Exactly. I don't know what OP thinks they're on to, but they are NOT on to anything.

I don't expect any of you to openly admit to fear. Your responses are predictable and nothing new.

To those saying, 'everyone here disagrees with you', if the majority of you are afraid to lose in a rematch, do you really think you'd be here agreeing with me?

I anticipated these responses.

But the fact remains... The main reason to decline rematches. FEAR

Fear? We don't do rematch because we don't want to. You think everyone does rematches like chess GMs do when they play against abother GM in chess.com. What's the big deal anyway? Is it bad? Does it end the world? Or just a reason to call everyone a coward since most of the people here don't even offer rematches or decline rematches. I don't decline rematches but when they win, most of them don't even do another rematch. If they want to do a rematch if their opponent offers them a rematch, then fine accept it, if they don't want, it's fine, you can't just call someone cowardly for not rematching.

I generally offer a second game when I played a very competitive game where I can tell I won due to a slip, especially if the person was playing in a respectful way. I try to make friends here as well.

The main reason to decline matches is because you might burn your breakfast while playing it.

NO LIFE

Well, if having a 'life' means not engaging in passionate discussions about chess on a forum... then sign me up for the NO LIFE Grandmaster title. 🏆♟️

But hey, at least we’re out here debating strategy, history, and the future of the game. What’s more exciting—pondering Magnus’ legacy or endlessly scrolling social media? I think we know the real winner here. 😉

Call it no life if you want, but this is our checkmate zone, and we’re living it up one thread at a time. 💻😂

lol well said

I've yet to see one person agree that fear is the reason they don't accept chess rematches.

If at least one person came forward and admitted it, the other excuses would be more believable.

Bro does not know when his opinion is not very accepted right now

No. The main reason is I want to play someone else.

If you decline EVERY rematch, especially when you win by luck, yes.

You sound like a guy with a lot of bad luck.

YOUR BOSSY

I am not trying to be bossy. I'm just pointing out something that's ruining the excitement in online chess

Who are you to "point out something that's ruining the excitement in online chess.?" What kind of festering mind does it take to think like this? Why not not just focus on your own way of playing and leave everyone else to theirs?

All I see are emotional responses, but I understand why.

Many people try to mask their fear with other excuses. So when they come across posts like this, it triggers them to dispute it by any means necessary, in an effort to keep their issue hidden.

Trust me, I get it.

Focus on your own chess not other chess chess would be so much nicer if we focused on how we play (hint it's how you get better )
