Can't create game with specific side any more

Luckily, I play most of my games against the same people on invite, and have not started one colour picked game in the lobby even once. So for me, there are no changes with this update, and I support it fully :D

You did not answer. Why do you think, you are as black colour player better than white colour players?

The people in your profile downsites are changing a lot. 160 black games. Wow.

@vasyattt
Yes, which is why I am advocating for this update to remain! No more mistreating of others for the mild comfort of the abusers.

I don't think that. Again, the point seems to go over your head :))

I play under fair circumstances, the same circumstances that Lichess now enforces. I may continue to do so, because my opponents know in advance that we are playing under these conditions and we are both fine with it :) That is why this Lichess update is great, only fair circumstances are allowed now

Where did I say that? I don't know what people in my profiles downsides are, please explain

I just read
The name Lichess is a "combination of live/light/libre and chess"

I moved here from chess.com because chess.com forbids long sequences of one side and I was banned there for this.
But seems it came here too and world liberty is not a part of lichess any more now it is just live and light left.

But is OK everyone selects their own way to success and if liberty of someone not important should be sacrificed for this... it is perfectly good :)

Stop talking in that way with me!

Then stop missing the point!

We are not saying you should not play 100% with white, or 100% with black. What we say is that forcing people to play under these unfair circumstances is only acceptable if they agree to it. Irrespective of it being white or black, you must not put other people at an unfair disadvantage without their knowledge or consent.

If you have a friend that wants to play 10000 games in a row where you play white, go right ahead!

Lichess does not forbid this at all. In fact, you can go and invite people to play with you right now and play 1000 games in a row with the color of your choosing.

You can even start from a certain position 1000 times in a row, nobody minds.

The only thing that has changed is that you can only do this if your opponent agrees with it. That's the spirit of Live/Light/Libre and definitely Chess!

I wrote this to the other guy, why did you answer to it?

Do you have more than one profille ?

I went ahead and corrected your message to 1 question mark per question :).

You actually made the same, invalid, point to me about having a slight unbalance in my 75 games. And you tagged me in numerous messages, so I answered the one I saw :))
