MY OPPONENT HAS A KING AND KNIGHT BUT WIN AGAINST MY KING AND THREE PAWNS.
IF MY OPPONENT HAS NO WAY OF WINNING HOW IS THIS A DRAW?
Is this the game?
lichess.org/ZIT9I0MR/blackWhile it's true the opponent couldn't checkmate your king they can still end the game in a draw (which is their best bet). The only way to win in chess is a checkmate or your opponent resigning.
Not that it matters, you lost on time.
NO, THIS IS NOT A DRAW. YOU LOST ON TIME. MATE IS POSSIBLE. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
CM Sarg0n....LET ME REMIND YOU THAT THE BLACK PAWNS CAN NOT GO BACKWARDS
OKAY... IS THIS EXAMPLE BETTER?
OF COURSE YOUR OPPONENT CAN STILL WIN

OK! I WILL STOP TYPING IN ALL CaPS!
The FIDE rule is simple: If your time runs out, you lose. There's one exception to this rule, that is, if no checkmate is possible, the game is declared a draw.
It's possible to construct a checkmate from your final position (it doesn't matter how improbable it might be), so the exception to the rule does not apply. And that means you lost, you lost on time.

Can't tell if you are trolling or not, but he's playing from White's perspective.
Lichess uses FIDE rules, if any checkmate is possible(even a helpmate) when you run out of time, you lose.
