So I have been on chess.com for a while, even tho my account is pretty green. 

Few things I noticed that i would like to bring up to the people in charge.

Can we add notation to the computer games? I dont always have time to play real people and I come up with some amazing lines against the computer but i cant always remember them, or why i played them- so this would be a great training tool to go back and review games.

The other would be a "take back" button for online play- (no im not a patzer who trys to take back blunders.) Sometimes we all miss-click, or for one reason or another the piece drops on the wrong square or does not drop back to its original square. On yahoo's chess (sad site, but decent features) you have the ability to request a take back. This is fair because it allows the opponent to decline if the situation shows a true blunder and not just a missclick. It would also allow for less experienced players a 2nd chance if their superior opponent is trying to help them make better moves.

Any thoughts on a lobby for online chess? mostly for people to discuss chess and find opponents, but also to make new friends and have more people to play with and train with etc.

Just some thoughts. Mostly I would like the notation against the computer, because i just ran through 4 beautiful lines that i've never tried/seen before, and would love to analyze them...2-under 20 move wins on hard and all under 40 and i have no idea what i did that was so special :)

Great thread! I too, have some issues. Kidney transplants? I believe ICC offers them, it would be a nice addition. Heroin? I know the chess site in Laos offers this, if would not be a bother that is. Money? I rarely see chess sites offering money any longer, seems like a no-brainer.

Thanks chess.comSmile

If you want to save lines against the computer, there are three difficulty computer levels on Live Chess every day. Just go there and play against "COMPUTER-EASY" or "COMPUTER-MEDIUM" or "COMPUTER-HARD."

The TAKEBACK facility exists - for games started in that mode.
