I want peanuts!
Rematches

yeah the obscenity if awful. and if you like someplace else- I can't begin to guess why you play here.
It's busy and there are a lot of games. I'll just report abusive things when I come across them. Points taken about the no rematches, I guess I just like to play a few games with the same person.
Is it possible to play people of different ratings in a live chess game ?

Hello Robin,

OK, no problem - apologies for that

Never giving rematches is equal to never resigning. If you accept either 'never' is okay then so is the other. You cannot have one without the other.

False equivalency, the two have nothing to do with each other - at all.

I don't give a rats nose whisker about your equivalency.
Never resigning peeves some opponents. Never giving rematches peeves some opponents.
Players are free to never resign, or never to give a rematch.
These two have nothing at all to do with bad manners.
They are both within the rules and etiquette of chess.

NM, you;re not worth it.

Never resigning or never accepting a rematch do not break any of the rules of chess. They are within the ambit of the rules. I never said or even suggested that the rules of chess say you must accept/offer a rematch or resign at any point in a game. Your angry response to my rats whisker obviously clouded your understanding and you hit back with your miserable slurs. Just suck it up and don't answer in anger next time.

What on earth are you blathering on about?
Your delusional ranting about "etiquette" and the fact that you cannot accept that people think differently than you does not leave you in a good light.
When you grow up and see that people have different ideas than you and different priorities in life then maybe you can join the adults.
Until then - try and have a nice life (I know it will be hard since you can;t even grasp a simple concept like this discussion without going psychotic.)
By-bye now. Smoochie-smoochie!!!

You lack all honesty. Just admit that my comments are relevant to this thread. Your full of personal attacks when your challenged by sound reasoning that eludes your simple mind.

I feel better after this thread about the no rematch, I'm over it now. I'm used to RL chess and the availability of games online makes a rematch not that important.
Not resigning mid game is best, people make mistakes and I fight back more once I lose my queen, I have lost my queen and won on a few occasions - especially during Blitz. Resigning a few moves from checkmate is fine, there are a few instances when I will resign.
Gawwd...why do I imagine the OP sitting in a top hat and tails, smoking a pipe and berating the peasants?
Im thinking of Mr. Peanut now...
