here we go---My friend expect alot of rude,arrogant people to answer your question.
But you are correct--DONT go into the snakepit of live chess--play long term games.
Nicer people, and no people playing a 5 minute game for you, and 15 minuts for them. Con Artists. Snake Pit.
They call it Vacation time--I call it a disgrace to chess.
Ive played quite alot of games since I came to site and about half the games i lost is because time ran out but the reason I dropped so much time is because players have some way of logging off and during that time I lose my time whats going on?
that isn't possible. you don't lose time when your opponent logs off. you might want to check your own internet connection just to be sure it isn't yours.
i hope you get it figured out!
