What is your experience with takebacks?

Cowperson up! (The two word answer to the simple question).

My apologies to the cowboys among you; but times have inevitably changed, and who am I to withstand the tide?
I mean in the case of the common Kf1 and the like it is very sporting to allow takeback than to play on with possibly an apparent advantage.

Not everyone thinks like that, but I think it's within acceptable limits.
I allowed my opponent 2 takebacks in my last game, there seemed no reason not to. He showed his gratitude by allowing time to run out in a lost position. There is a word for people like this - wanker.
