30 sec idol kick+idol penalty | Forums

[verifun]

This is a team game, and thanks to some in the community there has been a quit penalty imposed on everyone- regardless if you leave because one of your team is sitting idol. Since we can't abandon them as they sit there and let us be defeated(whilst laughing at the fact we can't simply go find a new game), I think they should be kicked after 30 seconds AND have an XP PENALTY to discourage not disconnecting. Look, you are playing or you're not; and the team most likely wants to win so take the penalty yourself and have a ten minute time out or there should be some punitive action since you inconvenienced the others. This was the justification for the quit penalty was it not-so it should apply here too.

Definitely not a bad suggestion verifun, I'll pass it on to the team. They are definitely looking at ways to improve idler detection.

Maybe 2 mins. 5 is way to long. The game is over by the time someone gets kicked from a dom game.

And I see people all the time just rolling, do that shot in not matches, not player.

If they booted players after 30 minutes of being idle they would be faced with a rush of people complaining about disconnecting games, since people leaving is what is triggering matches to crash.

i disagree with this. not because it's a bad idea but because as of 1 week ago, with everybody keeping they chat of, there's no way to communicate with du.b or stupid players and tell the what the problem is or coordinate. so I usually sit idle so they can get as frustrated as me when I'm looking because no player is around (I would have gotten if they did something but no player kill no point contested etc...) or that when you fight some one just comes along "trying to help" but actually gets you killed or hits you. idle is right now the only way to communicate with players
