I feel like punishing people for dropping out of games they're getting spanked in or not having fun in is akin to the very reason Muse doesn't allow vote kick. It just sounds like a great way to turn more new people off.

However, maybe leaving TOO MANY games in rapid succession could net you a 5 minute cool down before you can join a new game? That sounds more reasonable.

Well, if you have to leave a game for something IRL, the only penalty that you will get is to wait till the game you left ended before you can join a new game. I think you'll hardly notice anything of that if you had to drop out of a game because of something in reallife...

And well, there's ALWAYS the button that  allows you to reconnects to the game you left? ;)

I don't rage quit, and I think it puts people in a bad mood to be losing and to see everyone leaving, thus encouraging them even more to leave. We shouldn't forget there is a Surrender button ( but if nobody communicates, I don't see how they will all agree to surrender ).

Maybe on of the reasons people ragequit is that quite often, I see tons of beginner matches, but when I play in a regular lobby, there are still some totally new people that join, and if the teams are not balanced to counter it, they end up in the losing team and it causes some ragequit.

There's a big difference between "understanding ragequitting" and "supporting ragequitting"

TimTim LaBaguette:
Yep, but what I wanted to say is that I'm not a fan of punishing people, I prefer trying to find more "peaceful" solutions.

It's not really a punishment tho is it? I mean, you either wait till the match you left has ended, or you reconnect to the match. What's punishing about that?

Swizy:
There's no real solution to that. But rather then "penalty" or "punish" people there could be a more encouraging solution to reward those who stay. I'm not sure how to do that but maybe something simple statistically showing the "recommandation" of others on your profile.
