....it's wut I do.
They insult and abuse people because they are insecure about themselves and their skill. It gives them the illusion that they're superior than you and it covers their insecurities about themselves.
That is why you shouldn't worry about it, don't take what they say to heart. Just ignore it.
I too am sick of my mom beating me with a belt.
Don't let her. Call the cops if she tries too. That's assault, literally.
Name and shame these cads and bounders, take a screencast of their boorish behavior so we can send in an agent to destroy them at chess and then mock them.

Or maybe LilBoat was joking. Yeah, that happens sometimes.
I find it surprising that abusive players (and forum posters) are tolerated here, while at the same time chess.com expects people to pay for a premium membership.
If it seems like a player has abandoned the game, I'll just go get a snack or brush my teeth or some other productive activity, and I'll check back with another minute or two left.
For me, if a player chooses to time out I have no thoughts whatsoever, means I can just leave that game to one side and it's no skin off my nose. I've not come across any real trash talk or serious insults and I've played thousands of games now.
That might be a trap. What if they don't move for 2 minutes to trick you into leaving, but then move, and you already left cause u think abandoned the game, and then YOU lose on time. Unless it's a pre-move
I not had anyone being horrible to me yet. Few people stop moving when I'm winning but I like that , just tells me I damaged them too much
I disagree. Not everyone sees it as war. Bronstein considered his opponent a "partner". I like that idea. I don't dislike my opponent. I have no feelings at all. It's just a game. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. When I lose I learn. Why get mad about that? Why insult someone over a game? World is Fd up enough without making it worse with stupid insults and childish actions.
