What do you feel about players that do perpetual checks when they are losing?

That's rain not magic. Dang kids... 

:D

There's no point to getting it anywhere further. Obviously, someone who found a perpetual is not "losing". The game is drawn.

the first rule of chess is to win... the second rule of chess is not to lose... if u think u are winning when your opponent has perp/check in the position... u don't really understand what it means to be winning. I don't care how much material u were up... yur not winning if they can stalemate or perp/check u! that is part of the game... if your opponent just lies down even though they had perp/check, then neither of you has learned how to be better and improving chess players... and u really haven't won... they just chose to quit.

Oh, god, I just had another one of these games.

This dude did the same moves about 40 times but for some reason it didn't grant him a cheap draw.  They should ammed the rules to where if you want to do the perpetual tactic you get docked a certain amount of minutes from time and dont allow a draw but if the idiot wants to perpetual let him lose on time. 

You are focusing on the wrong things buddy, read Dan Heismans articles (free on the internet via google) stop worrying about lag, perpetuals, "cheaters" and that stuff. Focus on learning something new and understanding the game better. You will always at most levels be susceptible for a perpetual check you somehow missed, but at least you will appreciate it once you mature in your chess understanding

Incredible game, on both sides.

 i was a move late in forking his queen and rook.  I think if i would have done that earlier there wouldn't have been the nonsense

If you don't like it, chances are that you are playing the wrong game.

pfren seems to cut through the rhetoric, getting right to the crux of the matter.

Theres no point in making a thread about the rules of the game like this, pfren spent too many words already in his statement

What I mean is that it is incredible that he had mate in 2 or 3 for about 50 moves after around move 30, and couldn't sew it up. And also incredible that you actually prefer sending your K off to be mated in 2 or 3, instead of going for the perpetual yourself by playing 25. Kg1.

Only natural if they dontbtake too much time=Looking at the board will not change the the board

It's actually the right thing to do. In any game other than chess, the losing player still has the right to fight back at anytime. It might be wasting time for you, but it's not for him/her. He/she was probably trying to draw by repetition or the 50-move rule, or maybe he/she was just trying to make you get bored and make a mistake. BTW, making your opponent make a mistake is not considered wrong and is part of the game tactics.

Troll harder.

Players who are capable of perpetual checks are not losing--they are drawing, and drawing is part of the game of chess.

Those who cry over perpetual checks are intellectual sloths who want to be gifted victories rather than to earn them.

Nothing more needs be said on this subject.

Oh, if not for the rules of the game . . .

Apparently, your opponent was not "losing."

There is no "winning" and "losing" in chess. There is only win, lose, or draw. 

+its part of chess not cheap. if you cant get your attack trough and your opponent breaks trough your deffence its your fault. i would say that your opponent did a good job in getting a pepetual because thats a good way to deffend a position where you realize that you are lost

Perpetual check is a legal part of chess tactics,

Lol, it's a pain in the leg but it's in no way cheating or against the rules lol.
