frustrated about opponents quitting

I am not getting any better. But I ALWAYS finish the game. Very tiered of people quitting as soon as they loose their queen, even early in the game.

You must be new to chess.

A win is a win.

Resigning is good etiquette, its what you should do if your dead lost, otherwise you’d just be wasting your opponents time.

You finishing the game always is rude, and wasting your opponents time.

I never resign because my opponent may stalemate or I may make a comeback. It has happened many times. I don’t think it’s wasting their time. I don’t think it’s rude either.

I have picked up many random checkmates from playing on when down in material. As long as you have a rook at least, keep fighting on!

I completely waste my opponents time….actually…this game is a complete waste of time…if I wasn’t stuck on night shift sitting on the toilet I wouldn’t even be on this crap….be a adult. If you get hung up on the etiquette of a board game…you have emotional problems brother….

Sometimes I want my opponent to play out the game, as it will give me some real practice in endgame scenarios and finding the correct move, or ultimately finding checkmate combinations. However, I am aware most people aren't going to do this as they don't see the point in wasting their time in an obviously losing position

It's good to resign when your position is well and truly hopeless. If I'm dead lost in an endgame I'll at least try to see if my opponent might accidentally stalemate, but that's about it.

There’s been many times when I straight up lose the opening but i make a comeback and end up winning

My pawn structure, ruined. Massive material deficit. Losing tempos like the Titanic losing buoyancy. My King awaiting the fate of Edward II. 7 minutes left on the clock. Shall I resign? Why, of course not. Fine art cannot be rushed. Plenty of time to Da Vinci another blunder or two.

Er the amount of times I've gotten people to blunder in lost games is impressive

No it's not if you blunder your opponents are just as likely to blunder back

Only acception is maybe the endgames that's q vs k(no pawns) but depends on time but if your in that position you might as well play it out anyways it's fun for some people to convert
