Time added by opponent rise warning to be banned

I understand OP here. Suppose they signed up to play a 3+0 game. they are down to 15 seconds and blundered because of time trouble. And now they chose to let the 15 seconds run out instead of resign. This should be ok.

But if the opponent keeps giving them 3-4 minutes to force them to resign instead of letting the 15 seconds run out. I dont think OP should be penalized for letting the extra time run out. The opponent is clearly being an Ahole and doesnt deserve the resign gesture.

It's not a player's job to decide if their opponent is ragesitting or thinking and trying to play the game. The assumption should always be to assume the best about an opponent, and if they choose to add more time, it's with the assumption the opponent is trying to find the right move. If the opponent doesn't want to play any more, they should resign.

I disagree. If an opponent starts giving you time right after you made a clear blunder and you are short on time. its not the opponent being magnanimous. Its them being a **** because they want to milk the most out of this situation. When I was lower rated, I faced this kind of "bullying" a lot. I say bullying, because usually it was also accompanied by some "tasteful" chat by the opponent that gave time.

I standby what I said earlier. If OP chose to let the last 10 seconds run out but weren't able to because their opponent suddenly gave them more time in a completely lost position (for them) then OP is justified in letting that entire added time run out without resigning. If you dont agree with this, you agree with bullying.

Have you ever had someone add 20 minutes to a bullet game? If they do that I'll go and do something else and they can wait.

Mind you I have takeback and extra time switched off so it's not a problem anymore.

This isn't how conversation, let alone public conversation, let alone internet forum chat, works.
