Online Chess drawback

I have seen that in many games in online chess positions with 3 day time control , the games run on endlessly even when u have a completely won position ( bishop up, king and pawn ending with many pawns) It is very irritating

Well, there are a couple of major factors:

1. Your rating. A piece up isn't always a winning advantage. Against a 2000 in online chess I'd probably resign after going a piece down. Against players below 1600, I've probably recovered the game more often than I've lost.

Not only this, but the higher rating you play at, the more likely your opponent recognises an obviously lost position.

2. Playing friends. If I'm playing someone I know, I also resign early, just because it's not in my interest to drag out a game against them. People probably wont want to play you again if you do so.

how about these games?

And I am referring to positions  which would be over in 5 min in an OTB match

Whats the hurry to win? my friend.

You are playing correspondense game and you got to develop some real patience!

There is this one joke i read somewhere.

Two good friends, one living in the north and the other living in the south pole were playing a correspondese chess game. This was in the good old dats when people used postal system, and it took 6 months for the posts to reach the opposite pole. Thus it took 6 months for evry move to be made.

The game started and it reached a very tense position when the first friend made a speculative queen sacrifice. He waited for 6 months keen and restless to see if his sacrifice was accepted or not.

After 6 months he got the post which said- "jadoube"
