Unsporting Behaviour Needs to be Punished.

I was playing someone who wouldn't resign. I was SUBSTANTIALLY ahead. 

 This person says that he is leaving in Romanian, 'pa' ( = Bye in Romanian ) and goes afk for 12 minutes. Then makes a move with 10 seconds left on the clock. ( I assume that because I checked at 1 minute 30 then just left for good ).

He then moves and I lose. 

FIRSTLY.. I can't play another game of Online chess without forefeiting. So he ties me up for 12 minutes. Then he makes his move to preserve his rating. Its pathetic. 

I hope some of you leave notes on his wall and shame him. It really annoyed me. Not because I lost, but because someone had the audacity to be such a cheat. 

I looked at his other games and he doesn't resign in any of them. The two matches he has drawn are because of stalemate. Hes just a really bad sport. 

Hey Chris

This does seem lame to me.  You don't have to resign in any game but then seeing that you have him substantially beaten in material alone is unsettling? I'd agree he is a bad sport. How then does the timing work if he won on time?  I haven't played anyome here yet so I don't know.

rich, you are getting close to 18 years old. The time is overdue to stop acting like a child.

 Grow up kid.. look at you.. you suck at chess, holy shit stop attackign other people when you suck. Your still a teenager and you show no signs of improvement, just idiocy, grow up... honestly, your acting like a 4 year old who wants candy.

Happened to me many times before.

But we shouldn't shame him, he could just be 5 or something(and have a Romanian Origin).

DON'T SHAME 5-YEAR-OLDS.

dude if you lost on time it's your fault lol.  If your opponent goes away for 10 out of his 10.1 minutes and you aren't paying attention you DESERVE to lose I mean come on man he was playing a mind game with you that's just part of chess and HE(or she) WON.

Hey! Be nice.  1400 isn't that bad, some of us can't put any time towards studying chess!

Let's not have an argument, this is off topic.

Ppl do this trickery to win.

Erase it from your mind forever, and move on.

i kind of agree with tony.  it is legitimate to lose on time, and it's also legit to play mind games to force your opponent to lose on time.  the fact that you were low on time means he still had a chance to win, which he took.

What this guy said.

/thread

Sorta your fault, chris. Check back every 1ce in a while, and yer good.

We should end this thread, unless rich and serbian still want to quarrel.

you should of removed kb6 then h8=q mate

I guess they don't.

We can lock this up now, but that's up to the staff.

rich, your chess skills are as respectable as your grammar skills.

Just grow up you little boy and stop delighting in finding someone you think isn't as good as you in chess. In a month or two he is likely to out-rate you in any case.

"My grammar could play a better game than you...!"

 I guess the "grow up" message didn't get through lol!

It's about time rich at least received a warning from staff about his behaviour.

i hate to agree with the majority here. you accepted a game based on certain criteria. you accepted that there will be a time limit and that players may use the allocated time as they choose when you started playing. its always unfortunate to lose on time like that though. i haven't looked up the game but the argument  seems to be based on how to use time that you are given. good luck in your future games though. i myself much prefer to play correspondence as i cant always make moves as fast as my opponent wishes.
