A way to help prevent match leavers! - Punish those who leave during the match.

[Restavega]

We all hate when someone leaves the match and your stuck rather then going to the winner's screen and have to rehost (not to mention getting screwed out of a win). Or when you accept a rematch but your teammate left during the process and you end up fighting a 2 on 1... literally!

People who leave games should not just get one loss added to their score because that's not even with the benefit of the opponent getting the win at times. The disappearing opponet should get up to three losses!!! If not, more!

There is no excuse for leaving a game. If you can't spare 2 minutes to end a game you should really loosen up your schedule or don't play to begin with.

Actually ive been in situations were ive been in many tourney games etc and my interent has just gone whack the actual blue yonder service also when my dad comes in a rage turns off pc when im playing.

But over all yes people that leave games the WRONG way are just losers as tehy care about there score.

How about their score being reset back to 0?

Hmmm a tad extreme cause there times ive had 2 leave a game when im winning for genuine reasons...

I think you should be able to set it in your game(server) Just like you can turn on timer or turn it off. You should be able to turn on conquences (More lost of score than actually losing) and the joiner can see it so, if they know the lag a lot than they can leave the game before it starts.

Do you get what I'm saying?

Oh and I know there is sometimes a genuine reason for you leaving sometimes, but if you join a game with the conquences on and something happens to your comp. Then tough. It's not like ppl should really care about rank so much.

well i've had to leave countless matches because of things i had to do right at that moment, and sometimes by accident, dont ask why it was an accident though,but u have a good point whoever leaves matches on purpose should be punished, maybe he or she should be banned from the game for a few days, or set there score back a hundred thousand, or maybe even put them to a rank so beyond our comprehension, that we have not seen yet, like i remember this one time mcbeth had his rank to like 212454524545, but anyway to top it all of people who leave matches on purpose alone should be severly(is that how u spell it? ??? :D ) punished

Elena, that is a perfect idea! People who host should definitly set it to their bidding and if you don't like it, find another server.

I know it can happen... you have to shut down the game or something goes wrong.. it can happen to all ofus. But once won't kill you! If it happens a thousand times to you, fix your comp or don't play the game. Stuff like that is bound to happen so deal with it.

We can't control leaving the game at times but whether or not it happens constantly is up to you!

nice way to put it

Hey Restavega we cool right :laugh:

[MSI]

[Restavega]
