Pout-Quitters: Idea For Dealing w/Them

I could get on board with 1 thru 3, and don’t care about 6. But 4 and 5 are just insane.

Assuming that for #3 you are also including the CPU padded stats from after the opponent quit, then #3-5 are some of the worst suggestions I have ever seen brought to the attention of members of this forum.
This is an overly complicated and unnecessary solution to something which barely even qualifies as an issue. The only legitimate complaint regarding opponents quitting mid-game is when it's mid-homerun, which could be even more easily solved by SDS not linking online stats to something like prestige cards, or by them making the stat count the instant contact is made since the game knows what is going to happen.
Plus, with how random the outcome is at times in The Show, it's way better for you when the opponent just throws in the towel. Chances are they would have clawed their way back and made it interesting on some BS anyway.

Letting you continue against CPU ok. All stats after quit, counts as online stats.
Madden used to have something like this when your opponent quit. Gave you the option to continue against CPU. -

If I'm outmatched I will quit. You get the win and it saves you time and I get to match with someone that I have a chance of beating.
Really dont need to change anything...
Exactly. If I'm getting beat by a far superior player, why continue. Some say keep playing to get better. Im sure that if I keep playing I won't better, I get worse because Im frustrated, so I quit. No need to continue.

-
Opponent quits while losing.
-
Remaining player given option to take the win immediately or continue playing, with a note that they will not be hit with a loss no matter what.
-
If play continues, the CPU takes over for the pouter - all stats will count.
-
The CPU will pitch fastballs in the strike zone for the remainder of the game.
-
The CPU will not swing under any circumstances.
-
The pouting player will be hit with a Loss and a Quit. For example, a record of 25 wins, 20 losses will show as 25-20(18) if said player threw 18 tantrums.
LMAO you're sad

Idiotic idea from an idiotic orioles fan.
I wouldn't say that he is an idiotic Orioles fan, but the idea is idiotic

Serious question: why are people so worried about stats for 'made up' players that won't matter when the new game drops or have NO bearing on actual physical things?
Just like how some are concerned about a W/L record, that has no real world meaning, in a video game that resets EVERY year.

what is the point of playing if you don't relish in your own accomplishments?

To have fun? Don't get me wrong; I used to be one of them. I worried that my RS record wasn't good. I worried that my batting average was only 'x' and that my ERA was 'x'.
But one day I just thought to myself that those 'accomplishments' have no bearing on what happens to me in my real life. Once I realized that I started remembering why I play this game. To relax and rewind after a hard day.

I get what you mean. I sometimes look at my record, average, and ERA. It makes me depressed, so I have stopped looking at them.

I'm not knocking hiw you play. But some people take it to seriously. That's the main reason SDS got rid of being able to see someone's record in this forum. People were calling others out based on the W/Ls.
