Chess etiquette

WTF is wrong with people on this site?

Between the abusive chat, refusal to resign and abandoned games, is this a site specifically for angry bitter people who think too highly of themselves?

I have more appendages than I have met players who are willing to say "gg" after the game.

A part of learning the game is learning the etiquette that goes along with it!!

We appreciate your efforts to bring a little decorum to the forum.

Well, I guess it’s the internet. Lots of people react like it’s a full moon and the hairy jerks are on the anonymous prowl. I haven’t played on other sites; are they better?

refusal to resign is bad? someone told me last time “come on just resign” - I find this rude...

It depends on the situation. If you can actually see a result and trying to achieve it, then keep playing. But trying to delay the inevitable out of spite is poor form.
