I wasn't sure whether I should post this here or under "General Chess Discussion" but, in your opinion, what is the most disrespectful thjing your opponent can do in a live match? Personally, I think it's spamming the draw button when they are completely lost. What do you think?

#2 I don't think it's really that disrespectful, since they're just putting themselves in a worse position

SuperMario3D2008
Constantly asking for a rematch and draw until they are the one in favour but not accepting any other draws
CheckmatedRock

i think it is trash-talking online or irl it sucks

I think trash-talking amongst friends is okay when both do it but yes, online and irl if its only one person is trash behavior

Insults in the chat

it also annoys me when opponent
Asks for take back in a rated game and then repeat it after it's being rejected
Complain about how I use my time

Probably resigning before you get to play a tactic. I almost got to play a smothered mate once but they resigned once they saw it. It's not necessarily a bad thing to do but it sort of makes you a poor sport and it's quite frustrating. That's the most disrespectful thing you can do in a game imo.

Outside of the game I think it's probably sending laughing faces or mocking comments after the opponent blunders something, which happens annoyingly often.

This. I always get so hyped up when I see a neat tactic and it's so annoying when my opponent resigns

Under promoting pawns to reset the board to the starting position is pretty disrespectful imo

When the opponent insults you while stalling and when you are about to checkmate, it is VERY disrespectful. At least resign!
