BUG: server automatically resigns games that were supposed to abort

Sort:

I have aborted games before, so instead of giving me the option to abort, it gives me the option to resign.

That normally wouldn't be a problem, however, if I'm Black in a game, and my opponent doesn't move, the server for some reason resigns the game instead of aborting it.

Note: I reloaded the page, and it said I "resigned". My opponent did not make a single move, and I have the "confirm resign" option on, so I didn't accidentally click the resign button or anything.

This has happened to my sister's account as well before.

I lost 37 rating points because of this (high glicko) :/

If you abort to many games, you are placed in a pool with other quitters.  And the only option you have is Resign.

Yes, I know that already (mentioned in the OP)

But I didn't press the option to abort the game. My opponent wasn't moving, so I reloaded the page, and it said I resigned.

Reloading the page is taken as resigning.

Yes it is. I just tried it now, i was black and my opponent made a move, i reloaded page, took like 2 seconds, soon as it was done said game aborted. now if u've aborted so much that u dont have the option, if u reload instead of it just aborting u will automatically lose.
