    Op, it's not a bad idea. But you have some excellent players that disagree with you because they don't care about quality game play and just want to get to WS asap. You also have some terrible players who quit all the time and they also don't like your idea because it will affect them. I could be wrong but it's just my take.

    Your probably not complaining about quitters who quit down 7 or more runs. Your probably complaining about the chumps who quit down a couple runs and yes, it's poor sportsmanship and I wouldn't mind seeing a stiffer penalty for those players.

    But it's probably hard for them to implement and they probably won't do it. But again, I wouldn't mind seeing something implemented for excessive quits/disconnects.

    Why? Games take upwards of 45 minutes, if someone doesn’t want to stick around and get their teeth kicked in for 45 minutes why do you people care so much if they quit?

    They've implemented something for getting your teeth kicked in, it's called the mercy rule. I'm talking about guys who quit down 1,2, or 3 runs. I don't want to play 5 innings then have someone quit when I hit a home run and score first. That means I have to enter another game and I may not have another 45 minutes to spare. That's my beef with quitters.

    I mean you got the win and now have time to get ready for whatever it is only gave you 45 minutes to play, seems like a win win situation to me

    You are missing the easy solution which would stop most people from quitting mid game. Stop winning. If you want to go 9 innings so badly, just suck for those 9 innings and then try to make a come back. Problem solved.

    Otherwise, stop the whining because you people sound ridiculous.

    What a terrible, dumb idea. If someone quits, just take your points and play another game. You only benefit from people quitting, there is no downside.

    I personally don't see the point in punishing people for quitting. The player base gets smaller day after day after the release and if you start giving someone 3 hour bans or any kind of ban, while they are banned they will find something else to play. Business wise, not a smart move for them to implement that. As far as people quitting, I don't understand why anyone gets so upset over a person quitting in a video game. Who cares, you got the win and got your points. I would hope something like this NEVER comes about

    Wow!!!!! I really do love it when any of my post gets so much feed back being either negative or positive. It shows what I may choose to post, critique or suggest within it will entice others to comment back, being good or bad. Isn't that the entire point of a forum? Some times the majority will agree with the post & sometimes they wont. in this case the majority did not agree with it. My bad, but you guys got to admit it got a lot of you talking. LMAO

    Nah this is dumb, who cares if people quit? There aren’t missions anymore that get effected by someone quitting. Also, sometimes quitting can be strategic as it saves your bullpen stamina, same on the other side as well, I’d rather someone quit so my bullpen stamina get reset and I don’t have to use it.

    1. I don't want to play against someone who doesn't want to play me. Let them quit.
    2. The big payoff to winning through forfeiture is that my bullpen gets completely rested. I am constantly rotating pitchers in my BP to get have 3 lefties with full stamina and four righties with full stamina. A recharged BP and a few points towards the next online tier are all the rewards I need.

    What about down 7 with 2 innings to go. To win that may require some strategy and patience. But if you don’t have the time cuz maybe you have a date why torture yourself

    I agree with the dumb idea side.

    You may as well just take the entire quit option away. Agree with let them take the L, get RS points deducted and move on

    So what you want is that these people that have already conceded that they will lose the match, they should instead prolong the game by letting you score a 10 run lead in order to get the mercy to kick in? What a fantastic solution lol.
