Indeed. Why belay the point? I actually admire players who know when to "foldem", even when it sticks to their craw to lose to an equal or lower-rated player. Like someone posted, it speaks to your own self-respect, as well as towards your opponent. It wasn't your day today...deal with it...move on. Catch'em next time!
WHY PEOPLE RESIGN SO EASY

Really funny. Some argue about fast resigns, others about "why the hell doesn't he resign?!". ;)
exactly! point: internet chess players should only mind their own business :p

Absolutely this. Couldn't care less how anyone else plays this game or uses this website.

It is annoying if you resign what you consider a hopeless position only to have your opponent point out a saving move.

they kick you hardest when you are down its how stubborn you are in the blows you receive put another way fight till you are beat

One thing I cant stand is slow torture by my opponents. It's like biten by mosquitoes. itchy everywhere.

Resign lost endgames. With queens still on the board, anything can happen. So don't resign prematurely. Dropping pieces needlessly is another reason to resign. Do better next time. Very simple.

Marlieslannd honey ...... there is no something as bad POSITION .... ieven won games with only single pawn , bishop and king ...
For them it's quite obvious that their position is beyond their ability to equalize relative to their opponent's playing strength otherwise if the disadvantage is only minor they would have continued to play. In situations like these it is possible that you or your opponent might have miscalculated. It happens all the time, when you think that your position is hopeless but a higher rated or more experienced player would show you how to defend the position or it could be that you think that you can still continue to play but missed a mate in 3. In any case I think it's better to resign early rather than to continue playing when you know you're definitely losing.
