MISCLICK AAAAAARGH

Wonder that there are no wise guys who pre-move and ask for takebacks because of OBVIOUS mouse-pre-slips.

I have to concede that this server is flooded with hobby players who have persistent problems with nearly every common rule: castling, takeback, ep, mate potential.
Let's look at some other Onlinegames, let's say E-Sports, League of Legends, Hearthstone or Counterstrike. If you are a professional player on the big event and you misclick and your team loses because of that wrong action, you're basically busted. It's simply part of the players skill to play the game.
Sounds reasonable.

So, guys, you do not want to compare online chess with offline chess (rules). Well then, compare online chess with other online games. Either way, takebacks are not appropriate, case closed.
