Playing too fast.
Sort:
The best way to slow down is to use the analysis board function to check your moves out before you make them. Works for me, sort of anyway :=)
MY ADVICE WOULD BE IF U SEE A GOOD MOVE STOP AND FIND A BETTER ONE.

If I move to fast I also make stupid moves. My advice is when you see a good move, write it down in the notes and have a look another day. If you think its still the best move then make the move.
I can understand your problem because I have it too. I work hard at taking my time and thinking the move through, however as the games progresses I seem to speed up. I guess it is a problem most beginners have and hopefully grow out of. Try to stay conscious of slowing down. When you are ready to move tell yourself to look again. Keep working at it, it will come.
i teach u...
1.bind your hand using a rope .
2.after that use your chin control the mouse.
3.if you cant do that call your son click submit for u.
if u do like that ,i sure u will have the time to thinking before move your piece!!

LOL, the problem with that is that I wouldn't be able to trust my son to make the move I tell him. He would likely make his own move! And as hard as that may be to believe, he's worse than me (for now, he's about to turn 7).
I took a glance and noticed that you are playing 15 games at once :) I did the same thing, and once I hit that many games I felt rushed, since I had so many "My Moves" ready. I got careless and lost 150 points! (admittedly, I'm not the best chess player anyway :) ). I let my number of games dwindle. I'm down to five, and I move much more slowly now. Part of the reason is that I don't have people "waiting on me" much, so I just keep looking at the board while it is other people's moves. Now I've regained about 100 points, and hopefully I can regain the last 50 :)
Heh. I play Live Chess at less than 10 seconds a move, regardless of time limit. I once won a 15 10 game with 18 minutes left.
Another good option is to go to your choices for your account and make sure you do not use the touch move, but use the mov and submit button that will help. Also like someone else suggested look for a move and then find a better move. Another good thing to consider is using the notes section to plan out your moves. If it doesn't fit with your plan it is probably not good.
To find a good move, and then to find a better one is an advise I will carry with me for the rest of my life! thank you!
Speeding kills,I know how fun speed chess is, and it is hard to play slow when you are so used to playing fast. I just take a few deep breaths and move very slowly.
Here's my advice, though I should learn to listen to it myself, if you want to slow down.
Slow down.
I stopped playing chess after the bar and shot up several points... very similar to sitting on your hands. Someone said earlier, 'once you find a good move, look for a better move.' Thus, when I know I'm not at my best, the only move I make is an adjustment to my game notes. A good idea today should still be a good idea tomorrow, provided that one does not time-out.
OK, when I comes to chess, I'm not very good (as anyone could see w/ a quick look at my profile), one of the main reasons I'm not very good is that I play WAY too fast. I play chess here like I'm playing blitz, and it costs me. Does anyone have any advice for helping someone slow down while online. When I was a kid, the coach I had for a while used to make me sit on my hands, that isn't quite as practical on computer, but I wonder if anyone knew of similar type advice.
Thanks,
Josh
