i have no idea of websites that forfiet on dc, all of them that i know of allows a window to reconnect.

i really see no reason for them not to be able to reconnect if they are losing? their time still goes down in the dced window

Quick question:  When you are in the middle of a game and you open or look at a different tab in your browser does the chat alert the other player of a 'disconnection' or 'soandso left the chat'?  If so, I might be annoying a lot of people.  During a game I will often check out my opponents stats to see how many games they've played, and what not.

Continue to direct all of your displeasures to CHESS.COM. That is the key because this situation is now rampant and the people who know how to do it use it as a general practice in the repertoire. Chess.com is the answer (forfeit or last player standing WINS the game button.)
