should i accept takebacks?

I dont know,last game my opponent accepted my 2 takeback offers..But i didnt accepted him and i won..I dont feel good.
> last game my opponent accepted my 2 takeback offers
Well I bet he's sorry now.
I would have accepted the takeback in that situation. But in the end it is your decision, you arent forced to accept the takeback.
Generally I wouldnt accept takebacks except for obvious mouseslips (also not if it is a bullet game). Taking your time to make sure that your move is good, that is also a part of chess.
#1: That's kind of a d*** move, NGL. If your opponent is accepting your takebacks, then you should extend him the same courtesy.
However, no reason to feel TOO bad about it: in the cosmic scheme, takebacks in internet chess are about as significant as a single atom in a grain of sand is to the entire universe.
Well, I accept them if they're obviously a mouse slip, but not more than two times.
Nah just play more games of chess :)
I accept takebacks almost all the time, except for when a guy blundered mate in 2 because it wouldn't be fair if i took that back lol
