Oops, is that a breach of etiquette? I do it to simplify things

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?

Pooping on the board would rank high as a disrespectful thing to do, I imagine

That's some imagination you got there.

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.
Hmm interesting....in my experience it's very common for people to resign when they see they are about to be checkmated.

No the disrespect comes from continuing to play K vs 6 pawns. Of course I'm going to get 6 kngihts lol
I remember having some fun with one of the bots one time because well, bots don't resign. Only chance I can probably get to get so many promotions...
Disconnecting instead of resigning.
Ye
scholar mate
if you think its clever its time to look for a new game

complaining in the forums that you play on
this is not frowned upon in real life, i guess you all just dont like converting the game
they have no compulsion to resign, by saying that the only thing youre saying is "iDk hOw tO cOnVeRt wInNiNg pOsItIoNs, i oNlY kNoW tRaP"
thank you for translating. i understood not a single word of that

Back in the early 80s there was one clown from Boston University who would read comic books during his team match games.

He was an Expert level player, so he usually did fairly well. The whole comic book thing was probably just a gimmick to get on his opponent's nerves. Unsportsmanlike behavior. No doubt, if he's still alive, he's trolling on line somewhere.

With 10 minutes on their clock and its mate in 1 for them, they lose by time. Another disrespectful thing is too is if you have 5 pawns vs king, and you promote all pawns then checkmate

I'm mildly freaked out by how there seems to be some sort of etiquette around promoting too many pawns or taking pieces when winning.
I often do it just to visually simplify things. I would rather just take their pieces then wend my way around a bunch of pawns to checkmate my opponent.
Same with queening pawns. I'm not going to intentionally make fun of my opponent but I'm also not going to pass up an extra queen because those are useful.
