When that happens, you can report your opponent for unsportsmanlike behavior.
If someone gets reported often enough, they get a poor sportsmanship penalty.

I used to but I gave up. Why should 20 million people make 5 reports a day when Chess.com could write a simple allogorythm (percentage of disconects after blunder > 50 percent = ban). They can can do it; They choose not to. Why?
who cares if people quit after a blunr?

lolololololol. This is exactly what I'm talking about it.
You're supposed to resign, not quit. That's common chess etiquitte. Supposedly it's Chess.com's rules, but they don't seem to care, so do whatever you want.
If chess.com banned all the quitters, those quitters can’t watch ads. Less people watching ads means they can’t charge as much to advertisers. It also means fewer opportunities to convert free users to paid users. Gotta follow the money. There’s not much monetary incentive to ban people who quit games early. This is what happens when a company with 1 billion dollar valuation becomes greedy and values profits over people.

You should start a thread about that. Then people can comment "People are dying in wars right now, get out of here with that." which will make a lot of sense.

The post is about quitting (abandoning) as opposed to resigning.

But they could automate it. It would be easy. They don't. Like someone above said. They want the ad revenue more than enforcing their rules.
I was under the impression it was against the rules of Chess.com. Is it not? I know there are some cases when people truly get disconnected but it is incredibly simple to detect people who get dicontected 99 percent of the time after a blunder. Why bother pretending it's against the rules when you don't seem to care?
