Number of online games at a time

I always thought that concept of correspondence chess ( online  chess here at chess.com) is to play without any time constrain. i.e. giving proper thought and analysis behind every move. Quality Chess.... 

Then I was pitted against a player who had 132 games  going on at a time. I found that amusing though wondering if she gets any time to think about any of the games.

I thought I have seen everything. How can a person play with 132 games at a time and get ful out of it.

Then todays I came across two players who had 281 and 456 games going on currently.

I have no idea what is the motivation behind that. Are they getting any fun out of this? I am sure they are not playing any game to their full or even half potential.

I guess some people enjoy having lots and lots of games, and play by intuition, or whatever strikes them. And there are some people who just have lots of time on their hands.

I guess so. one of them surely seems to be playing on intuition.

 I am getting used to having the feeling of winning 'on time' crushed at the last minutes.

If you're hoping to win on time, then you're not playing for the right reasons.
