trap their king in a corner so they can only shuffle back and forth. then cue up a bunch of conditional moves - the more the better. (don't forget to move a pawn every 50 moves.) then you will find out if they truly never resign. heck, they may even learn how to do it after this.

Conditional moves are a bad idea though, as they are played immediately. Much better to wait until the end of the timeout each time!

I have no problem with this. The way I see it, if I'm winning a game and my opponent won't resign, I have a pleasing, optimistic and future-facing picture to look at every time I log in, whereas he just has a picture of his imminent defeat. If it was left to me, I wouldn't let any of my defeated opponents resign, whereas my own resignations would take place in nanoseconds, with a nanosecond superadded to inform my opponent that it was a "gg lol".
