player that leaves game, but doesn't resign

If a player stops playing, whether they have a substantial advantage, or can't win, they should resign. I had a player, (please no naming or shaming others on Chess.com)

who did that. I couldn't start another match, until this game timed out(12minutes). I sent a chat offering a draw and they didn't answer. If this player repeats , then they should be suspended for some time

Our fair play policy warns against this type of behavior.  If a player habitually stalls, disconnects, or aborts games their account is restricted.  There is more information here:
