The premoving rules here are absolutely insane. Use no time att all ??? At least 0,1 secs should be used every move. And preferebly 0,2-0,3. I also guess that I am the only one here who never have used it and never will either. I prefer to try to play chess, as good as I can.
if you have A king next to an enemy pawn premove going down dangle down, because he push it
Well, premoves are giving advantage when you're playing at low time and/or with increment.
The only premoves that I use are when I have 2 moves plan (check with fork for example) and nothing can interrupt it. Also in the endgame if you're winning sometimes you can premove pass pawns if they are save.

@BGW52 Imagine you're playing a very good game against a random opponent, and you end up in a winning endgame but with very little time. Your opponent is just making fast random moves, trying to burn your clock and win that game that you have fought so hard for.
You would probably be glad that the concept of premoves exist , don't you think?

Commendable! People who stick to their principles despite the influence of the populace are, on balance, the only reason mankind has quasi-survived thus far.
Rest comfortably knowing that should you ever reverse your adjudication on the matter, that you are, objectively, at least 100 points better than whatever you show now.
All of that said, I don't agree with you at all.
In my bullet days, very long ago, I made note that bullet chess is about addiction.
All that bullet chess is about, is using 'fight or flight' psychology in order to trick your adrenal glands into dumping adrenaline into your bloodstream. Some do it with physical danger, others with hard drugs, others with gambling.
Bullet chess is about each side having 5 seconds left on the clock. That's it's purpose. That's why everyone plays it.
Ultra-bullet is a hyper-acceleration that's intended to get rid of that boring first 30 seconds, and to produce much more of the "value-added" 5 seconds vs. 5 seconds instances.
So once you understand what bullet is really all about, it's total purpose for existing, you should find no qualms in evening the score and using the pre-move for what it was intended; i.e., "fun".

Reply to thoughtless2 : No, I would never ever be glad that it exists. I prefer to lose on time then. If people are proud with running around like idiots with a king for 50 moves to timewin, fine with me and fine if they are proud. I will never lower myself to such behaviour. I will at least try to play chess ! It makes me feel better. And I never play bullet 1 0 either since all there is about premoving. However it is sad to see many young players who have lousy endgames skills, just because they are so used to just run around meaningless moves to timewin. That is all that matters.... sad
really? 130 bullet games! You are even good
"And I never play bullet 1 0 either since all there is about premoving"
Um. 1730

Bullet is fun :) Even the world champion plays it! Players like Nakamura, Carlsen love bullet, and they have no problem with dirty flagging someone, so @BGW52 would you say they have lousy technique etc.?
I use premoves that I won on time with 0.02 sec!
