? Feature Request: A REPORT OPTION for bad sports

How a report function option for Bad Sports & Pin Heads

This may serve as an early warning system for "problem children" -- the type of people that grow into trolls & cheaters....

The exchange is clearly mild. The context is that my opponent chose to 'play on' in a lost position then questions how I would close out the game & ? challenges me while timing out.... I have removed the person's name -- my point is not to beat up on a frustrated player but to show an approved method for feedback

Isaiah4031 excellent play ---- you had me early
xxxxxxx Are you for real
xxxxxxx Play again
Isaiah4031 ??????????????
Isaiah4031 not with someone that won't resign a fully lost position

Hmm.... looks like xxxxxx thought you were a cheater.

Did you actually look at the game??? He had me mated -- or totally beat down ?? @ move 13.... I was hoping for some deeper discussion --- We have a category for your types of comments

I did an analysis request for you: he had a dominant position even before my blunder @ move 16

Dude... some people prefer to play out games to the end no matter what. I do wish that time controls with a large increment (and low base time) were more popular...

Separately, I wish that somehow a player's time management skill (what % of their time they tend to use) were tracked and displayed on their profile.

playing out the game IS NOT an issue!! Petulant comments because he does not enjoy the way I close out the game is the issue!!

It's a shame there is not a time/ move tag to accompany the chat messages ---- that may help make analysis objective!! If you had seen when the message was sent in time/ move context you would easily see my point

There's a small box next to "Chat room" above the chat box that you can uncheck in order to hide the chat.

The GREAT majority of the people I play against are civil and I enjoy the chat! As you can see by the people I follow/ following me, chess is a tool for enoying people -- not lying to myself about my limited chess skills...

It doesn't disable chat permanently, you can always check it again. You don't have to disable chat all the time, just when your opponent says hurtful things such as in the original post.
