I lost even though I didn't move?
Sort:
look at my most recent game, my opponent had bad connection so I didn't move, it went to auto abort but I still lost rating points? why
But nobody moved its supposed to be a draw

That isn't the way it works. If one of the players abandons the game, they lose. If there has been a certain percentage of abandoned games, then those losses are rated losses.
According to the game information, you were marked as abandoned. The indicator of your opponent's disconnection was likely an error and your connection had dropped instead.

Hi just to confirm, let's say I play you, and your white pieces, and you don't move as in not even the opening for whatever reason and the game is abandoned...you will then lose points?
