Apparently you need to match a code in order to send a message, which is actually annoying.

chess.com tryna take away my freedom of speech or smth now smh

Idk if I'm just dumb but I legit have no clue what half the letters are

<-- wht is this supposed to be??

 

Maybe this is related to the server errors earlier when chess.com was down but hopefully it'll be  removed soon...

My understanding is that happens when the site is experiencing a spam related attack and should only be in place while that is still happening. I think it can also happen if a member triggers it by sending a lot of messages quickly or might contain spam like content.

No, I don't believe one person can do it but it is from a more sustained and widespread attack.
