Opinion on when it is OK to resign in a game

[diagonalo]

Hello I played a game today in which against commonplace rules where champ cav (and naked fanatics) are banned there were no rules.

It turns out Saidrdz with Persia who is one of the best players with this build was going for champ cav. In the first fight we managed to capture the cc of the first player but then we got sorrounded and our army died. This was a terrible fight for us and my pop was very low and while I wasn't quite 0 pop I knew my eco was weak and would likely die in the next 2 minutes. So I decided to resign.

What would you have done in my position ? Keep in mind Saidrdz is still spamming champ cav and also I wasn't aware of whether we were winning but in when I watched the replay after it seemed to me the enemy still had potential with Saidrdz and Daky playing cavalry. Next thing you know you get banned.

I don't really mind the ban which I think is ok if you resigned too early. Anyway the following are not really on that topic but for context.
