Bad losers

(Apologies for my english)

How can we avoid that people who, when they advertise that the game is lost, spin out time until the end of the match? It is so nasty!
Playing with increment helps.
Please report every single one of them, don't let it slide. We take this offense very seriously and players leaving games without resigning can get banned.

I had no clue that people can get banned for leaving without resigning. How many times do they have to do that before they are banned? just wondering because I thought about reporting a player before but realized they could have a bad connection. Guess I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt even though they robbed me of the sweet nectar we call checkmate.
It happens to me maybe 1 in 100 games.

That being said; I dont often play classical; and I'd imagine this is a real problem here.

I feel like in any chess mode there should be a 'time per move'
Somehow based on a percentage of your total time.

So..like if your playing a 10minute game maybe 25% is the time control. So every 2 minutes you must at least make 1 move. Or; you lose.
IDK something like that.
