Deliberately bad software or bad design is not software gore, it must be something unintentional

I was recently less than amused, when I first waited for a response for 8 minutes, and then an agent asked something, required immediate answer and ended the chat in 30 seconds

I've had a bot end the session while both I and the service agent were typing, and it was only 30 seconds since the last message.

This happened 3 times in a row before I learnt to pre-type all my answers in a text document and copy-paste them to keep the bot happy.
