Losing time when network cuts off

@I_invented_google as i mentioned earlier you get a certain amount for the whole game which is normally more than enough to switch devices or get a charger. I tested it and i can go from my phone to pc in under 2min from off for the pc.

The problem is with unstable connections you eat that time away 2 or 3 seconds a time meaning you wont have much.

There is no cure lichess can give for a bad connection that is a cure only you can give

Bad Wifi or internet = nothing working

Oh so you prefer making people like me not able to progress!

Sometimes when I play
There is not network at all
Which means
That I can’t change device
So there is no solution

You all don’t seem to understand the problem since you didn’t experience this. And your only argument is that there is cheaters lmao.... Isn’t it your job as mods to eliminate these cheaters?!!!!
