Disconnecting mid game

I’m sure that this has been suggested many times, but I think that when you disconnect you shouldn’t lose as much elo as when you lose the game. I’m traveling right now, so my internet has not been the best and I’ve been losing games to the internet going down, and it is quite frustrating to lose elo this way, although my elo isn’t even all that high

NO one knows youre traveling.

No one know why you disconnected or got disconnected.

If something like that was implemented, people would just disconnect when losing and save some rating.

Every time someone was losing, they could just disconnect and save some elo points. The system has no way to tell whether the disconnect was automatic or manual. The rating system would be messed up.
