[quote=DuffTime]I think leavers should simply get double Elo loss penalties. If you have to leave part way through the match then you shouldn't have Q'd up eh? And if it's an emergency then it happens, tough luck bub. 4 people still probably lose.[/quote]

[quote=Fox Rage]Still, the 4 person who lost because of the leaver lose a lot ELO. Losing 24 ELO cause of a leaver is really frutrating, since you tell yourself you'll have to win at least 2 games to get back that 24 ELO. That's why I believe the victims should lose only half the ELO they would have lost normally[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]@Fox Rage, again, people in ranked could abuse that. I realize you put an extra penalty on the leaver himslf to prevent that, but imagine this situation. You're down a ton of kills and lost an inhibitor. You have a really bad score. Asshole 1: PMFG feeder nub cost me the game again Asshole 2: just leave game noob You: But...but...I'm sowi I tried my best :c Asshole 2: LEAVE NOW FUCKER I DONT WANT LOSE ELO Asshole 1: YAH LEAVE NOW OR ALL REPORT Asshole 3: /ALL PMFG ALL REPORT THIS NOOB! Basically what I'm saying is it incentivizes people to flame players with bad scores even more and try to get them to leave so that they lose less Elo. Don't tell me people wouldn't do it, cause I know they would. :P Duff's sounds okay though.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]Yah it's only plausible to penalize the leaver. The others, unfortunately, are screwed. Another option (Don't know how realistic, just thinking out loud) is to publicize a maximum amount of leaves per week and give warnings accordingly. Personally I would say 2 leaves max a week or you get warned. I hate leavers. (Thankfully there aren't many at my Elo anymore) Then maybe 2-3 warnings per month and temporary ban. Too many temp bans, perma ban. Just a thought on how to more actively deal with the leaver situation. Clearly the leaver buster doesn't take care of all of them :P[/quote]

But oh well, we're not here to cry about my fate. I do find your idea realistic. @ Luther : I see your point. People would rage at you until you leave the game. That's why someone created the only weapon capable of taking down a troll. /ignore. There is no other way to win an internet-bitching-fight with a troll :([/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]Realistic or achievable perhaps. :) Plausible. :3[/quote]
