People who depend on clock to win WHEN IN THE LOSING POSITION

ARE THE WORST OF ALL TIME

admit your lost like a man

dont cling on to some numbers to save you and claim "its part of the game"
if you lost, you lost
why man
im not hurting anyone
just venting a bit
i was beating a 2100 and he knows he lost
play games with increment involved.

It is not your opponents fault you spent your clock achieving a winning position and didn't save time to convert it into a mate.

time is part of the game. (and mouseslips in online play too).
You played 5+2, why didn't you play few random checks to get more time?
I HAVE MOVE CONFIRMATION ENABLED BECAUSE I HATE MAKING MOUSE MISTAKES. THAT EATS UP A FEW SECONDS SOMETIMES AND IT HURT ME THERE I WILL ADMIT

IM A REALLY NERVOUS MAN
Well, for blitz you should certainly turn that off. You'll get more accurate with your mouse the more you play, so eventually mouseslips will become extremely rare, just take a bit of extra time at first if you're not confident by letting your pieces hover before you release the click if you really really want a form of confimation for blitz.
thanks for your opinion ill put some effort into it
There seem to be some typos in this thread title and the original post. I'm guessing this is what was intended?

People who agree to a game with a time limit AND THEN WHINE WHEN TIME LIMITS ARE A PART OF THE GAME

ARE THE WORST OF ALL TIME

I hope I got the stupid, random capitalisation right, that's the hard part.

In a game with 2+0 time control, it's not a question of "who can checkmate first," it's "can you checkmate your opponent while using less than two minutes"? And for you the answer is apparently no. Your opponent did not lose, you did. Deal with it "like a man", whatever that is supposed to mean.
2 minutes means 120 seconds and it's possible for a exprienced player to make 40 moves taking 3 seconds at average but I found the 1 min game to be really less time for a good chess game.
