50 move rule works fine.

While I understand that this game is frustrating, have you tried offering a draw? If this is the current game position, you will need to go almost another 50 moves before that type of draw can be claimed again though, since there was a capture pretty recently, and captures of course reset that counter.
Also, why in the world should this player be banned? That doesn't make any sense.

From move 91.Bxc5 to move 153.e4 is over 50 moves, so did you click the draw button?

Not at the right time or he wouldn't have made this thread. The system is fine.
So what r u saying is wrong with that game?

My frustration with this site is that it no longer works for Windows XP users (the game boards no longer show up properly).

If even one of those who have proclaimed "I'm leaving!", did in fact leave, these threads would have a lot more edge.

Exactly. You're making one out of yourself.

So you're implying that I don't know how to count? Please be more subtle in offending me. I clicked when I had to and it didn't work. Simple as that.
172 moves! wow! 
You must have tried to offer a draw, haven't you?

I wasn't necessarily implying you don't know how to count.
I was explicitly stating that one of a number of situations occurred:
1. You don't know how to count.
2. You do know how to count but counted wrongly on this occasion.
3. You don't know where to count from, or when counting should stop.
4. You counted correctly, but didn't click draw at the right time.
Good-bye

You are correct objectively speaking all d opposite colour Bishop endings usually drawish in nature.
Maybe ur opponent would've won on time.
But yeah u may b unlucky game wasn't drawn by server. ...
I played one game wherein position was drawn n offered several times during d game but my opponent didn't accept it since he thought he could win on time....but I played rapidly 50 moves with no captures n eventually server automatically drawn d game......here is d link 4 ur reference. ....http://www.chess.com/livechess/game?id=654019828
This site is full of idiots and you are not doing anything to ban them! Also the 50 moves rule doesn't seem to exist on this site!
Look at this guy, who repeated moves, trying to win a dead drawn position. Claiming a draw by the 50 move rule doesn't seem to work! Also this site is filled with losers like this one (I'm not going to put his name here, though)
Please look at the game. This site is starting to become a joke. I have been a member for quite some time but I think I'm going to delete my account sooner or later.
