The principle of chesshere server based on one server with 2 end user points.
We can control on the server but we can't control on the internet connection and the computer performance of the end users points.
Sometimes there are disconnections from the server that we can't control.
The Real Time chess engine uses Timestamp Technology, if yours or your opponent's connection is not optimum, you will see his clock goes back to the time he actually played his move. This is called LAG. It doesn't mean that your opponent gets extra time - it means that your opponent made the move in time and sent the move to the server with a delay (he is defiantly not getting extra time!!). Your opponent will deal with the same situation of clock goes back with your clock.
The end user connectivity to the internet has a great effect on the Lag during the game
In some situations of bad connectivity you can see your opponent clock comes to zero with no end game result. In this case it means that there is a Lag and you should wait until the real end of the game
Timestamp Technology is the state of the art technology to gives you the best Real Time experience with no losing of time
