Maximum self imposed games flag
02 Dec '12 12:40Probably been mentioned before... But could there be some form of a flag that indicates a player is playing the max amount of games. At present it only tells you after you try (which takes a while on my Internet connection)!

03 Dec '12 00:301 edit 03 Dec '12 02:02Originally posted by FoolsM8I don't get why people even need to be able to challenge specific players without their permission. It seemed strange to me when I first got here that anyone could start a game with me under any time control without approval.

03 Dec '12 15:02Originally posted by FoolsM8Ah yes sorry.
Yes thank you, I mean self imposed maximum games. IE if I only allow 20 games & I have reached my limit. You won't know till you challenge me...
Can be a little annoying after initiating the 8th or 9th challenge in a row - only to have it say the player has reached their self imposed maximum games on each one...
05 Dec '12 00:201 editOriginally posted by SwissGambitif you really want to challenge someone, you should at least ask them if they're up for a game. That resolves the request in this thread. They can just tell you they don't have a slot available.[/b]
I don't think I've ever been asked. 😀
What's more if I had to wait for a reply that could mean days in some cases!!

I've been a member here for 8 years & in that time no one has ever asked me if I want to play chess! They just initiate a game... I'm here to play chess, asking seems redundant... 😀
Sometimes my Internet connection is a tad slow - depending on my location, so I'm merely throwing an idea in the pot so to speak. A flag that says "not looking for games" would be nice....
That's my tuppence.
