Thanks for your answers all of you. well I think my move frequency its ok I move everyday I don't move all my games that is true but I move everyday. Moreover I used to finish all of my games as quick as possible you can ask the players I have played before but since my computer got a virus i have problems doing that so I apologized to all of you for any in ...[text shortened]... with a 1900+ rating drive me mad.
Thanks again for you answers.

That is why I have my moves set to 'Every few days'.
Other than that... you move when you want, and let anyone rushing you know that as soon as you're out of time they are welcome to time you out.

Originally posted by Talem16Well no, I'm not bothered at all. At the moment, I'm tending to move very slowly myself because I have loads of stuff to do. In the end, it remains your descision-if you take too long, people will time you out. I only get pissed off when I'm one move away from checkmating my opponent and that person stops moving...
someone ask you to move faster because you are moving each week,is that a problem I mean its a correspondence chess site is'nt it? can someone give me your opinion . I can't understand these arrogant people.

Originally posted by angie88How many times has this happened to you? I haven't played that many people, but every one I've played has resigned if the situation looked bleak for him, or her, and I have returned the courtesy everytime as well. My friends will often go as far as fighting until I get a checkmate, because I find the victory more copacetic that way, but that's something that they know, and they do that as a nice gesture for me. I don't expect that from anyone, even them. It's still nice of them though 🙂. I don't return that courtesy to them. If they go to town with my pieces, I'll raise the white flag before a checkmate.

Originally posted by geniusI always send reminders as soon as they come up. Not to be pushy or impatient, it's just that I can't stand all the clutter of things on my scree. I think perhaps, that reminders should only come up when the timebank has nearlly expired and not just automatically after a three day period, which is what they seem to do.
i got a move reminder in a 21 day timeout/28 day timebank when i had my vacation flag up, only having not moved in 5 days!
i mean, i even say on my profile that sending move reminders do me no good as if i haven't moved it's cause i can't actually get to a computer...
Originally posted by The PlumberIt is certainly considerate to play out the game when everyone else in a torunament is waiting for its completion...in my opinion.
Just my opinion:
The time constraints on the game are what they are. If your opponent doesn't like them, he shouldn't have accepted the game.
On the other hand, if the game in question is in a tournament and you go to the tournament page and see that 95%+ of the games in that tournament are completed, you might want to make moving in that game a ...[text shortened]... mes you're involved in there (you don't have to, but it might be the considerate thing to do).

Originally posted by Talem16These games have been going on for 4 months now, all of hte other games in the challenges were finished months ago. Talem has 320 games going. It is his decision how many games he has going, but in my opinion it is far too many and it is detremental to his play and rating and also to the movement of the clan up the tables. Talem has been unavailable for around 1 month now and in my opinion is not doing anything positive for the clan at the moment. This is why I am "rushing" him to finishe a few games, i don't think it is too much to ask!

Originally posted by Talem16your other clans are not my interest. if they feel that the way you are playing is acceptable then that is fine. however in my opinion having 300 games going is detremental to your performance, as I said before. You would be doing even more for the clan if you hurried up in these 6-7 games. It really is not that much to ask for you to get a move on in a few games, is it?

As for availability, you made yourself available a week or two ago because i asked especially as I was trying to set up a 20 man challenge. Before that you had not been available for some time.

Originally posted by Talem16I am not going to argue with you. You were unavailable for at least a month and were/are moving slowly in your games. Now you have agreed to do your best to finish these particular games quickly, and that is good.
I do move and I do not have a month unavailable!!
Thankyou for your co-operation,
fred
Originally posted by Talem16Dude u have 318 games in progress isn't that too much?! hell no you'll be moving fast! your opponents must figure that out by checking out your profile and seeing how many games u got going on AT A TIME! i'm amazed 😲
I do move and I do not have a month unavailable!!
But i agree with u, u move whenever u feel like it, as long as it's within the timeout.. let them solve ther own probs if they ask u to move faster!
I used to move fast, i've slowed down a lot, and i will slow down even more when i go for my summer vacations 🙂
Originally posted by Talem16There`s no point in rushing one`s clan members, all it will end up doing is driving them from the clan. The points will be there when the challenge is over.

Besides now the points gained are automated, are we all going to pester Russ to hurry up with getting them up? I dont think so.
