Why do you get a matchmaking ban for leaving a game AFTER YOU HAVE FORFEIT?

If you quit before the last replay is over, you get a ban - just like if you abandoned the match. Except you didn't, the game is over.

There is no reason to penalize someone for leaving once the game is over.

You can leave during the final goal replay, as in when the clock hits 0:00 or score the overtime goal.

You cannot leave during a forfeit replay. You should be able to in order to make the behavior consistent, but it's just not coded that way.

The game isn't out to get you. The game doesn't have the intention of being stupid. It's simply an oversight.

I'm not mad I got banned, I just think it's stupid that this gets you banned.

Hmm, they just changed it in the most recent update, after it being that way forever.

I wonder if they saw this post.

Yes, I know it says you will get banned when you select to exit, but I've seen lots of people leaving during the final replay, so I thought the text was a coding mistake. Either way, I'm not mad I got banned, I just think it's stupid that this gets you banned.
