opponent(s) leaving chat instantly after losing a match

So i`ve been playing for 3-4 hours of rapid chess after being absent for a while. And one thing i noticed is that when i win a match my oppenent often leaves within 1-2 seconds when i want to play some more. They are like instantly leaving the chat when i press rematch. Is everyone so obsessed with there ELO rating that they dont want to play again.

My win/loss rate on matchmaking must be like 50%. If i lose a match i stick around wanting to beat the guy/woman who beat me. Trying something different when i draw the same color twice. But this does not seem to happen that often the other way around.

Not everyone feels compelled to play the same opponent twice in rapid succession, even if they want to play more than one game in rapid succession at all.

Personally, I rarely play rematches (although it does happen) because I usually want to review the game I just played.

Thanx for your reply. I usually wait till the end of the day for match analysis. Usually 2-3 minutes for a 5m match. But then i`ve got a good bunch of matches

When I used to play at the tables in San Francisco the only rating system was how long you could stay at the tables. There was money on those games so you couldn't hide behind ratings there. You lose a few games at your tables and your ratings take a dive... from your pockets!

I do the same. I want to analyse my game

If people want to leave after a game they can, they have no obligation to vs you again. If anything YOU'RE being the weird one, wanting to rematch when u can press "play" and INSTANTLY get another teammate. Stop trolling the forums.

I agree with you friend! No one can also owe me a rematch. No one owes us a thing. I just toughen up and just move on. Unfortunately, not everyone is going to listen to our advice, those people might just ignore us :/

By the way, rematch in rapid??? Cmon, that's too much for me, if you want rematches, just try some blitz or bullet or some variants. But that's just me...
