Wow, I guess so.
You've played thousands of games with nary a single timeout. Wow.
I would need a miracle from God Himself for that to happen to me. My record on a chess website is just not all that important to me, given the vast numbers of other, more important things in my life. I'm not exactly going to be losing any sleep over it.
2. Live in an isolated place, no family and few entertainments
3. Control freak
I suspect that #3 is the most significant, but the other two certainly help. But good luck to anyone who has more exciting things to do in their lives. 😀

Eh? Why? Last I heard, timeouts were wins. Why get your panties in a bunch over someone losing to you?
I suspect people who have played hundreds of games and yet have zero timeouts are probably people with no other interests in life and no other way to spend their time, i.e. no family or friends. They're also the people who agree to a game with a 7 day timeout and then pester you almost every day about moving.

I might have a touch of OCD but I just like to check
that things are right and proper. I have little
idiosyncrasies that people might say are odd
but hen that's just me.
Don't get me wrong though, If I was in a relationship,
which I am not , I would not be a control freak in that
area.
I only want to control certain aspects of my life.
I'm not looking to control any women. They can
go and do whatever they want. I would expect
loyalty but I wouldn't be ringing her up every
10 minutes to discover their location or plans.

Eh? Why? I think people are concerned about starting a game with someone, only for them to drag it out and then timeout. Hence the concern. I can't understand why anyone would turn around and say to someone, 'Why haven't you got any timeouts?' 'I'm not playing you!'. 😕

Why bother starting the game, if all you plan on doing is timing out? It is not only a waste of your time, but that of your opponent. Winning games by time out are not all that much fun for me anyways!
EXCEPTION: IF it is a clan game then it becomes A LOT OF FUN!!! 😉 😉
