What I meant was that if you pay by credit card, you don't have to pay for two years. If you pay by cheque or this mysterious money order, you have to pay for two years because otherwise it wouldn't be worth the cost and work for the site owners.

Some of us from the old school, just don't trust giving out our credit card numbers 😛 Therefore only other ways would be Cheque or money order, then it is for 2 year period, I was just trying to get that part out is all. 🙂

I looked at your games, and you haven't been waiting for much more than six hours in any of the games, and much less in most of them. This is a site for Correspondence Chess. A move per day would still be considered fast. Also, consider that your opponents may live in a different time zone or may have a different rhythm than you, so they might be asleep or at work or school right now.
How patient and gracious of you, Nordlys, to take the time for this post.

The post that was quoted here has been removed
But in Available Open Invites room people call the game fast game or over 1500 so its rude to accept if not honouring the conditions no? Or there is no honour among chess players?

You may want a fast game when you put up the Open Invite, but then something happens - your internet connection gets cut off, your computer gives up the ghost, or you get sick and are off work and don't have a computer at home - there's any number of things that can go wrong. The majority of people on this site play fair with their games. I'd make an exception for p1200 ratings though, tyre-kickers sometimes to play one or two games and then are never seen again. If they've made it to 5 rated games they generally last.
