The one who, in a completely, clearly and unambiguously lost position will keep playing until you mate them, even though it's a 15|10 game and you have 8 minutes left on your clock.
The one who falls for an opening trap that he doesn't know, and gets utterly destroyed because of it, and accuses you of and reports you for "cheating".
The one who starts a 15|10 game and then complains if you take more than 20 seconds to think on a position.

Sorry but I'm gonna have to criticize you on No. 2

if you are about to lose, then play on because maybe your opponent could blunder or disconnect. aftrer all, you have nothing to lose.

so you're one of those annoying people, huh?

Effort shouldn't be annoying.

Nobody wants to waste their time by playing out a won game against someone who never resigns. At the lower levels, there is the possibility of a blunder, but at 1500+, or even 1200+, it's a waste of time

It's not. The reason it's not is called a swindle.

Correct, lol: I was once up a knight which is decisively winning at the upper levels against a 2000 after he made a mistake, but I blundered and he was able to convert into a win. Smart choice.

I just played a 5|5 game. During the endgame I offered a draw but my opponent refused. The endgame then continued and ended up being a KQ vs KP (me with the KQ), which I happen to have studied, so I knew the "algorithm" to win it. This can be a slightly tricky endgame if you don't know how to play it, so not resigning at this stage is fine. Your opponent's knowledge should be challenged, and I was actually happy that I got to practice the algorithm in practice.

The thing is, when I finally got my king to the pawn, and it became completely clear that I was going to mate in 2, my opponent just stopped moving and let his time run out, instead of resigning.

Reeks to me as being a bad loser. Might perhaps have had something to do with me being a 1302 in blitz and my opponent being a 1730.

Why?

Some want to face different opponents.

Some only have time for one game.

And as far as the original post, there are instances in Number 2 that I won't resign, and make you prove it, even though you are completely won. For example, KBN vs K.

I agree. Make me prove B+N checkmate

I played someone once who offered me a lot of draws after I was up 4 or something like that in material, also my opponent was 200-300 lower than me. So after every move I move my cursor over to the right and click "Decline Draw"

Someone did that to me, but it was blitz and I was moving too fast to notice... just move and ignore, turn off sounds if necessary, that's what I do

yea one time in the BCS tournament my sister was up a queen but accidently accepted the draw instead of declining it. after then, I told my sister to just make her move and don't even click on decline or anything

One draw offer after your lost is fine but if your opponent declined just play on or resign I usually offer draw offers in I missclick typically spamming draw offers is when it gets annoying

Also what do you mean opponents who don't resign are annoying it's fun to convert positions 😡 if anything's it's more annoying when your opponent gives up too early and resigns when there is counterplay still

The fact so many players find it annoying when opponents don't resign is another reason why you shouldn't resign - they may get frustrated and lose focus or think the game is already over. Resigning is always a game-losing Blunder.

Here's a good example of why you shouldn't resign lol I blundered my queen and my opponent blundered back

This would be losing in classical but tunnel vision effects everyone ... I was very sneaky with my bishop lol

Not resigning in a clearly lost position where you have no realistic hope of even making a draw is opportunistic.
