I  played a game against a player called [NAME DELETED by Moderator] today. It was closely contested and in time trouble I found a good plan but blundered.

He asks for a rematch, then we play two moves before he call me an

"idiot" and leaves.

 

Is this typical on chess.com?  Are members allowed to behave in such unwarranted

and rude fashion. I enjoy the site, but players like [NAME DELETED by Moderator] are taking me away from it.

 

Has anyone else encountered abuse like this? What do I do about it?

In the eyes of one of my recent opponents, I was just sitting there doing nothing the whole game, "just like everyone in my country."

My goodness! This must take the prize for hilarious statement of the week!! Okay, as to the question of rematches, I am often offered rematches and I take them with all gladness. In fact, most of my rating was built on match situations--I mean playing 5, 6 or 10 games against a single opponent. Luckily, none of these turned out sour.

In my case I had a great game and lost by fractions of a second. Immediately he used "faget" and "monkey" one after the other. I replied, "Hahaha", "Thank you" respectively. You could try my technique in your next encounter, but leaving chess.com? Naaahhhh!!!

Some trolls ask for a rematch, and when you accept...they disconnect!

It happened to me too, someone asks for a rematch and when you accept they abort.

Makes no sense. I take their names, and next time  I see them, I stick it to them.

Mistake, sir. Sitting behind a computer half way across the globe anyone can hurl all kinds of insults and say anything and get away with it. It's a waste of time! If you can't get this person to meet you face-to-face and say what he wants to say in your face don't give yourself a heart attack. Move on.
