Too many handicap stones created

Since the last update I am having problems making correspondence challenges. I am not sure what’s going wrong but every time an opponent joins my challenge, I seem to get a lot of handicap stones even when they’re the same or similar rank. Obviously they won’t play me and cancel the game immediately. I can’t seem to find a way to disable this behavior. Please advise.

Thats because your correspondence rank is 9k, the handicap stones make sense when you look at your and your opponents correspondence ranks. A moderator can change it.

In the meantime I am sure you can disable handicaps in the settings (bottom right of make a challenge window) or define them specifically under custom game…
