Either you take the time to ask him to resign, or you use a smaller ammount of time to checkmate him without too many problems. Two queens vs lone king, you're hilarious.

@Thomas9400: When you have two Queens versus a bare King, why would you need to ask for a resignation? From virtually any position with that material configuration, mate is forced in about four moves.

It may not be against the rules but it sure would be a douchey thing to do. Besides, why would asking your opponent to resign make any difference? They obviously don't feel like doing so yet or else they would. Why would you asking them make any difference?

   I would add this...

   Anyone asking for a resignation is a weenie.

    It's like asking a co-worker: "Why don't you let me eat your sandwich?"

    It's like asking a girl on a date: "Would you mind if I use your lipstick?"

    It's like asking your neighbor: "You'll need to loan me your leaf blower today." (This one actually happened to me.)

   It's like reaching under the stall and saying: "Would you mind passing me your toilet paper?"

No. It's more like saying, "You are rude and inconsiderate. Didn't your mommy teach you manners? I would punch you if I could, you worthless excuse for a human."

No, it's like saying, "HAHAHAAHAHAHA!!!! YOU ALWAYS LOST TO ME!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I was dead lost in a game today, but offered my rook so that my opponent could stalemate me. He refused the rook and lost on time.

So what if they do? You must have the time to spare, otherwise you would not have agreed to the time control. So in the 5 minute they're taking for each move find something else to fill the time. Read a book, or some of the articles here on Chess.com. Watch a YouTube video. Buff the bishop. Whatever. You don't have to just sit there staring at the board waiting for your opponent to move.

Is it against chess.com rules to politely ask your opponent to please resign a game when they are clearly going to lose? I realize you can't force them, but can you nicely ask them?

If not, I would love to see a link to the rules stating this.

Isn't that what checkmate is for?

It won't be rude but asking for resignation won't be nice as people will disturb the games by asking to resign and ww'll be not able to concentrate sometimes opponent may win whom we ask to resign. so it is completely wrong to ask or even suggest anyone to resign.
