When I think it is hopeless and continuing is pointless I will message my team saying that "we're done". If they don't respond then Ill play on for a couple minutes so they to see it is really lost. Ill then tell them again, and tell that I will surrender, and so I do.
If they then complain I sometimes explain we are really lost and continuing is pointless. Or I just go. I never abort mission as it is annoying for the opponent to clean up my base.
I will normallly say "gg" and surrender. Sometimes people will accuse you of "cowardice" over this. It's not a real war! It's just a computer game; and so "cowardice" doesn't really exist in this context. People throwing these accusations are just jerks.
I understand your point about people that just disconnect, but it's not that big a deal imo, because you can just disconnect yourself knowing that the game is won. If one person disconnects, then probably the rest of that team will soon follow so it's game won anyway. You probably don't need to clean everything up.
