Don’t ever resign. Try to make a plan before the game or after the first 3 moves. Don’t forget defences and openings. Don’t spend small time to make your moves. Try to make a custom game with enough time for you to think about your moves and what could be a better move than the one you thought of earlier. NEVER EVER Tell your opponent in the chat “Please lose for me” because that’s just making the opponent feel small and that never works. You shouldn't play like that in chess because you won't really learn anything. Just accept what you have and who your opponent is, worse of better

This don't-ever-resign-attitude is so stupid. Don't immediately resign if you are somewhat worse, yes, but there is no point in playing on if you are down a queen and a piece against an opponent of equal strength. These people who don't know when to resign are so annoying.
