"Match was too short" abuse

[Seth]

Please note they call for "temporary" bans. I think you may be misunderstanding if you think it's unreasonable. What if, say, a disconnect before turn 4 made you get banned for 15 minutes, in addition to losing the rating? This discourages people from early-quitting on T2 or T3 because they won't save any time, and if your connection is spotty you should probably wait a couple minutes for it to clear up anyway. It is a good sort of system that has been implemented in other games and is effective.

That said, I'd still like to point to the second half of my post where I said it would be a much better idea to give the rating to the winning player in these cases

I agree with OP. Fire Snake is OP!

A 5 min restriction should do it. It's not a bad idea

I think there should be a ban if there is too many quits early within a certain time-range. Lets say someone plays 15 games within half an hour, and quits all of them before round 4. That should be at least an hour ban.

Should be escalatin.

1 st game 1 min
2 nd game 3 min
3 rd game 5... 10...15 etc.

Within like a 1 hour period

Alternatively I have also suggested in the past that the "Match was too short" situation be restricted to only T1. That would solve a lot as well, imo.

This is due to people being able to abuse system though. Gain gold/xp by just playing 1 turn and quitting

So don't give gold/xp but do give rating?

Hmm how about we just wait for new rating system

I mean, it's not like they're going to change anything based on this thread. This is like the 50 billionth thread on the topic, lol

It should be like the iPhone lock out setting. Leave a game? 1min ban. 5 min. 15 min. 30 min. Etc.


If you have problems with connectivity on your mobile network you shouldn't be wasting anyone's time by trying to play.
