New lichess feature-Find Your Friends

Hi Dear lichess community,hi Thibault,hi my Dear @FischyVishy
:).
It's me,Captain Kristo.

What a World would be beautiful if people were nice to each other.
(Kristo).

Friendship and fair play game it is my Idea for life but some people
want to demolish and deny it:(We will not let them do it.Remember.

New lichess feature-FIND YOUR FRIENDS

I have many Friends from All World,this is not a secret.
People want to know Friends, it doesn't matter if it's from your country or from the end of the World.

*Three simple steps-

-search name of country or find flag of country from which you are looking for Friends,e.g Jamaica,
-next-select name of region or city for which you want to know your Friends,
-lichess.org browser should show your Friends,then(invite your Friends to play online chess or preferably in real life, eat a good lunch with them,drink for lichess,Thibault and me and be happy).

Thank You
-Captain Kristo-
Christopher

In summary: Implement features that get other social networks in trouble.

Random Fact: If you have a "friend," in-real-life (IRL), then, you don't need search features. Friends exchange messages and information via other channels. If someone does not want to share this information with you, then, the other person does not consider you a friend. (Why would you need to search for someone you're already friends with? Stalker? Why not just ask? "Hey, do you play on LiChess?")

Sometimes you meet people online. But most people you meet online don't want to be stalked, hounded or tracked around the web. (That's creepy.)

My vote: NO.

Thank you for every constructive criticism,
I'm sure that a lot of people don't know about existence of their Friends who are nearby or want to visit them on the go.

If you think positively, no one will be your stalker.

I invite you for lessons to the Slavs

>> "I invite you for lessons to the Slavs"

Has nothing to do with any Slavic people(s). Has everything to do with common sense. (In fact, a lot of "Slavic" people(s) might take offense to your suggestion representing Slavic people(s) as a whole. "Slavic" people(s) are more well known for keen caution than curiosity and hospitality.)

>> "If you think positively, no one will be your stalker."

There are plenty of people who think positively, and because they're too "positive," or forgiving, or just completely inept, have stalkers. (People like you who make excuses for lack of comprehension; or explicitly leverage it because of a self-serving mindset and inability to understand that most people weigh pros-and-cons.)

>> "I'm sure that a lot of people don't know about existence of their Friends who are nearby or want to visit them on the go."

I'll trust my friends to let me know where they are and when they're available. I'm not going to bother them otherwise.

Note: I trust my friends. I don't assume that I should be checking-up on them to maintain friendship across time and/or distance, let alone stalker-ish behavior(s) and mannerisms. (Or, in this case, suggestions.) I especially don't make friends online and then stalk them IRL.

Let's put this another way:

What if someone you know, but don't like too much, or don't have time for (but prefer other friends on time given) finds out you are nearby and starts bothering you? What is your response? (And why the hell is this person you did not announce your presence to bothering you? -- Assured you've reached out to those you want to spend your time around are aware of what you're doing.)

If someone is a friend, why wouldn't you be aware the person is nearby? (Maybe because that person is not a friend. Or does not want you to know. Or maybe someone just prefers his or her privacy?)

In my experience Slavic people(s) are a little more blunt, honest and direct than those of Western influence. They still have their nuanced, back-handed communication and slights and put-downs, the same as any culture. But for the most part, your "I invite you for lessons to the Slavs," is misplaced; your suggestion is more personally psychologically oriented than it is of cultural suggestion.

Grow Up.

Ending that message with grow up was a sure fire way to ensure you came off as a dick there mate

@rzenaikrzys It seems your thread was kind of ruined by the first person responding to it being so toxic.
There was another post about this idea recently and it also received mostly negative responses.
Myself I don't see any problem with combining an anonymous nick and your city, if it's voluntary and opt in. As hard as I try to imagine it, I just don't see the scenario where this is going to get you a stalker. I wonder what the people who are against this are imagining in heir minds??? What, is someone going to come to my city of two million people and go around asking "Are YOU President Donald Duck?" to everyone? Seems kind of amusing to me :)

A nice idea on paper, but fails in theory.

Thank you for spreading world peace, though, Mr. rzenaikrzys!

I think the teams functionality already provides this: lichess.org/team/all

Not a fan of going social network beyond that.

I don't want to talk to you @MrCharles because you're another happy clown in paradise,you didn't bring anything for the goodness of this chess site but your snout doesn't close,you must be eliminated from lichess.org,I will take care of it,I promise.

@FischyVishy +1,:)despite the differences,you are nice guy.

@OhNoMyPants ,I agree with you but you have to break the borders, I know it.

In cooperation with moderators and Thibault Duplessis,with our ideas and their hard work,we've improved this chess site,that's why I will not let their hand come over to us fleas like him @MrCharles.
Let peace prevail among us
Amen in this thread

"you must be eliminated from lichess.org,I will take care of it,I promise."
