Dear God, did you really post another topic on this? The forums are drowning in this.
WAY too many disconnections in live chess!

Let me guess, you're using internet explorer.....
Live chess is probably going to come out in 1-2 weeks. There are no disconnections!
I've played over 1500 long games on live chess and I've rarely ever been disconnected
We have started testing the new Live Chess. I can't/won't give you a better time frame other than to say there are several people testing it right now.

the games aren't rated, and there are still problems, but it's almost ready!

Nope, I use Firefox.
I noticed the ratings haven't been wiped yet... would this be Live Chess v1.9?

I played a few games and I was very pleased with it! Thanks for the link erik! Can't wait for the final version!

I've found that disconects have dramatically increased in the last week or two. And no I don't use Internet Explorer. I usually use firefox, sometimes Safari, and most recently Chrome. Same problem on all of the them.

thats too bad, maybe i'm just lucky although i'm using safari not firefox, which is a bit unstable after the last update.(rumours)
so maybe you have to wait for live chess 2.0

PLEASE READ! DO NOT USE LIVE CHESS unless you understand that it is still a work-in-progress. You MAY be disconnected randomly. You MAY experience lag. You WILL be disappointed if you expect anything else. For the BEST EXPERIENCE on Live Chess we recommend that you use Firefox 3, Safari 3, or Chrome. Internet Explorer browser does not perform well in Live Chess. Seriously, try 
!
We are working really hard on making Live Chess as fast, stable, and amazing as possible. In the mean time, please be patient - thanks!
I use firefox and have never had a disconnect or a popup.

Yes, I read this. However, it seems that I get disconnected a lot more than other people right now. I mean getting disconnected in just about every game can be a bit frustrating. I guess I just won't play live chess until live chess 2 comes out.
I think the vast majority of members will be pleased with live chess 2. The ones that wont be pleased, will be the chronic quitters. Please be patient, i think you will be happy with the changes.

Live Chess is awesome now!
It will be just about perfect once all the features return.
