I almost always rematch someone if requested. (Even if they have like a 2759 elo). It's fun to play chess even if you know you are going to lose.

Have you had much luck getting players rated 2759 to play with someone rated 980? And if one did play you, why would he request a rematch? Oh yeah, because you won! I didn't even think of that.
It's not easy being leader of the free world. Folks have a problem if you invade a country, cut funding to the UN and even if you're too busy to accept a rematch. Lonely at the top.

Yes, we were always accepting online rematches during 16th Century, and it didn't end well.

If you were wondering why I was yanking your chain, it was because I confused you with the OP (same first name). 
Now where is that OP?

No matter win or lose, they always run. Don't know what's the reason, such a great nation, but in chess I guess they are just cowards...
Oh there you are. I'm curious about something. You believe players who decline your rematch requests are cowards. I'm trying to understand your logic. So your opponent is courageous enough to play someone he has never played before but the idea of playing someone he has just beaten scares the crap out of him. Right? Evidently he's intimidated because he outplayed you. Uh huh. Is it because he beat you so easily that he knows he would have so little interest in the rematch that he would probably nod off and lose on time? Work with me here. I want to understand your reasoning.

Actually I have never been offered a rematch... I've played a lot of games but nevwr had a rematch request. I usually am puzzled by these posts.

Well, who's going to request a rematch from a checkmate genius?

Second grade logic
))) I just said that americans ALWAYS run from the table, NO MATTER the result, win or lose. And that made me wonder how the people of such a great nation, are so cowards in chess.

If people don't want to play you again whether they win or lose, it's doubtful the reason is they're scared of you. It's far more likely that they don't want to spend more time with an immature dolt.
Why are there so many rematch threads? Wow...

That's an easy one. It's because there are so many babies with fragile egos.
