The draw rule has been a constant source of controversy, bickering and a seemingly endless supply for heated arguments.
As the rule currently states, drawing or forfeiting a game before it is beyond any doubt, 100% certainly over can lead to penalties. This translates to no draw/ff unless there is a reason ( player has dced/left, king leaks are undoubtedly too many for the king to survive, etc ). Losing 3-4 heals on 3 or 5 or 7 or even 10 does not qualify as a valid reason. Keep in mind that cases vary.
This rule wasn't placed so we can ban more people. It was placed so we can protect users from players who decide to give up prematurely, be it by frustration, unwillingness to go on or simple outbursts. Sure, we've all been in games where we just wanna abandon ship, but that doesn't mean it's okay for the rest of the players. There's always the option of just leaving.
At the moment, no staff can implement any technical suggestions. We simply lack the knowledge. Therefore, increasing the vote requirements is not an option.
In conclusion, we are left with but one option. Rework or remove the rule completely. Personally, i don't think removing it would be wise. I'd rather make it more lenient.
If you guys would like to take the time to come up with an idea to improve said rule, please post your suggestion(s) on the appropriate section so everyone can voice his/her opinion.
