player repeats the same checking moves

Hi! I'm new to chess, and currently playing a game with another online player who has been repeating the same checking move (with Queen) 5 times in a row, while we both still have many other pieces on the board... it's a bit annoying but I dunno what to do with this. I'm slightly up in points (+2) at the moment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

claim a draw and the game will end. it's called perpetual check

you are also not allowed to discuss ongoing games in the forum.

1. Never ask for a hint regarding a running game

2. Always take advantage of the opponents move, if you are not able doing this you should neither play chess, nor should you bother other people to help you out of your hole

Welcome! I can't give you advice on how to proceed with a specific game. But perpetual check is a way of acquiring a draw. Even if your opponent were in a losing position, if they can keep checking you indefinitely then it is a draw. Draws are merely the result of a game that will never end (or that both opponents feel is reaching that conclusion).
