Claim Draw not working?

Might this be because of the incomplete game historys not being able to recognise 3 move rep. Russ said something about it in his thead.

No, the user tried to claim too early first I believe, and by offer draw next. The draw was refused once or twice I believe, but finally the draw was agreed on.

Read the wording in the first post, the 3 rep did not happen until after the user posted. By that time, they were requesting draw, not forcing.

I made no mention of the three repetitions in the initial post, but that's when I tried to claim the draw.
I *think* I tried it when I made the move leading to the 3rd repetition, but it is possible that I claimed it a move later - which led to a different (not repetitive yet) position.

Where is the claim draw button?? I've looked all over for it and can't find it.

The link is under Offer Draw when you are on the board and it's your turn.

Hello!
In this game, http://www.redhotpawn.com/core/playchess.php?gameid=5441478, I'm trying to convince the opponent that is a draw, but he didnt accept my draw offer, and also claiming draw has no effect! What should I do?

Game 5441478

Sorry, this a game in progress. For someone to give you any help with it while it is going is against the rules.

I didn't ask on help for what to move...
I've just complained that this game is an never ending game, though it's obvious that any player would not move otherwise than keeping this noncombat position. And my opponent constantly refuses my draw offer...

Do you know what rule is next for a draw? Then we can talk.

ok, thanks for your "help" 🙁

I know it is frustrating and it may seem nit-picky, but if I say anything to you that could change the outcome of this game, RHP might consider that "helping". Helping another player is against the TOS and at the worst I could lose my membership. Use "send feedback" at the bottom of any page and perhaps a mod can explain it better
