I like to talk during bullet games

In a tournament, you shouldn't talk because it would distract your opponent and other players in the tournament hall.

In a casual game, if both players want to talk, sure, just talk. Why not?

MrChatty

Just turn off the game chat if it annoys you

Typing in the chat is not exactly talking, it's something completely different.

I don´t talk because I am a misanthrope.

I can’t concentrate on the game and talk at the same time

I can not manage talking and thinking at the same time.

MrChatty

If there are other marches going on, you could be sending secret messages to your teammate.

What did you have for breakfast? Means “move the rook”

When did you start playing chess means “take with the bishop”
