Does anyone play chess at Gameknot? They've been offline for about 4 days. Anyone know why?

Hi Peter
Yes I play on Gameknot. There were some times when I had to verify I was a human but I have not had any issues with playing or offline issues. -
Thanks John. Can you access Gameknot right now? I haven't been able to get in since last weekend.Originally posted by John Brown View Post"We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office." - Aesop

This is what I get when I try to access Gameknot via the usual method (icon on home page) or via Google search:Originally posted by John Brown View Post

By this point I will have been forfeited in all my games so maybe it's best to make the switch to a new (and better?) chess site. Any recommendations?"We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office." - Aesop

Are you using a VPN address? That's a bummer. Maybe try to rejoin with a new account?Comment

I dont know anything about GameKnot but lichess.org is completely free and very good in my opinion. LOTS of very capable opponents there...Originally posted by Peter McKillop View Post
I have completely given up on chess.com (it has a useless free level...) so lichess is it....Mike Pence: the Lord of the fly.Comment
