Why does this game withdraw points if a player gets disconnected from the server, although their connection is perfect? It takes a line of code to distinguish between leaving the game or closing the page and lack of connection to a server.

Unfair to withdraw points due to broken server
Agree. Many here would disconnect to avoid a loss. I play checkers. As soon as one of these childish players realize they're going to lose a game, they start taking the full minute before each move, just to be difficult.

Hello "bedoune", This is not meant to force players to pay. FlyOrDie simply counts any disconnection as a loss, because it is impossible to distinguish a real technical issue from a voluntary disconnection to avoid losing a game. This system has existed for a long time, whether you play for free or not. Have a good day on the site. catsgirls moderator assistant flyordie

i suppose flyordie doing this in order to oblige people to pay them ...before was not frequent is it gratis or not ?
Because that could easily be exploited. Players could intentionally force or simulate a connection loss whenever they're about to lose in order to avoid losing rating points. I know it sucks to occasionally lose points because of a genuine server or connection issue, but treating every disconnect as a loss is probably the only reliable way to prevent abuse.
