perma ban SC afk'rs

[ReBiff]

im sooo tired of joining SCs to have 3 people afk without ever leaving spawn, nothing makes me log out faster. just permaban people that do this it ruins the game and makes noone want to que SCs when these people do.

sounds like the /surrender feature needs a buff lmao

read the ToS, public name shaming is against rule.
take screenshot evidence and report it.
intentional throw more than 3 times could be enough i think.

and if you solo queue, you're solo, literally.
sometimes you get perfect 2/2/2 soloers who know their role.
sometimes it's all drunken noobs.
get a grp if you can't handle solo consequences.

OP is one of those people who refuse to press yes on surrender when they're behind 58 to 440, I bet.

I redacted my original post to remove names/guild name, though I disagree, if someone is ruining the game for others intentionally, they deserve to be called out and it is brought onto themselves when done so. I believe the don't call people out part is for insults and "bullying". Not for this scenario. And to say you should expect players to afk in the SC the whole match for 5 matches in a row and to legit end with 0 healing, damage, and protection at the end of these scenarios is just delusional, I can only assume this was a feigned attempt at devils advocate. Other wise why is it not the same in ranked, any other game mode, the intention is still just to greif your team while still getting free rewards for nothing at the cost of hurting your fellow playerbase. Again, trying to defend this behavior is just low and delusional lol.

I agree somewhat with OP, but there are times when life happens and you can't help it. Maybe you're, I don't know, a dad in their early 40s and you thought you could sneak a quick scenario in while your kid are quietly playing/coloring in the other room. Lo and behold, as soon as you hit accept, they begin arguing over which crayon they could use or someone got too close to the other and it escalated to pushing.

Now do you hop off the keybaord, take the quitter debuff and go be a dad, or ignore your kids so you can pew pew more internet elves and orcs?

Not that I would know anything about that...

Well, i would know sth about that, and it happens to be just like that with a few month old toddler in the house
...just exchange the "crayon incident" with "was sleeping a minute ago and now is crying down the house".

And i definitely opt for being a dad in these moments.

naming was exactly this scenario. just read tos.
i'm not defending such behavior.
i'd reported such behavior few years ago and it was dealt with, i think. they don't tell u result.
do you think this post change anything? no, there's appeal system and it works.
take screenshot of scoreboard and himself being there at the end. leaving SC at start shows 0 score too.
chat time stamped. not 1 SC, as many as possible. hard to prove intentions.

once i sent tell of warning. and those smart a** did build some score and went afk.
in that case vid recording is only answer. though i didn't go that far. not worth effort.

anyway, i was in there SC with u and him. joined later when most were afk.
premade vs solo pug without guard/heal.
**** happens. that's solo queue.

Just permaban people that do this...

I disagree. As I recall the moon was once a point of temporary exile for players who broke a rule not worthy of a full account ban. Perhaps that can be reinstated and applied for minor infractions which fall under the category of annoying behavior.
