It is not too long ago that chess was actually outlawed in her country.
It's true that between 1981 and 1988 (greg. calender) chess was
forbidden by Khomeini. I think he realised that forbidding Iranians to play
chess is a most futile exercise. The modern version of chess originated
from shatranj, which was the Iranian (persian) version of chess. Simply put,
chess is big in Iran. 🙂

away from the table for a few hours, right? The clock keeps ticking.
Same thing here. When you create a game, or when you agree to play a
game, there will be a time limit. It can be one day per move or fourteen
days per move. If you don't move within the given time frame, then
that's the same as abandoning the game. If you abandon a game, but
your opponent is there the whole time, isn't it fair that your opponent
should be allowed to claim the win?
Granted, you had reasons for not being able to move, but how can the
chess site know this?
Don't take it too seriously. We've all lost games on time out. I've lost
games on time out that I was sure I would have won otherwise. It always
annoy the perfectionist in me, but then I just shrug it off and start over.

Originally posted by padgerThere is no 'solution' but to have better computer or internet. Otherwise, I can just 'claim' I couldn't get online. The solution is to play 14/14 games and tell people you often move fast, but have computer problems.

There is no way for RHP to decide if you could or could not get online to make your moves, your game times need to be adjusted.
