There should be a bar showing average move time and sleep times from time zones
Any other ideas?

@bobdaniel09 saidHave you tried Live chess here? The link is in the top right area of the page.

@bobdaniel09 saidThe timing is set at the start of the game. If people use their time, they ahve all right to do so.

@bobdaniel09 saidI am guessing that when you log in to play a bit of chess you are frustrated because non or few of your opponents have moved.

@bobdaniel09 saidThis is a correspondence chess site, not a live chess site. Yes, concessions have been made for those wanting live chess, but experience has shown that is not why people play here. But some don't understand that a response is not, and is not designed to be, instant.

Games take days. If this isn't for you, try another site featuring live games.
@kewpie saidOh, thanks for that, I didn't bother checking his profile.

@bobdaniel09 saidpeople who slow down when having a lost position will do so absolutely regardless what you do. (Read the chess novel "The Royal Game" by stefan Zweig or Schachnovelle if you read German)
What I mean is people who don't move for days when they are losing and people who waste your time by playing a few moves and then losing by timeout I am here for playing chess and not claiming timeout
@bobdaniel09 saidSo how do you measure time per move?
I think that if you want faster games you should have things showing how long they will take per move
@ponderable saidI once played someone, can't remember who it was, who seemed to delight in waiting until the last day,or even less, before his timeout expired to move.

@bobdaniel09 saidThe game parameters tell you how long each move can take.
