Is this legit?

@annyoakly I think the situation folks have in mind is a game where one player is so disgusted that they dump the game before it starts... if they do it before anybody makes a move, no one gets a loss.

@annyoakly Thank you! They are playing that way to avoid another loss. It was my sister lol We quit playing and she is the only one I played because I knew she agreed not to use word generators. I like a fair game with no cheats.

The person that dumps the game scores a loss, don't they? They are lowering their win/loss score, as it should be.
Unfortunately this does not happen!
You may be interested to read a recent discussion about this in a thread in 'Feature Requests', entitled 'Rate deduction'.

@annyoakly if you delete the game before the opponent moves, it does not affect scoring. Same way if I start a game with you and you never move it automatically drops off and doesn't change either of our scores.

@lolamoth Deleting is one thing - shouldn't change your score and as far as I can tell, it's only available before a player plays (or before the second move). After that, one can only resign, which does affect rating.
Also, I seem to recall that the rating change isn't instantaneous. So perhaps that could explain why there was a change? -
