The purpose of the time limit is to allow players to actually have the choice of using that limit. If I choose to move in a game that I have 10 days left to move before I move in a game that I have 3 days to move that is my choice.

For instance, some games take longer to decide where to move. Whereas Ludo or some other games don't require too much thought and I can move pretty quickly.

Time wins are wins. If you don't like losing on time then play with longer time controls. You can't blame the other person for not moving faster if he has plenty of time on his clock.

If you do like slow games you can check out Slow Time Controls fellowship and play as many slow games as you want.

RagingSeas: See my previous message. And then there is the one where the person is deliberately delaying things in a Tournament game. I have just found another player has 1,073 games on the go. That is so ridiculous. These people should be limited on Tournament games.

crosseyed: You are allowed your opinion, as others are allowed theirs.

It is permitted to take as long to move a game as the time limit allows.

What is not permitted on this site is "shaming and naming" players on public boards just because you think they "are stupid or rediculous" or taking too long to play.

There are members who don't like waiting for others to move, altho it is their priviledge to take as long as the time limit allows, and also to play as many games as they choose.

I suggest you join some of the fast players fellowships and play fast games and tournament only if slow players bother you that much. I also suggest you please read the user agreement on what is allowed to be posted on public boards.

baddessi: It is up to the moderator to decide if what I posted is not acceptable. So if you don't like what I put you can delete it since you are one of the moderators.
And I will only play fast tournament games from now on. Plus I will continue voice my opinion about slow players if I wish.

crosseyed: actually, it is up to the site what is allowed and not allowed. Flaming and baiting of other members and 'naming and shaming' as you put it is against the Brainking User agreement for all public boards.
You have the right to post your opinions and complain about slow players, just not the right to complain about specific members. Just wanted to clarify that for you.
