What does the T stand for in rankings?

I’ve seen several players with a ranking like “11kT” or something similar. Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what it means?

T means (as you can see in the user profile) “has recently timed out in a correspondence game”

This flag protects this user’s rank from changing due to subsequent correspondence timeouts.

One more piece: to remove it, a user must complete a correspondence game that lasts more than 24 hours and does not end in timeout.
