Why Abandoned when I quit browser and immediately relaunched???

There is a bug in chess.com. Sometimes the sound stops working, and the only fix is to quit and restart Safari. I was just in a game and it was the opponents move and the sound wasn't working so I quit Safari and I immediately re-launched it. I was away from the game no more than five seconds but when I came back it showed that it was abandoned.

Why?

You have technical bugs with your site and you need to sometimes quit and restart your browser as a result. And if somebody quits and immediately rejoined the game, that game should not be made abandon especially if they do so when it's the opponents turn.

That is grossly unfair.

There is some issue with Safari at the present time. Apple screwed something up in the websockets connection.
