You miss my point Larry. I am not suggesting that everyone who uses all of their times is cheating; in fact, I recognize that many if not most of the top NSA experts pride themselves on using all their time. However, I prefer faster games and one of the benefits of playing faster games is that most, if not all, doubt is removed as to whether your opponent is using an aid. The best part of playing fast games for me is that I can play more than one game during my lunch break at work.
I did not forsake this site because of suspected cheating; I left primarily because it's boring, boring, boring, to sit and wait for opponents to play. I have to do that at tournaments; I don't have to do it online -- there are other options available.
