en passant is a rule in chess whereas not answering a draw offer is not a rule in chess... that comparison is just wrong
You completely missed my point. You should know how to use the interface when you're playing online chess. Simple as that.

I do not want to name the country....but citizen of a certain country are infamous for offering draw in a losing position ( not all of them)..I even remember Kasparov once said that about those nationalities doing so.

You sound like the racist who says "I am not racist, but....
Have the balls to name the country you are denigrating, and do so with facts. Your innuendo is both useless without a country name, and groundless without facts.

Lagomorph, there really are certain nations known for certain types of cheating in OTB events. Bulgaria was sanctioned by FIDE not too long ago for running a series of fake tournaments to help players get hyper-inflated ratings.
That doesn't mean all Bulgarians cheat but there are certain national chess organizations that have very poor reputations in that regard.
Sometimes I offer a draw if I'm about to beat on time a player that has a much better position and has played much better than me.

There are two deliberate tactics in continuous draw offers: 1. it may distract you or annoy you, and 2. you may accidentally hit the wrong button and accept the draw offer when you meant not to. I have done this twice and it has enraged me. People who spam draw offers deserve a special place in hell.

You talk too much,and lash out without knowing what are you against....
The country which I will not name...( if I do,there may be possible ground to be called racism,although only if it is not proved )..
The country,was first mentioned ,By Garry Kasparov..who spoke of his experience playing against players from that country....
what ever,bothers you...tell it to Kasparov...

To me it seems very rude to offer a draw when you're clearly losing. It's just a distraction and there really is no excuse for it.
Am I crazy?
No I don't think so. Here's a tip I watched from a vid. Take a piece and offer draw. If it is a timed game this will make your opponent think thus using time. Don't know if it works to often but I do think there is a psychological as aspect of chess.
Also that's exactly what some chess hustlers do sometimes so I've heard.

I first ask them how old they are...my insulted feeling ,feels better if I know ,the othe side is a kid...but unfortunatly they mostly are adults....As I keep asking them...if they believe the position is equal...?
they truely think nothing wrong with what they do....they say,it does n´t hurt to ask.

If you are clearly losing on the clock and the board you should not offer a draw.
As has been pointed out before, repeated draw offers without a significant change in the position are against the LAWS of OTB chess. They are unsporting and designed to disrupt the opponent’s thinking.
lol I am not complaining about draw offers with a seemingly even position. I am talking about people who are literally offering a draw and want you to double click so you can offer them one. In a otb game this never can happen as you can never accidentally offer a draw.
