Depends. Usually for me a smaller minority would be bad, while an even smaller minority will compliment me on my win or console me after a loss. The vast majority will usually not make comments and just proceed with their next games.

Sorry your experience here has been so negative.  Not sure why, but generally the longer the time control, the better chance of meeting nice people.  And the coward part?  I'm assuming folks are declining your rematch requests?  Lots of us simply want to review each game while it's fresh in our minds before going on to the next.  Rematches have been the subject of many previous threads...

Black had a very rude opening in this game.

Well, calling people cowards is pretty hostile so maybe you just get the behaviour that your own behaviour begets?!

I have chat disabled so people are neither friendly nor hostile, they're just someone to play a game of chess with then move right along and forget them.

I don’t think anyone has ever initiated a chat with me. So haven’t noticed

Why are you calling them "cowards"?

You just generalized well over 25 million users. Pathetic.

Are those who declined rematches Cowards or Disobedient? Why would they obey a Rematch Command?

The heated debate has yet again begun! It's a miracle that the topic has survived to this day, with several hardships along the way, including locked forums, etc.

Just like anything you do in life, you will encounter some good people and some bad. I've definitely encountered a lot more cheaters on chess.com recently, but definitely not very many hostile people. Most people on this site are good, chess-loving people!

You need to stop desperately trying to advertise your channel through copy pasted forum answers. These people are looking for help not ads.
