Losing games because the site thinks Im afk

It has happened many times to me already: the game is just counted as lost because the site thinks i am away from keyboard. Why is that happening? I still have enough time on my clock. I dont get any notification that this might happen in a few seconds, I just lose on the spot.

Why is that? Why is there no notification?

Thank you for your response. I dont have any lag issues and this topic is not about lag issues, why did you post that second link?

The first link answers the question why I am timed out, but not why there is no notification that I am about to time out.
