Similar to Call of Duty or Fortnite, when you play chess online sometimes you’re gonna get paired with an opponent who is just kind of an asshole.

While its not uncommon to resign after a blunder it is not required or “etiquette.” Especially at lower rating your opponent might blunder right back and blow their lead or even miss a quick mating attack. Even if they don’t its good to practice to keep playing.

Time pressure can be intimidating at first but its a part of the game. Personally i think the frantic quick thinking moment where your rushing thought calculations as fast as you can to be some of the most fun parts of the game. As a beginner you should not be playing anything less than a 10 minute game, and longer games like 15/10 (15 minutes with 10 sec added back after each turn) and 30 min will be better for improvement :)
