Chess
What is sportsmanship?

Sportsmanship is something where you are having the right attitude when playing chess. You play fine and it turns out as a good game. But some people don’t have sportsmanship some ways of not have sportsmanship is by aborting a game on purpose because you got the black pieces. This is something that happens a lot to some people because they think if they abort a game they know in a couple of aborts they are gonna get white. But lichess have system where if abort a lot of times in a row you will be temporarily banned. And also it isn’t fun for the person who got white somebody aborts with black and next game the person who got white gets black which annoying. Another reason is even if someone has white the person they are playing is higher rated than then so they abort. So don’t abort even if you get black cause you never know what happens in chess
