK not funny.  Hit the ignore button.  Regarding responding with a negative comment in the hopes that it will shut this guy up????  Where the heck did you go to school?  Ignore Ignore Ignore, thats what the girls always did to me and it worked.

In response to dave kidder: I just want to play a couple of games of chess I did ignore the little weirdo and did not respond with a harsh remark.  I just suggested he needed to get out more often. I thought that was an excellent analaysis

I gave the same advice, mixed with a little color, and I get deleted.  Sensitive little people here!  Good grief. 

Also I didn't call her a baby.  I refered to her as "baby" in the Telly Savalis kind of way.  As in make some adult decisions like a grown up woman, like she presumable has before.  So yeah, age has a lot to do with it.  If she's 14 years old, I can see how the big bad man hitting on her might be a more of a problem.  I have the impression that grown up women know how to brush a guy off, and not have to play the victim card.

Also like King Wrath said, it's not stalking.  In fact I probably said that too, before some wiener deleated my comments.  Also right, a no-brainer.

P.S.  The whole stalking thing is overblown muck, by the way.  The guy probably just showed some interest and all of a sudden he's a stalker or a rapist.  Then you start making up cute little computer oriented words like "cyberstalking" to make it more menacing.  Get real.

"Showing interest" in some random person you happen to be playing online chess with? Yeah, that's not creepy at all.

In response to D jolly Your making a bigger fuss than i did .you think im the only one he was bugging? It was just distracting while I was playing chess.Its not like the fruitcake even knows my last name or where i live what i looklike Im not frightened I live in the real world. Do you???

Sukey:  Sure I do.  I think I was indicating that.  So, good for you then.  Getting comments cut out tends to make me fuss over things more so I guess.  I like to have the point made and understood.  Having it cut out(wrongfully) makes it harder to be so.  --Derek

For someone that's so sensitive about "cute little computer oriented words", you so easily discount someone else's concern about getting continued unwanted comments. You aren't being consistent with your commentary.
