Cloud playchess

Hi
Why is it that playchess put on the cloud has fewer features than its client counterpart?

Only those here who use both might have an idea.
A question better to ask on Chessbase.

Are you posting in blank verse?
"Do you play chess?"
"Yes, but I prefer a game with a better chance of cheating."

Not consciously, Justin.

I may have blanked the original question.

I do frequent playchess, but have never played there.

As for clouds...

Clouds of all hue,
With garments of dew
From Ocean's unchangeable bed
To mountain's green summits tread...

O, then I declare, that you can't be aware
That 'tis they who the sophists protect,
Prophets beyond the sea, quacks of every degree,
Fops signet-and-jewel-bedecked,
Astrological knaves, and fools who their staves
Of dithyrambs proudly rehearse -
'Tis the Clouds who all these support at their ease,
Because they exalt them in verse.

(Aristophanes, The Clouds)
