Hi 4thDan, To silence spectators, click on the gear icon and select the 'mute spectators' option. see screenshot: -->

The spectators' writing is invisible to both you and your opponent if you've done this. Watching games or conversing with players is permitted - please refer to FlyOrDie's Rules of Use, which you agreed to when you started playing here. --> Rules of Use

If you need to report "unsportsmanlike behaviour you can use this link:

-to the 2nd point - you are saying it is not against the rules if a chess grand master decides to watch a game and tell one of the players( lower ranking) which moves to make?

No, that's not what I am saying because this would fall under "cheating - unsporstmanlike behaviour" - see Rules of Use and it should be reported. Kind Regards :) John

You are very welcome and I concur. I gave him advice on how to stop the interference and how to report unsportsmanlike behavior. (Since he doesn't have a dice yet and not the three necessary dots on it, reporting is currently only possible with the provided link.) Take care Stephane" John

Is there a way to speak privately? Having someone that stalks me read our conversation in the lobby isn't a great option.
Are you sure about that John? -you are saying if you mute a spectator in game your opponent won't see their messages either?

Hello stephane", I am absolutely sure! When you use the IN GAME mute function - as described above, All spectators are muted for Both players. I tested this this and and I used it several times when playing memory. In some cases my opponent complained because he wanted to speak to the spectators but could not do this anymore because i used that IN GAME mute function. Have a nice week-end! Kind regard, John

No, I don't know that. I know it's available for: Chess, Reversi, 8-Ball, Backgammon, Memory, Checkers. Unfortunately I don't have time to check this for all the other games right now. In case you are going to check this, please let us know. Thank you and kind regards, John
