People most likely don't wanna resign is because the other player/bot will win.

ONLY COWARDS RESIGN

The best reason to not resign is the fact that half of all chess players are below average. There is a very good chance the non resigning player will go on to draw, or even win the game. The resigning player, however, will lose 100% of the games he resigns.

When you're in the 500 range like me, we're all below average.

To get practise in the endgame, why else?

even if your losing you can still learn from it

Avatar of Tobstar123

it's really only past 2400 that you should resign in a dead losing position

maybe a bit before that but still

Not even Levy (GothamChess) resigns in a losing position

id say if you really want to, you can start resigning at around 1900 because people then typically know how to convert

Bro he is a chess YouTuber plus he can sac the queen and the rook so technically the most valuable pieces why are you asking me this if I clearly said I watch him? I know Gotham chess he beat mittens with the help with stock fish and even played with chatgpt itself.

Simply because quitting can be reported and anything can happen until checkmate we are not GMs, are we?
