No matches against Players who deactivated take back

Hello,
I find it rather annoying when a Player in a random match deactived the possibilities to ask for take back moves.
This often results in a stituation after a misclick there is a position on the screen that would not have been on a board and has therefore nothing to do with the chess game I wanted to play. Is there any possibilty to prevent the algortithm that paris two random players to pair you with a player who deactivated the take back option?

Even if takebacks are activated, your opponent does't have to accept. So nothing gained with your demand.

But I know what you takebackers really want: You need a button to disturb your opponent whenever you got a bad position. Possibly bother them with endless chat messages if they decline. And mock them if they grant the takeback and finally lose. Encountered your kind dozens of times.

No, in about 80% of the situations the take back gets acceptet, and I accept it almost all the time.
But I assume responding to someone who attacks others personally instead of answering the question is a waste of time anyway.

There is no way to prevent pairing with a player who has takebacks disabled.

If your concern is to avoid misclicks I suggest you look at these two settings:

lichess.org/account/preferences/game-behavior#moveConfirmation
Here you can choose whether or not you want to be asked for confirmation for each move.

lichess.org/account/preferences/game-behavior#howDoYouMovePieces
Here you can choose to move your pieces by drag and drop, this way you are free to check for yourself on which square you are going to drop your piece.

With these two settings correctly sets, misclicks are nothing but negligence.

I used to deactivate but now I love it. It’s even better to let them beg and wait, har-har!

Wanna play takebackgammon, takebeggar?

Thanks for your answer,
I might invest the time to develop a browserplugin, that aborts the game before it starts, when it detects, that take backs are not activated. This would be a win-win for both players. Still anyoing that it's not implimented in the first place.

If you want to get a playban, because aborting games, stalling on time, leaving games will lead to this result.

I assume you mean extension (the bad old days of plugins are over), and you could call it "Annoy Lichess Users Until You Get Banned".

Why do you find it less annoying to cancel a game mid game, when a J'adoube can't be corrected than not to start it in the first place. In the first case the players lose a couple minutes, in the second case only seconds.

Both are annoying and should be punished, because even if the occasional abort can be tolerated (and indeed, sometimes people have legitimate reasons for doing so--yours is not legitimate), if everyone thinks like you, no one will be able to get a game. And I'm not sure what you mean by "cancel a game mid game," because you can't abort after the game has started, you can only resign.

Now, if there were a system like FICS' formula variable, where you never get paired in the first place with people who don't match your formula, that would be fine. There is already the rating range implemented, but nothing more complicated than that. Perhaps it would be worth implementing to stop people like you from abusing aborts. It wouldn't stop everyone though, because many people would be too stupid to use it (same happens on FICS).
