I have found that i am playing against an opponent who does not make any move when in an inferior position, and loses his games by move timeout, and does not resign, while moving frquently in all is other games, although this is certainly within the rules, i would like to not ever play him again, is there a possibility to ban him from future games with me?

That could get tricky if you ever play in tourneys and stuff.

This would be a great post for the Site Ideas forum. Perhaps you should bring it up over there. It's a great idea.

I am not aware of any feature that does what you want. I'd suggest you either play with a faster time control and/or not playing this person again if possible. Let your clan leader know if needed. You may not be able to avoid him in tournament.

If you subscribe you can play more than 6 games and he will be a smaller thorn in your side.

If he tries to play you again delete the game in the first three moves.

But also it is true to say you can't win by resigning - so he has every right to mess you around within the time perimeters of the game.
