Good/Bad sportsmanship

@TheRupster12_XBL That’s why I suggested first offense within a 24 hour period is a warning. That accounts for the random disconnect. I can’t remember the last time I disconnected more than one time in a 24 hour period over the last 2 years.

Sorry, but I don't share your optimism. Most people wouldn't take the time to rate either way. Those who do would feature a far larger population of malcontents whose self-declared mission is to cause other people trouble. These are the same malcontents whose conduct in online games is the source of the expressed need for this "solution."
What is most likely to happen is that folks who play honest are going to get undeserved negative ratings from the same abusive players who wanted to make the game miserable in the first place. It's like allowing players in real sports to officiate themselves. It doesn't work.

@PriorFir4383355_XBL what if you could only upvote , no downvotes . High upvotes get better matchups .
️ just brainstorming . -
I don't think bans for dashboards is a good thing, there is no way to tell if it's a dashboard or a disconnect (blatantly obvious,but still no way to definitively prove)
I used to live in an apartment building and 5 doors down the most inconsiderate neighbors who would constantly plug too much stuff in and overload the breakers and knock out power to the entire floor -
@Teak2112_MLBTS The bunt dancing should be simple enough to where if they show bunt they would have to commit to bunting.

️ just brainstorming .That would be an improved option certainly. It would prevent trolls from doing what they enjoy doing -- hurting people. Yes, that option would not allow them to act out.

Dashboarders should get time outs. How hard is it to let a play finish and then quit?

I dashboard when people have terrible connections. I mean how hard is it to know that anything less than a fiber optic connection or playing on wi-fi without a wire is gonna make your connection lag

For every one person that would give you a good review there will be 100 who would give you a bad review even if it’s unwarranted. That’s just how modern humans behave.
As far as the quit/dashboard debate….I don’t really care. As long as I get the win, That’s all that matters. It doesn’t really matter to me if they have decorum or rage lol

unless you had to earn the right to be in the system with good track record of playing unlike a donkey. or like buddy said above, only up votes, no down votes.

I think we are on to something here. Don't give the players the right to thumbs up thumbs down. Keep your normal RS rating session. Incorporate a system that grades you as you play. Quitting/Dashboarding you don't get points. playing a game and winning/losing based on innings, run rule. The players get say 10 points or whatever. You make online a tier. So sure, you can play RS games name on casual if you're below a certain point threshold. Everyone can play events because that's the lowest tier of online gaming for the show. you have to have and maintain X amount of call them "Good Will" points to play BR, and more for Ranked Seasons." Leave it up to the individual player to sink or swim. Unfortunately, disconnects do happen, so you have a little grace. You also don't leave it up to other players who want to troll or be dbags. You want the best cards don't Dashboard/Quit. Or you buy them with stubs you make.
