If you get a rating of 1800, will the lobby stop pairing you with players who abandon

I just had another player who abandoned the game immediately after losing his queen, he has played 1500 games here
The players who abandon on me have ratings under 1600 (as do I)
If I get a higher rating and face people with higher ratings, will the farcical abandons stop
I think the more experienced a player, the less likely they will:

1.) Blunder quickly enough to rage quit
2.) Exit a game without resigning

But it could still happen.
Age, intelligence, self respect or self importance as a chess player and respect for the game may correlate with rating. While not universal ofc i think these are the main factors that would explain that observation.
