read the first post. it is eloquently stated. If you can't understand it, there isn't enough time to explain it to you.

When they have timeout periods of 3/7 you're only fooling yourself if you don't think they'll use it.

There's nothing wrong with it.

Set up your own games using 1/0 timeouts and quit whining.

this diet coke guy is mean.

Point taken...trust no one....their words are meaningless. Got it.

Alas, you are correct though, as in contract law....don't put it in the contract unless you intend to use it. I held out that in a bastion such as this, we wouldn't have a room full of barristers.

This diet coke has read too many whiners posting the same tired moans acting as if we care about their problems.

On a chess forum.

There really should be a seperate forum for whiners.

So, you are okay with the practice of dragging out games when it was stated prior to starting that it MUST BE QUICK or SHORT DURATION game? Whether I have only 6 games or 600 games going, it makes no difference to making my point. And, for the record, I am examining this site to determine if I want to join it and the incidents I am referring to are being performed by members. Sort of reflects badly on the membership, don't you think?

If you only want to play very quick games, then only accept games with time controls which you are happy with, such as 1/0.

If you really want to play a 30 minute game, then try live chess as a site like www.uchess.com.

mine too. but i'm sure yours are more uncomfortable.

i guess we better do something about it?

Actually, I am on Uchess and I was told by several memebers to check out RHP, which I am doing. Since I am new to the site I am having to learn all of the parameters and controls here, which are much different than at Uchess and (ughh) Yahoo. Thanks for the insight though.
