Hi
I'd really appreciate if the site owners/programmers could consider a new feature. I play chess to keep in contact with friends and socialise, but one feature that is missing (which you can find on other chess sites) is a type of "shoutbox" chat interface inside each chess game.
Clicking on a user's profile and clicking "send message" feels so formal. Can't we for example have a "send text" input box directly under "submit move"? When you open the game you can see what your opponent had to say. That way you can have a more "social" experience while playing chess - all online games have a chat-type interface, everything from FPS's to WOW - why not something quick and simple for chess?
If you are a member of this site and you like this idea, please add your support by letting the site owners know in this thread
Thank you

When it's your move you should see a link that says "Message your Opponent" in the list of options on the right.
Now exactly how in the hell did I miss that?!?
You know I always freak out on users who don't read what is on-screen. Today I can take my own advice (and maybe go easy on everyone I shout at for the next month or so)
Thank you - that was exactly what I was looking for.
