I downloaded some games the other day and didn't really pay attention if it included the timestamps or not. Ultimately it would be nice to toggle that off for people that don't want it.
That said, the DB program I use has a quick way to remove all comments and I want to say it can strip comments on import. Might be something to look into, until an option is available here to turn it off.
Hi chess.com friends
I'm loving the new v3 site, and one feature that I think is particularly good are the "timestamps" in live chess. Really excellent!
My problem is that when I download the PGN of my games, the timestamps for each move come along too, embedded in the file text after each move, eg. "1.e4 {[%clk 0:04:59]} c5 {[%clk 0:05:03]}" and so on.
Please: can anyone tell me a way that I can download PGN files from my archive without all this timestamp info? I've tried turning off the "show timestamps" option during play but even then new games keep the timestamp info in the PGN. For better or worse, I download ALL of my chess.com games in order to store them in a separate database, so this is really important to me!
I hope someone can help.
Cheers
DM
