Is there a way to unpause the game when your opponent pauses it for an extended period of time? I played a game where my opponent was clearly just being an 
, spray painted my base, etc and then paused the game for like 3 min. Is there a way to unpause it or set a timer?
You… Don’t know how to unpause the game…
Did you even try googling it? Or maybe pressing F10 and seeing there’s an unpause button?

Why google it?
Google is the thought-former of this day and age.
Why in the world would you suggest to “google” something? Google is not your friend…
No because I’m a nice person and if someone pauses I dont mind. But when they abuse it, its annoying.
Make me wonder if, in case both players mash the pause button in a childish war, the game would eventually lock the feature?
Should be on your keyboard, top right.
Yes, both players can pause and unpause own or opponent’s pause at any moment. The button is the same as button for pausing - “Pause/Break” on keyboard or corresponding option in F10 menu.
you only get two pauses a game, so it’s over pretty quickly when they spam it,

A common thing is spam pausing all 3 of them and leaving. 2,3? It’s a 33 percent difference.
In co-op you can spam pause all day long. People such as avilo are know for pausing then leaving the game without gging.
good lord you need help. it’s one more pause, SO MUCH MORE. 33% more pause ! rofl.
and you might wanna take a look at my profile to see if i actually play the game.

I don’t think there’s a time limit regarding each individual pause, however there’s a limit to how many times a player can pause a single game (and currently it’s 3). The opposing player (or an arbiter host) can however unpause anytime, by pressing the pause button (right above the page up/page down buttons on a conventional PC keyboard).
So if someone BM/rage-pauses (some raging players do that just to make the opponent lose time, it’s the Z/P equivalent of the Terran’s flying CC), you can unpause right away and passed the 3rd time your opponent will lose his ability to pause the game. 
Not sure either. Heck, it’ll be a terran that will answer, to show some of us are beyond his anti-terran crusade.

Yet you’re asking people here
So you didn’t try googling it because you’re “a nice person”, but you did ask the forums because… ???
If you think Google is going to brainwash you because you looked up how to pause a video game, I think you have much bigger problems to worry about than predatory corporate practices.
Are you for real?, how many games do you have 2 in total?, and 1181 posts?
There is a resume game button in the menu, you don’t have to wait, only if you want. OMG LMAO

Youve all been had by your friend, the OP.
when a game is paused, the notification that pops up on the screen literally says how to unpause it.
Can’t remember which year it was. 2013, 14 or maybe 15. But it was a few days where ladder was going crazy. At the start of the game you would select all your workers then amove them towards the opponent.
After a-moving, the player will pause the game. No one could unpause it either. It would end up the workers winning the game.
