Probably because the game was automatically aborted.
aborting games
Sort:
Gee thanks, that really clears things up. Why was it automatically aborted. Doesn't one of the players have to abort the game?

you're welcome.
The question is a bit to vague to me to give a more specific reaction.
Was it a live game on chess.com?
Did your opponent stay online or not? (perhaps he disconnected?)
Did it abort before any move was played?
What is the difference between when a player aborts a game and when the game is automatically aborted? I have no reason to think the player has gone offline. The games are live games on chess.com.

Hahaha I actually laughed out loud at this response! :D
And then: "Gee thanks, that really clears things up."
You guys are classic!
And sorry Joesparov I cannot help you with your question.
it means a player has you blocked, so any games you play aginst that player(s) is auto aborted
No, it means that your opponent took too long to take their first move.
