Since I joined this website, I’ve realized it’s full of cowardly players who don’t actually enjoy chess, they enjoy ELO points. Let me explain.
I usually play bullet chess, and I’ve always wondered why this site doesn’t offer a proper match mode, at least for bullet. Whether I win or lose, if I offer a rematch, my opponent will refuse it 99% of the time. Maybe it's because they won and want to secure the points, or because they lost and don’t want to risk losing even more ELO. That’s exactly my point: they care more about gaining points than playing chess!
In real competitive bullet chess, a match consists of multiple games, not just one. Overall, my opinion of this website is negative, and this is just one more reason why.
Chess.com should introduce a match format of at least three games, so players can experience real matches, not just single encounters. And if someone quits before completing all games, all remaining points should go to the other player.
