The usual start is to say nothing and shake hands.

The usual end is to say "good game" and shake hands.

People from Vulcan usually will say something like "peace and long life" instead of "good game".  Women usually will add "would you like me to get you some tea?" after "good game".  Fish will usually just say "blob, blob, blob" , which loosely translates to "if I beat you, then you really suck".

Hehehe well you're hilarious but unfortunately you've given me an epiphany I'm going to type *shakes hands* with everyone at the start and leave it at that. I like dominating people in real life with my surprisingly good handshake so this works perfectly.

BTW blob blob blob? your fish have issues ours say glub glub glub.

Well chess can still be psychological across a internet connection.  Especially in live games were you can use  your playing speed to mess with a opponent.  Or say things to you get off your game.

No darling it's YOU who will be doing a runner am afraid. Perpetual lies nowhere near as good as perpetual check even if you can do both you should give the lies a rest. Boring sad stories not required here.

I started this thread to try and find out what is good or acceptable / common online chess ettiquette and I think it's been very helpful to me. Good day to you sir.
