I understand because I often resign too soon but I'd say at 500 definitely play on if you can - even if you're down a rook or Queen I'd say make them prove they can win from that situation. Maybe they will maybe they won't. At 500 rating you won't be the only one making blunders - if you hold on I bet a lot of games they will blunder right back and suddenly your position won't seem so lost any more. I have a friend around 800 rating and he never resigns and he gets so many draws by stalemate. Essentially a player resigning is saying "this game is now hopeless for me, I have lost" - but that depends not just on the position but on the time left and also on the opposition - if you're down a piece against a grandmaster then yes the game probably is over - if you're down a piece against a 1000 elo player then it might not be over, them winning from that advantage is not certain or even close to certain
Resigning After a Bad Move (Very Low ELO)
Endgame training is one of the most important parts of chess.
It's ok to resign if you are so upset with your mistake that it will tilt you if you continue playing. Play on if you can keep your calm, otherwise there's no shame in throwing in a towel. There'll be plenty of learnable opportunities in your next game.
I have a different problem down at 100 elo, when at or very near 100 elo my opponents almost always afk(auto resign) after a few moves, and once elo is about 110, It's now the real opponent who would play the entire game, except those seems pretty strong that I should be rated about 20 elo, So I'm stuck between losing quite a lot and winning at 100 elo exclusively from opponents auto resign, pretty much I have no legitimate win out of endgame or checkmate because opponents found is between those 2 with no in between.
So I went to the chess website org just under this website and learn the fundamentals beyond the rules and conditions of chess, now to the point of common checkmate patterns and trying to play correctly to do knight and bishop mate, seems like even near 100 elo besides afk and sandbaggers(intentionally quit or can't handle pressure after a few moves at 100 elo) beats me because of fundamentals and not leave a lot of hangs, most likely because I tend to wing it in the exam makes me make move in rapid without thinking everything(slow thinker) so I guess I should just play more classical game along with learning beginner things
Play the bots (at least 500 points higher than your rating), develop center control. Look at the entire board.
i usually resign when i'm down more than 2-3 points, never mind a queen

Some players prefer to play on after blunders as it provides an opportunity to practice resourcefulness and resilience.
I'm new and don't play too often, so maybe take my advice on attitude more seriously than my specific chess comments. 
I keep playing until it's truly hopeless. It feels great to come back from a blunder, and the lower your ELO, the more possible it is. I try to hunker down and get my pieces protecting each other as well as I possibly can, then play as quickly as I can, hoping to get my opponent under time pressure. It doesn't always work (my opponents are on average as good as me, of course), but when it does, it's thrilling.
I really try to manage my attitude about losing, too. At my low ELO, it'll never be easier than it is today to rebuild it if I go on a losing streak. The point is to get better at chess, not to make the number go up. Losses can serve that goal as well as wins. Wins and ELO are only the evidence, which will happen naturally if I get better, so there's no point focusing on them specifically.
In other words, if you lose and you learn from it, you WILL gain back the ELO you lost and more.
I’ve heard that at low ELOs like mine, it’s better to play on anyway to see how the game would go because that’s the best way to learn. But I’ve got to a point now where I immediately see when I’ve made a blunder, and rather than waste my time trying to salvage my position, I’d rather just call it quits and take a break from Chess entirely. Otherwise I’ll lose my mind and get tilted in subsequent games.
Am I just being silly? Need a second opinion honestly.
