I have been on chess.com since March 2012. I mostly play daily chess with time control of 1 to 3 days. When I started I hovered around 1500, but over the years I have slowly declined and am now about 1265. Would I be better served to play live chess with 10 min or 15 min controls? I am usually playing in tournaments 10 – 15 games at a time. I generally play immediately and then wait the 2 or 3 days for my opponent to play. The decline has been frustrating.

I improve more when I play shorter periods of time, but not too short (!). So 10-15 minutes is perfect. Because you are really in the game and don’t interrupt the thought process.

Yes. On the correspondence type games, especially when playing multiple games, you forget what the plan was and often blunder. Especially when you rush the moves.
