That's a big minority.
This is why I never resign unless I have to leave a game

@snudoo the thing is though, had I resigned, it never would happen. It would have a zero percent chance. That chance itself only exists due to people feeling arrogant enough to be offended by me not resigning and hence playing sub optimal moves.
Some may argue that 20 minutes of life time are worth more than a 0.01% chance of winning 7 extra points on chess.com.

@jenium some might argue they're worth more than a 100% chance of winning 7 points on chess.com... But the reality is people are on this site because they enjoy playing chess. As I've said, whether I'm in a good place balanced position or an unbalanced, I enjoy the game. In a game I enjoy playing I'm not throwing in the towel on the very slight off chance my opponent will feel offence if I don't... As I've said, if I'm such a bad losing position, my opponent should be able to easily mate me. No harm no foul.

@why-does-we-exist that's pretty rude to say. My opponent is, like me, only human. Meaning the chance of a blunder is always there. It isn't disrespect for me holding out for a blunder or an opportunity, it's the nature of the game.

just saying, i would never expected a 1600 to make a blunder as inexcusable as that. to be honest, i would've resigned on move 11, expecting my opponent would easily win
Those that insist the opponent resign.
