Losing time when network cuts off

> The problem is that lichess gives time penalties for that. If your opponent chose rapid, then he has to play rapid, that means that there is a possibility that he would have to wait 10 minutes for his opponent to make a move.

Yeah, but these 10 minutes would be taken from your opponent's time.

No, lichess actually makes the time go faster if you disconnect.

No, if you disconnect for a set amount of time, your opponent has the option to ‘claim victory’.
