or having an opponent who takes so long to do there turn
What's the most annoying thing in chess?
Sort:
When people let threir time run out when they are losing.
Tilting. The Elo points matter more than a win or lose. Like they are bragging rights. Losing points is worse than hanging mate. What a blow to the ego.
I think it's when you almost win a game but make it a stalemate because of mouse slip

when ur opponent is losing, and then instead of resigning, waits for his time to run out.
I find it annoying when I finally get an advantage and my opponent resignes. I've heard other people say they prefer it that way, but I enjoy checkmating.

When chess.com has defects that make it look like it’s your opponents turn… then they run out of time and it says that you lost because you ran out of time. Or when you press new game and it rematches you with the same person. Or when you report clitches and defects, but the reporting system itself has defects
When you have to leave in the middle of a game that you know you would've won
definitely accidentally moving via mouse slip / fat finger, its always the queen too😭
Having an enemy who Instantly uses the Bishop of queen to go to the left or right side of the middle of the board i think that's a cheap move
