How to avoid a specific observer of your games? • page 2/3 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Anyway, it seems logical to me that if you block and report a user, they shouldn't be allowed to interact with you in any way. Not even to watch your games...

There are always 2 players playing a game, so this would result in you being able to block a friend of your opponent from spectating.

I know that he wants to see me lose because he's someone I know in person, from a chess club and he openly expressed it "you're a terrible player, you can't have that rating" and things like that

So he is your biggest fan

In an over the board tournament everyone is allowed to watch everyone else's games - friend or foe. This is not harassment in and of itself. Games played on lichess are viewable to the public - which includes everyone. Even if lichess forbade him from viewing your games then he could still view them without signing into his account and through a VPN if necessary.

Well anyone can go to your profile and scroll other games and click on game being played so technically anyone can still watch your games.

Join the club. I've gone online as a titled and without one. Without one, people tend to ignore you...and with one there always seems to be a rather obstreperous cadre of disbelievers and skeptics. ;)

Hi. There is a person who constantly observes my games in the hope of watching me lose. How can I avoid him?

Lol. Well, dont lose.

I really dont know why you validate people. Play your game. Ignore the observers. Let them see the result, whatever it is. It is public info anyways. Anyone can go and search your games and watch you lose. There is no difference if the view is live or recorded.

Dont pay attention to the guy. He is already blocked, its not like he is gonna mock you on a PM.

Dear @Mozartus , it seems, this particular person lives rent free in your head - you give it significance and it's your choice for it to be a problem or not.
