A Way to Combat FF Culture

Discussion

Hello. I was recently noticing on porofessor that it says I surrender. I don't surrender, haven't started or pressed surrender in over 3 years, I think surrendering isn't an option anymore. I believe it creates a bad mindset when you play this game. This made me realize in 20% of my games, my team surrenders on me.

To reduce the amount of people that surrender. I think a change should be made where you get locked out from queueing up again, I'd call it the surrender tax, the cost of waving the white flag and giving up. I'd make it a similar system to dodging. Where every game you surrender in the same day, your surrender tax timer goes up. First Surrender, 1 Hour Wait, Second Surrender Two Hour Wait, ETC. Eventually you may get to the point where Surrendering only happens when it's actually needed.

I'm not counting remakes or afk surrenders in this. Although I do think leaverbuster needs to go up in duration of how long someone is locked out of a game if they leave a match. Some surrenders are a result of someone leaving a match. This one I at least understand.

If we want to truly clean up this game, we need to do something about all the different types of players. My focus today was on surrenders. Playing a game out is part of the fun in this game. Have fun with it!
