The only real problem is people stalling. Like do that in bullet, but nowhere else

You're a diamond member. You can play multiple games at the same time.

And for those who can't, you should know this happens... open other tabs and do other things when they start stalling. Maybe you could start a game on lichess or example.

thing is i get so into the other game (ive done it before) i completely forget about the staller and he just makes a move and i lose. I should try being proactive.

Turn on your sound so when he makes a move you hear it and revert to that tab.

I do, but sometimes it doesn't register and I'm just sitting there. I did the exact thing to one dude cuz he was taking a while to move and I waited for a sound (didnt hear) and i was the one who was stalling.

you all were once kids acting the same way its just the way life goes

The way life goes?

Put 1000 random people into a room, and they will segregate themselves by age / intelligence. That's "just the way life goes." Adults don't want to talk to kids, and kids don't want to talk to adults.

I'm just saying in general.

You don't actually know if your opponent is a kid or an adult, even if they claim either way.

Avatar of two

probably best to report them so they get a warning and stop stalling in the future

I know, I'm just saying about the majority of the population.

what do you mean the majority of the population?

Avatar of navinashok

majority of stallers are loser kids with no self esteem and need help

Avatar of Temporary_Closed-backsoon

Since you can't know which of your opponents are kids or not, how can you know the "majority of stallers" are actually kids?

Avatar of Temporary_Closed-backsoon

Yeah stallers are the worst. No respect for their opponents

As far as I'm concerned if a kid is annoying me, I can just block them. There's no need to block or prevent kids in general from playing or chatting on chess.com cuz some kids are actually pretty chill and are just here to play chess. If you're gonna sit there and whine about an annoying kid who is bothering you and you haven't attempted to block or report them then there's honestly no hope for you.

theres no point in blocking unless they are harrasing you in your messages and friend requesting you for the sole purpose of annoying you in chat. there is hope lol
