Just noticed i cant abort a game once e paired with a much less rated player who will add little or nothing to my rating. Thus i am forced to play n in d past if i don’t make a move for some seconds, it auto aborts d game.
His shouldn’t be

Yes. Abort is not supposed to be used to pick opponents and if you use it too much, it gets removed and all you can do is resign. That hurts your rating a lot more than beating a lower rated player.

You might want to read this help topic:

It will tell you how you can choose settings which will help you avoid low rated players.
