I understand that it can be disrespectful in higher levels of chess and such, but seriously, in my low level of chess, there isn't a need to. Do you think Rommel "resigned" when he was outnumbered? Do you think the Australians "resigned" when they "might of" lost? Do you think the British "resigned" when things didn't look so good? No. And I don't understand resignation at my level. I have done it myself, but I vow to always fight on and NEVER resign.
While i do agree that resigning at your level isn't advisable. But it is someones right. Now as for comparing a game of online chess to Rommel? Their is no comparison.
This is chess.com. We do not deal in facts. Please respect our ways.

Rommel resigned at the end when he shot himself.
When Hitler told him either he gets killed by firing squad and his family has to pay reparations or kill himself. I would not call that resigned, maybe a “sacrifice”.
No, not resigning would have been to go after his new enemy, Hitler.
