There's no priority in such as when I start typing I can't stop pause play nd go back typing test of text. If I stop and go back to page of game when I take my move nd go back to page where we post texts emoji ect... What I started to typed previously disappeared so I need to re start typing what I did before again so before u open it, try to think how it will sound

Am not asking anyone to not expelled me if my time run out. But what I hate it's that u go on my case about it u not here to do so if u are impatient when my time run out just expelled me but there's no need on commenting about it or such

Think about it this way:
You take your move, then it's your opponent's turn.
You wait, and wait, and wait, until ten minutes have passed.
Your opponent apologizes, because he had to go do something.
He takes his turn, then you take your turn.
Then, he has to go do something again.
This time, he takes a full hour.
How would you like this event to happen?

It's one thing to take a long time over all your moves as you are a thoughtful/cautious player: quite another if you are doing other things while playing and making your opponents sit around frustrated because you don't want to waste YOUR time 'just' staring at your screen.

I suggest if you need to multitask that much, you stick to turn-based play.
Exactly - I don’t mind people thinking and I can accept the odd emergency due to a baby/cat/person at the door.

But in some real time games there is a player who always takes at least 30 seconds to move even when there is only one possible move. They are clearly watching some other window or tv programme and not watching the game. Over a whole game this might waste 5-10 minutes so their bad attention has cost me the chance to play another whole game!!
