This isn't meant to be something like "stallers should be banned" it's more of what do you do for fun in a long game where your opponent stalls. Eg Stickbug myself

depends on the time control. If it's longer than 5 mins I get up get a book and read

Take a shower, clean the kitchen, walk the dog, do some studying. But, best of all - Post to the Forums!!!

look for new players

The next time you play them, just abort the game. It is unlikely that you will get paired with the same players all the time.

Do something else, comeon chess is fun my friends but it is not our lives! We have plenty of other things to do, you could have a job, or can just keep your mind sharp by writing, communicating, researching etc. The time you can spend being productive is limitless.

So don't worry if someone is stalling, if so make sure you are doing something productive!

i mean, it's a reportable offense, so you can slap that button if you want to. if you don't, anything on this list is fine.
