I started my first game and had this message after my first move: "Please remember, this is a correspondence chess site, and it may take sometime for you opponent to move. " "Sometime" is used ackwardly here.
This should be "Please remember, this is a correspondence chess site, and it may take some time for you opponent to move." or perhaps a total rephrasing to make the message more concise.

"Please remember, this is a correspondence chess site, and it may take hell to freeze over for some of your opponents to finally move"
