Exactly. A guy complains about "rude" opponents and doesn't have manners toward the opposite sex. I wonder how you can possibly have proper respect for the game if you can't help thinking about mating acts with the opposite sex. You could not possibly be taking the game seriously enough. Chess should be interesting enough that you don't have such thoughts when you're playing or thinking about the game. What I find even more bizarre is that a guy would post things like that on chess.com of all places!!!! You're thinking about sex and logging on to a web site about chess to talk about sex? What happened to the cognitive compartmentalisation that is characteristic of males? Chess and sex are supposed to be two different things. How can you possibly get them mixed up?

I don't have to have a desire for political correctness to see something wrong with such behaviour. Chess is for nerds and this is not the behaviour or attitude of a nerd.

Sorry to the ladies ........... I'm just trying to reason with another guy.

LOL

Have you clicked on any of the threads, professor? It was just some friendly clickbait. I do not agree that chess is for nerds either lol. Everyone can play chess, even the dirty bartender from next door. Saying chess is for nerds achieves exactly this prejudice in society, that chess is only for those nerdy guys, the normal population that shaves and has a job shouldnt play it.

No, this is not rude. They have every right to use time on their clock. Resigning is just an option in the game of chess. I am not saying that they are right ( I myself get pissed when they just waste time instead of letting me play).

This is not rudeness. It is a part of chess, especially in blitz. If your opponent has some trick up his sleeves or some tactical idea then he can use it. And if you are in disadvantage(say lost a piece in mid game due to blunder,etc) then you can try to use tricks or go aggressive, because honestly if you are losing when playing normal moves then why not try to go aggressive and win?

So live with it.

you mean letting you win dont you. are you afraid to play to the end . some players are better in the endgame and could use a tactic or two to steal the win even like todays puzzle.

Your being ruder then them, they think you are not a good enough player to beat them... Fair enough.

Why be childish? Why waste your and their time? Show them you can win without acting like a spoilt rich 10 year old. Just...Win. If you can, great! If not, well then they were right- you were not good enough to fully beat them.

True and trust me, they feel a lot more insulted when we do that.

This is a puerile and jejune question; I don't want to disrespect anyone unless they provoke me, but I will offer one answer. Sometimes I'll be a piece down in a dead lost position and keep playing because I am so disposed and it suits my mood, and my opponent will find a way to F up his game so that I win, and yes, the reverse scenario has also happened.

"This is considered rude behaviour as they signal you that they do not trust your ability to convert the advantage."

Oh really! And who wrote down this golden rule!

To me the OP appears to be a rude person who in his conceit thinks that he will never lose in a winning position.

As a matter fact fighting to the bitter end is called "fighting spirit". Put another way, it's not over till the fat lady sings.

Yea sure guys, you can play on in as many dead lost positions as you want but be sure that when you do that against me I won't mate you any time soon. I will get all my pawns to the back rank and get as many knights and bishops as I can. Then I will trap your bare king in the corner and build some funny formation with my pieces and then, after I make you suffer for as long as theoretically possible, then I will mate you right before my time runs out.

Look I am not saying that I would definitely play in dead lost positions.(Had my fair share when I didn't know), but let's say that I am a pawn down or two or maybe even a piece and I find a tactic or trick, I will definitely try; If you defend, then kudos , otherwise I can retain or even get advantage depending on the pos. And again I am not trying to offend you, but some of the scenarios that you presented are not rude, just part of the game.

Some Internet advice: the best way is to just quit the game. Online, there are so many people to play with why even waste another extra second with some rude/offensive person? This is the online reality: no need to even lift a finger to salvage online friendship when you have 1000's of friends... and here we are talking about a non-friend even !

Scenario 1: If you didn't know, one of the purposes of the clock is to test how fast you and your opponent are. And there is always a chance that your opponent will trick you and you'll make a major blunder, even at 0.1 seconds before the end of your opponent's time. When you yell at your opponent "Resign!", you are actually the one who is rude, not them.

Scenario 2: Maybe your opponent is just curious how you'll checkmate them, or maybe they are hoping for a stalemate or you'll make a major blunder. Some of my much stronger opponents were about to win the game, but they end in a draw or even lose, because they made a major blunder. Fighting till the last breath is a good characteristic, and if you are getting angry because your opponent refuses to resign whenever you want, you are disrespectful, not them. Again: When you yell at your opponent "Resign!", you are actually the one who is rude, not them.

Scenario 3: Maybe your opponent just wants to play with you, or they are impressed how you beat them, and they want to learn from you. Offering a rematch after you beat them is a form of respect, not rudeness. And you should be honoured, not offended.

The scenarios that you described are not rude behaviors at all. Actually, your post tells much about you, not only as a chess player, but you as a person. It tells that you are very easily offended by everything and you have a problem with your ego. Please don't get offended, I don't want to be rude to you, I am just telling the truth. The truth hurts, I know. Deal with it.

Scenario 1: Your opponent has few seconds on the clock and still tries to play on (to trick you)

Solution: Sacrifice as much of your material, perferably with check, before winning the game on time. Perfect would be if you only had a few pawns and your king left when he runs out of time.

Scenario 2: Your opponent is completely lost but refuses to surrender and keeps on playing.

Solution A): Take all his material until only his king is left. Then promote your remaining pawns to knights or bishops. Then move your pieces all to the back row and take your time before checkmating him.

Solution B): Spam question marks in the chat or type something like "hmm tough position, I am only up 2 pieces and a pawn". One move before mating him you can ask "hmm what to play here, its so tough". Then before you do the mating move offer him a draw and quickly mate him before he can accept it. Be careful to not fail this hehe.

Solution C): Play on until he is one move away from mate, then let your time run down to 1 second and mate him. While letting your time run down you can read a book for example or make yourself some coffee. You can suggest the same to your opponent in chat.

Solution D): Surrender yourself and type "gg well played" in chat. Go offline immediately after that.

Scenario 3: You beat your opponent in at least 2 games and he still offers you a rematch.

Solution A): Play normal chess again, win and get your free rating points. After the game type in chat "ggs thanks for free rating".

Solution B): Start the game with a disrespectful opening like 1.h4 or 1.f3 and beat him after that. If you fail to win using this opening ragequit and play Uno instead.

I have drawn about 3 or 4 games where the opponent has had mate in 1 and foolishly offered a draw. I honestly don't understand that tactic.
