Opponent Stalling

Avatar of AMYX0

Recently, many of the people I've been playing have attempted to stall out the game in the end in an attempt to make me resign. This doesn't change the game most of the time, but I like to play on the go and sometimes when other players do this, it causes me to be unable to play more or even finish the game. Please try to find a way to enforce the "no stalling" rule when checkmate is certain more.

There's already code that will flag members that do it too often

Yes some of my opponents will even stall for 10 minutes before their clock runs out when I win a lot of material or checkmate is close

Time is part of chess.

I report them every time, but that doesn't stop them in the game

Think of it as an exercise for your left click button as it hovers over the "report" option, and as an exercise in your patience. I don't care how long I have to wait; in the end, I win

I think premoves help a lot if the checkmate is near and if your opponent try to stall so long and then play some move before time out (I encounter this type of player too a long time ago that is tried to stall so long then played some move before time out when I was in the winning position also in rapid not arena).
