Is it common to quit after you loose your queen?

I'm a beginner with a low rating and I play players 50+ in rating max. What I notice is that 40-50% of the time if I eat the opponent's queen they just resign, it startles me as I managed to win games also loosing the queen. Is it necessary to resign if you are in an obviously loosing position according to chess etiquette? I never resign, as at my level it happens quite often that game ends in a stalemate (actually sometimes it happens to me too, when I'm in an obviously winning position). Experienced thoughts are welcome

Its fairly common, mostly because unless your opponent significantly blunders you will not come back from that mistake.  That being said in fast time controls without increment (1+0, 3+0, etc) it may be a good idea to attempt to flag your opponent (win on time).

Regarding etiquette, its completely fine to play on should you choose.  At higher levels people often resign at lost positions such as "down a queen" as well as known endgames as no one wants to play out 30 moves off a lost position before inevitable checkmate.

It mostly just results from the tilt/rage players feel when they blunder their queen. No one likes it when they let their queen get taken for free. And most would just resign after yelling "F@#k THIS! I'M OUT!" even when they still have a chance to win out of pure anger.

Increment is the bonus time you get per move. Flagging the opponent is when the opponent loses.

It's possible to make more than one mistake in a game, by either side.  Never resign imo.

if there isn't compensation for the queen (2 rooks, 3 minor pieces, rook and 3 pawns etc) then i'll resign after losing queen

Low-rated players can often come back to win after losing the queen for free or for a minor piece. The reason is because when low-rated players play other low-rated players, pieces are getting hanged all over the place. High-rated players will always be able to win if they are up a queen for free or for a minor piece.

Low rated players usually resign once they lose their queen.

I cam across a daily player once, trying to do 4 move checkmate but I put my knight out and they blundered their queen. Then they resigned.

Could be helpful to explain that flagging the opponent is when the opponent loses because he runs out of time.

You should say usually rather than always.

Close. FIDE 2275 I think.

don't resign if your in the lower elo levels because they can still blunder the game since winning the game is the hardest part.

You are not forced to resign when you are in a worse position even If you are getting checkmated with lonely king. But if you know your opponent has enough time to win eithout stalemate, you can resign to save both your and your opponent's time. No one can force you to resign. Losing a queen feels very bad and sad and makes a lot of players resign at the moment. But in the endgames, sometimes you can make stalemate traps... forexample If your opponent promotes, moves a pawn, etc then makes it stalemate. But remember at least don't resign until a fe moves if you blundered a piece. Sometimes your opponent misses their chances from the happiness of win material.

Oh No, My queen!

If it's loose, you mightn't lose it, unless you lose it loose to lou at the loos.

You shouldn't loose your Queen too early in the game, it increases the chances that you will lose your Queen.

Obviously if you sac your queen for a minor piece and you have a dangerous mating attack,then do it.but i am talking about simply blundering your queen
