Letting time run out instead of resigning will result in a temporary ban.

@odoaker2015 Anand example is correct. To see that it is sufficient to read carefully the description:

  1. ...
  2. ...
  3. ... it happens that quite simple move takes ... about 2 minutes. And SOMETIMES time is up.
  4. ...

And the topic is not about what is the right thing for me. It is about uncertain warning in the case:

long* thinking on move && time is up**

*) Above one minute. This is clearly the Anand case.
**) this is quite frequent case in blitz games.

""In your game history, you have several games where you have left the game or just let the time run out instead of playing or resigning.
This can be very annoying for your opponents. If this behavior continues to happen, we may be forced to terminate your account.""

i have more than 65000 games here, i never let the time run, alwayes try to finish the games, of course that are some times when the page fails or internet fails, the game disconnect dont let me finish the game, and a lot of times, i was wining...

two days a go, i was about to win, just for the record.
