I'm fairly new to the site. I've placed 3 open seeks on online chess. Two have been acepted by people playing multiple games. I've won 2 on time. Not very satisfying to say the least. Both opponents abandoned the game. A waste of my time. My question is, does the site automatically assign the game to a person who has multiple seeks out, or do these people accept the challenge personally. If the latter is the case, then to abandon a game without a word for what ever reason, is very rude and unsportsman like. Can't do anything else but  just vent out my frustration.

grnknt, have you tried turn-based chess ?  You can choose to make a move in 3 days, which is not very much time and people tend to be more open and say....polite.

Thanks for your answer to my question.

I just needed to vent. I know that no matter what, people will be people, it seems that you're one of the nice ones.

plenty of nice people on here, and some duds :)

Thanks erik for the encouragement, you're right I have found some very nice people here, and you're one of them...gracias!
