Probably everybody did experience an opponent who was so "frustrated" that (s)he did not move in an obvious totaly lost position therefore you have to wait for a long (when you play bullet ) period (20s or more). This is quite annoying and with a chess.com staff who are known for saving the cabbage and the goat, this problem already exists from the beginning. My suggestion is to punish these offenders as i.e. bullet is a quick game with quick decisions made during the whole game. Deciding to spoil the victory of your opp is your responsibility and should be punished by losing some extra elo. A engine can calc quickly if e.g. the score was -20 or more for black and white did not resign but took 23 s before being out of time so white will be receive a penalty of e.g. 8 elo's and black receives those. Wonder if white next time leaves his clock running or resigns as fair play expects. Maybe did not explain perfectly but think its clear enough to comment.

There is already a system in place to do that- the sportsmanship policy.
