5 Common Rude Behavioral Tendencies By Users.

Sigh... I see I'll have to code and demonstrate my idea on my Lichess instance for anyone to understand it.
So a permanent draw offer valid until cancellation.
Why not a permanent draw rejection valid until own draw offer?
That is more in line with over the board etiquette.
True, however OTB people use nonverbal cues to indicate willingness to accept a draw offer; and even when declining an offer can make clear whether they might consider it again or not.
I wrote this for you. Not for me. In case I wasn't clear on that.
I just played someone not even 100 points above me in an UNRATED game. He ending up offering a draw, even though he had the better game on the black side of a Ruy Exchange (and -0.8 Stockfish eval), and after the game he sends me the following message:

"You know it and I know it. Consider it a courtesy that I am not reporting you." [and he blocked me]

All I can say is "LOL, you moron."
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if the numbers next to people's names inflate their egos.
Chesspain, your right I don't get what the other guy was up to, but your response is funny. It got me laughing out loud.

Mruknowwho, your listed behaviors are either not that bad or there's simple solutions.

First, don't play anonymously. From many posts I gather that's where the rude crowd hangs out.

Now the list:
1. Don't you just get the win then? If not, yes that's aggravating, report them. I do wait a little because disconnections do happen.
2. Turn off chat as soon as that starts.
3. I've done that, and there's some reason for it. I think if you resign you don't get the buttons or the typing field. So, you have to type it in just before you end it.
4. No take backs.
5. Um, that seems kind of juvenile, just leave the conversation.
I usually say "gg" when the opponent loses all chances to win. Is it rude too? Should I stop doing this?

I guess there's differences in how individuals react. I've had that happen to me, (#28) and it just seems like a benign way to say: nice try, but it looks like your cooked.
