this rule is unfair and against the spirit of chess the opponent uses unfair advantage of this rule and tries to play on blunders and if he fails he resigns and leave thats totally unfair KINDLY change this stupid rule
UNFAIR RULEZZZZZZZZZZZ
Sort:
Abandoned games count as regular losses, and are counted as such rating-wise.
You're probably referring to this game

I think the game must have at least three moves to count, the rule was introduced to prevent players from setting up multiple accounts and "playing" games among them to boost their main rating. However, a mate, albeit fool's mate, is something different. It's not right.
hello KOHAI mam..
i have been observing this continuously that some guys come to play bullet, play a couple of moves, give their QUEENS sac, abuse a little and LEAVE.
The result is I win without any increment in points.
I find this rule of an UNFAIR ADVANTAGE to LOSERS WRONG.
i can MATE a guy in 2 MOVES.
Still i don't get any points to my EARNED VICTORY.
kindly change this SILLY rule which has nothing to TAKE with CHESS.
I am Sorry if I hurt anyone's FEELINGS.
Looking for a positive response from your END.
THANK YOU.
