Can't move any of the pieces

Sort:
knight955

I'm playing a chess game right now, and I can't move any of the pieces. I tried logging out and logging in, and refreshing. But the pieces just don't move. I can grab the piece and move it around, but it won't stay in the place I want it to go.I'm with google chrome.

Any ideas?

Have you tried using a different browser?

There are known issues with Chrome extensions ... 

piece-dragging-bug ?

and toolbars ... (see technical-difficulties,    sticky-cursor)

 

Also, have you tried clearing the browser cache …

I just happened the same to me!!, but i have Safari!, i was in the middle of a game against another guy, and I couldn't move the piece that i wanted in the place where i wanted!!!!, all my strategy was desinged by that move!, was that possible to be hacking??  I offered him a draw!, but he declined :( what happened?

No.

 I offered him a draw!, but he declined :( what happened?

 Was this turn-based or Live? Did you try using another browser?

tnx

Loool nope!, Live (Chess)! :)

I was not in Check, i just wanted to move a tower, but that special move couldnt make, that's why i thought it could be hacked :S

Could not move a pawn which was was right move. Was ahead in game. Tried others, same thing. They moved but would not stay where I put them. Very frusterating when you are winning a game especially. This has happened before & only when I'm winning. What gives? I resigned after trying to explain this issue to other player. Very frusterating!

Safari: Disable Develop menu.

Using Safari, I was unable to move my pieces in Live Chess unless I disabled Develop menu.

Safari > Preferences > Advanced > Show Develop menu in menu bar

Had this happen, disabled my extensions and refreshed the page

I realised when playing, my opponent plays and the game automatically reverse their move and passes turn to me. I wouldn't be able to move until time out or auto-resign. First, is it just me? Secondly, what can I do about it?

same happened to me just now. Im using Chrome. This is the first time happening. I dont have any extensions. I refresh the browser and nothing happened.

Just refresh and that works for me.
