Offering a draw to your opponent

Should you be able to offer a draw during your own move or your opponent's move? Before, you could offer a draw during your own move, but someone claimed that in tournaments it's the other way around, so it was changed in the game. At the moment, it seems like things have become more inconvenient. What are other people's opinions/comments?

Normally, I think you can offer a draw after your move. I would like it if that were the case.

Yes. That's how it is at the moment. Isn't it annoying?

This can be taken in two ways. If you have little time and your opponent is playing against your time and making extremely fast moves. Then you might not have time to press the draw button during your opponent's move. Then it would be good if you could press it during your move... Then you sacrifice your 2-3 seconds and you can offer the draw. The other point of view is that if there is a draw, then in order not to waste your time, it would be good to take that time from your opponent and make your draw offer. Take your pick which one is right. Maybe in tournaments it is customary to offer during your opponent's move. However, in this case I would rather offer during my move - but maybe it is just a habit. So no definite position on my part, just a few pros/cons.

I have a question about this? If you offer your opponent a draw during his move, does his opponent's time continue to run? It starts to bother him if someone offers him a draw during his every move. Eventually his time runs to zero. And as far as I know in blitz chess, it's 5 minutes. and you can't offer a draw for less time. Only from more than five minutes

At the moment, you can probably open a draw offer window during your opponent's move. If time is tight, your opponent will probably make a move, and then you have the opportunity to offer it from that window. That way, there shouldn't be any disruption to your opponent...especially if it's a fast match. You'll spend more time, you know, than your opponent pressing "no". But the fact is that when playing online, a draw offer must have some kind of time control. If there's still a situation where both players are convinced that it's going to be a draw, then they should have the opportunity to draw.

Hello, It seems that the current solution still allows you to interfere with your opponent too much - to offer a draw after each of your moves. I propose a solution that you cannot offer a draw again until your opponent has offered one. So that no one can offer a draw twice in a row. What could be the disadvantages of such a solution?

The downside is that if you offer a draw and your opponent immediately makes a move, today it is equivalent to refusing a draw. In short, if this were to be implemented, the current system would have to be changed so that making a move would not be equivalent to refusing a draw.

Making a move means refusing a draw. The bad thing right now is that this draw offer popup is in front of the game board, and when my opponent offers a draw, I often want to think about the situation beforehand, whether to accept the draw or not, or make a move, rather than bother removing that popup.

If there is enough time to analyze the situation, then changing the window should not take much time. However, if there is a tense game and fast moves and things, then you are often so involved in the game that you immediately understand whether you need to accept a draw or not. In addition to the above: if this window appeared somewhere to the side of the game board, then if you are very focused, you may not even notice that something is appearing somewhere to the side. This window must still appear immediately in a visible place, it must attract the player's attention.
