Most people don't have this link saved/memorized. This means I first need to do a Google search to find out where the feature is located. Then I need to find the user I want to block so I can copy/paste their name into a text field. This process is more complex than it needs to be.
I should be able to block a user just as easily as adding them as a friend.
I was just playing a game with someone on the andriod chess app. After I got into a winning position the opponent decided to wait out the 2 miniute clock.
When I meet these types of people I would like to block them so I can avoid playing them in the future. But currently the only way I can do that is to remember the user, wait until I get back to my computer then block them though the chess.com site. (which is also a convoluted process).
The app already has features to message, create new games, and friend users via the app. So adding a feature to block another user shouldn't be difficult. What do you have to gain from leaving the feature out of the app?
