he told me that I win on time only !! I like cowers !!?
I enjoy playing to the bitter end, even if I am losing, timing out on someone deliberately in that manner... Yes zlatna is a coward!
To my knowledge I have never resigned, if you have nothing to lose it is fun to make things as difficult as possible for an opponent.
At least you got the points which means as I understand it, tactically you would have won anyway!
was it blitz game?
Even if it was a blitz game, the manner that it was deliberately done, I think was just plain nasty. If it's the sort of thing he does all the time it will backfire because nobody will play him!
You cant be childish about losing. Just my thoughts anyway.

No, you misunderstand me. Making it hard for someone to beat you is not being childish, as long as you play and play hard even if you know the chips are down, then everyone learns something. Making evasive moves could save your skin in another game, so why not practice?
It's the never resigning part. If someone is down substantially, say King and a couple pawns against check-mating pieces, he's not learning anything by continuing until the bitter end, and it's not even possible for him to play "hard". He's just thumbing his nose at the person who's already effectively beaten him.
So the person with the most pieces that have any power should be able to finish off our King and two pawns rival, yes?
It could even end up a draw, you should always play on in my opinion?
They could have just got lucky and be really rubbish at end game moves!
It's never over until it's over!
the lower rated the less likely to see a resign
Yep. Particularly if they're fairly new to the game.
What! So now you want to knock people for not giving up?
Glad the fate of the world isn't your hands guys!

A chess game has nothing to do with the fate of the world. Not playing to the end in a lost position is simply a matter of courtesy to your opponent by not being a jerk and wasting his time.
