Sometime I get bored with one day matches because:


I'd be a little careful about offering draws when you are so far ahead in material. It could easily be interpreted as sandbagging. Challenge yourself to win as quickly as possible instead.
It is frustrating I agree. but I also take the view that my opponent is entitled to play to the bitter end despite the foregone conclusion. Some regard it as unsportmans like but I think this is mean. Younger players will sometimes do this. Both my kids are on chess.com, they are 8 and 11. It is the sort of thing they might do.
I wouldn´t reward poor sportsmanship with draw offers. Just keep making strong moves and don´t stress if it takes a little longer to get your win.

yeah, people never seem to resign until checkmate...

I don't get the idea where is someone resigns it more sportsmanlike...
Can you guys explain to me how it is?
I like checkmating someone over them resigning.
If you have an overwhelming advantage you should be able to win quicker.

1. End game practice is very important. At least you should work to force a draw
2. Many times an opponent blunder can turn the game around, and players who are low rated, tired, overconfident, or smug are much more prone to blunder.

Well do you like playing 50+ moves to grind a winning position when your opponent could simply resign, which basically says "Hey, I respect your chess skills and trust you can win. So why don't I resign and we can both play a new game quicker?"

Once you reach higher ratings, people resign much faster. Like a lot of 2000+ rated players will immediately resign if they blunder a knight on move 10. That's because they respect their opponents so much that they know that it's already game over at that point.
So use this as motivation to get better! Once you hit a higher rating, people will respect you more and resign faster once you reach a clearly winning position.

Chess competition is a sport. Bite your teeth together and quit being such a pathetic whinny baby. Nerves of iron and a heart of steel: Ad Victoriam!
No, you're not cute.”
Hi Ripley: I’m grateful for your truly insightful comments’.

"2000+ rated players will immediately resign if they blunder a knight on move 10. That's because they respect their opponents so much"
"Hey, I respect your chess skills and trust you can win. So why don't I resign and we can both play a new game quicker?"
Reading this thread, some people think say resigning is out of respect.
So if you happen to play 2500 player after move 2 or 5 why dont you just resign out of respect?
You know they will win, so why grid it out? Just play the next game.
"Well do you like playing 50+ moves to grind a winning position when your opponent could simply resign."
Well if you have to play 50+ moves I definitely don't think you have enough of an advantage to justify a resignation.
In tournaments there is no difference in winning by checkmate or resignation.
Players have the right to play. Even to move 100 or more.
Just enjoy being in a winning position,.

You don't get it. Playing in an equal position is different than playing in a lost position with no counterplay. To "prove" you can win is to get a big advantage and convert it into something tangible, like material. And when the opponent has enough material up to win easily then there isn't really a point in continuing.

I DISAGREE A LOT.
Many games I win by time.
Many games I win by FIGHT until the end.
If I have no chance, I make CEREAL and OTHER FOOD.
If I have no chance, I use the restroom.
If I have no chance, I WALK around the house.
Chess is not skill, but physicology. Who else agree?

so if you have no chance you just simply waste time? Or am I reading it wrong?
