So I have to wait 1.5 months to get 2 wins vs. someone who has been banned from the site
I thought that games with banned people were automatically resigned
Na but if you send a message to a member of staff they will hand you the game.
Often playing well past when I should have taken a break, I'd like to take this opportunity to propose up to one week of vacation in the middle of a 10 minute blitz game.
I'd like that too.
Has chess.com already had threads on vacations?
That's what you should be asking yourself.
normally i'd argue but i recently experienced this problem and it's definitely annoying
in this tournament game which is 14 days per move

after move ...34 Nc3! ,the game took like 10 months to finish . game went really fast up to that point but after the 34th move i had to wait 14 days for every move

So you joined a 14 day per move game and are complaining it took 14 days per move? I completely understand... I yell at my opponents when they call me for running out of time in a 1-0 bullet game.
@EricFleet
i don't think you completely understand ,i think you missed the part where i said the game continued pretty fast before the losing move of my opponent . from that point on he slowed down intentionally just for the sake of being annoying . always making moves on the 14th day at the last minute
it's ridiculous and you trying to defend this is even more ridiculous but as i said at the beginning of my previous post ,i'd be in your shoes and arguing with me on this if i didn't have such an experience

Dude, only 10 months? You play incredibly fast games here. I have had games go three years.
Ok interesting thing to lookup - a stainless steel, antique, all-purpose no-prize to whoever can find out the record for the longest game in terms of time (not moves) at chess.com.
How many years did that game take?
definitely not
if I have a game last 52 years, I would want a week vacation somewhere in the middle of it.
There needs to be a limit on how long of a vacation you can take at a time. May I sugget a week long vacation to be the limit at one time?
It won't ever have a worse idea unless chess.com appoints me as the official chess.com jokemaster who decides taste, decency and what is humorous in all jest, jokes and comedy on this site.

And when I take my typical 2 week vacation every year, this will help me how, exactly?
