Infinite premoves

Womble: I agree with you that Lichess is often over-censored, but I wouldn't jump to blaming that on Thibault -- Thibault is just a dev, what you're talking about is an issue with the moderators. This is definitely an issue for another thread, but I'd argue that the problem stems from a lack of oversight due to the fact that there are only a few moderators.

That said, this is of course Thibault's site, so he can do what he wants with it -- I think the majority of the community is indifferent regarding any censorship.
Womble why do you say I was censored? Doesn't look censored to me unless they changed it back.

And I'm all for censorship. In fact, I reported one of the more offensive members of the chessbrah Twitch chat directly to Twitch after being told by Clarkey that lichess doesn't moderate the chat - even though it's directly on their site.

That being said, if they're censoring me for pointing out someone else's rating then they're in for a big surprise if they ever read through the Twitch chat logs that are being broadcasted daily on this site. Not to mention some of the language and offensiveness coming from the "streamers" themselves.

There has been no censoring, posts are never edited. In some cases they are deleted and you can notice that if you look for missing numbers on the posts. #10 is a perfect candidate for removal to prevent derailing as it is completely off topic, in this case it seems to late though. If you have a completely new topic to discuss, just start another thread and link to the current.

All "censoring" last days is the removal of a post with this content: "vibfhgbbz bihdkv fhghjdgb hjvhwgbjhsh jt ggru4hye huthunjjnfczbijzdznjdfnb bkvnw ugbwnb gng"
Pretty sure he meant Unihedron. But my point was that if he's not a skilled or competitive player why is he so intent on being critical of another's suggestion for improving gameplay?

For those who don't understand multiple premoves, it means move to this square if it's legal, and if not move to that one, and if not then to another one. You set up a number of premoves and it executes the first legal one. It can be very useful in an endgame with a king trying to find an unthreatened square while enemy pieces are flying around the board. It's how I played on FICS with BabasChess some years back.

oh man, don't ask new features please, if it add one, it will remove another great one...
What about the admins of the website? I want to hear a reply from them. And AFAIK, nothing is impossible to code.
