Do you like to be sent move reminders or are you irritated by them?

I just made everything from RHP go straight to my archive on Gmail. So I never ever see them.

Reminders are useless in my opinion. Everyone knows what the time controls are, so what's the point of having reminders? I do however have a policy of sending one reminder per game, just to be polite. That said, I respect and obey the time controls of the game or tournament I'm playing in, and expect my opponent to do the same

Yeah, I think most people are irritated by them. I used to send them, but not nearly as much anymore. But if there is a skull next to the reminder option, usually I'll be courteous and remind the person, but if they don't move, then I take the skull.
