Please, Remove Profle's Leave Count
Spud Nick:
Has anybody left a match because the captain/other captain had a high leave count?
Van Manfred:
Arrggh it happened again. Sorry for my team mates of fortunes. We were doing extremely well when I started disconnecting then reconnecting like crazy, being completely useless on the ship all the while, from the middle of the game up until its shady end (I couldn't even see the score). I also failed to reconnect short of leaving Steam, and now as a result I've got another Leave, for an average of about 1 leave per three games, now.
I look like a :-X ing rat now. "No, really, these are connection problems!". "Yeah, sure".
I think I'm going to stop playing for a while. I'm a bit peeved right now.

For what it's worth, I can't think of a SINGLE time I've run into a captain or crew who actually checked a player's number of leaves.

For what it's worth it seems like the leave count is doing its job, even in your case.
It tells us either you rage quit, have a weird internet connection, get bored, or anything.
Does that really matter and is it fair to you? Yes and no. :/ If you were on my ship and you said that there was a 50/50 chance you randomly disconnect (even if you're making it back in most of the time) I'm definitely not going to want you as the main engi or on hull. In that sense the leave count has done its job, it just isn't necessarily fair to you as a gamer. I think overall it is more fair to the crew.
geggis:
That's a fair point treseri.
For the record, I didn't even know there was a leave counter and looking back there's been plenty of games I've left for various reasons from having to dash unexpectedly to captains and crew dicking about and not cooperating.

Thus allowing serial leavers to redeem themselves by playing 100 games without abandoning their comrades.

This seems like a pretty solid idea to me.
