play unrated
my "abort button has disappeared!

actually abort button should be removed.
everyone should have the spirit to play against any rating even hundreds of points higher

Have you been making use of the abort option often? If so, that could result in removal of the option for a period of time.

in my academy , i just won against 1708 fide rated player
Is 1708 considered high? If so, then maybe I should buy myself a plaque to celebrate my victories over 1700 level players!
lol but i am not that high to be able to defeat 1700s easily, so for me its a high rated(i am 1284 rated)
Can anybody help please, my abort button has disappeared and I am being forced to play random players with random ratings!
