Losers Who Refuse Undos

I disabled takebacks in rated games. It was the best thing I have ever done on Lichess! It prevented me lots of disputes. Also players are a lot nicer when they cannot request a takeback than when I decline a takeback.
Even in over the board tournaments most of the games (at least in low rated sections) are decided by blunders. There are no takebacks there. I also train the touch move rule on Lichess. If I click on a piece, I must move with it. I hope the developers implement such an option where I can force this rule on myself in the settings.
I disabled takebacks in all my games to save myself from people asking for them.
Tangelo, the touch move rule on Lichess would be very great but so many players will cry if this is etablished.
I grant takebacks in casual games because the game is for training purposes. My opponents usually refuse my request though. However, I don't play many casual games so this is not an important issue.
OnlySleeping, I asked a feature in settings. That means that I impose the rule on myself only. Same idea as the existing blindfold feature. I have never intended to force it on my opponents.
It is great that disabling takebacks feature has been recently added. I really enjoy this feature!
After the 3rd undo or takeback, it seem to me that AI just play a lousy move so that I could win the game. Why don't the Developer or Moderator programmed AI to give a nasty remark like "you can have the game, DUMMY. LOL only. bye friends
