I can't improve at the game and I am wasting too much time here . I am in 13th grade (college 1st yr) for 13 years , and I am spending useless 3-4 hrs here and even more ! I am also losing rating by more than 40 each day and also wasting time . I tried closing my account but I always get the urge to play and I can't control myself from reopening account and then playing in lichess although I want to leave the game . I decided this same thing for 10 times 1 month each for 10 months .... and today I played 50 blitz games and lost 50 rating (1780->1730). 20 bullet (lost 34 rating) Please help ?
I just want to abandon my rating gain urge , chess addiction, and make 50 games per day to 50 games per month and then 50 games per year , then 50 games per decade , then 50 games per century , then 50 games per birth
it says your account is closed. if you went off to get pregnant so you can have another 50 games, i would say that is not an efficient way to ration games
We'll have to discuss this matter with him when he opens a new account...
i have been asking myself this same question almost 40 years now. one thing i learned is that you can always leave chess but it will never leave you. whatever you face in life, you can come back to the chess addiction and it will welcome you with wide open arms and help you survive the dark difficult times. chess has become, in different stages of life, my medicine, my drug, my love, my enemy, my faith, my distraction, but continues to be my one and only soulful companion - it has allowed myself to see more clearly than the reflection in the mirror

Sadly and happily (?) this is true. I don't think it will ever be possible to leave chess once you invest enough time in it. So I will always be wasting some of my time on it. For better or worse...
you can check any time you like, but you can never leave
ive been trying to quit chess for over 20 years...
I hate chess but played 100,000 games so far and counting. So there is that .....
I have been playing chess since the Christmas after my 7th birthday. I am almost 48 now. I enjoy it too much to quit. I realize it is possible to improve my game, but I don't expect to become a grandmaster. That ship has sailed...
