Rule suggestion 1,2k+ LTD bot
Posted: Sat Dec 12, 2015 2:35 pm
The 1,2k+ bot has been around for quite a while now and it sort of became like an open lihl by now. Most of the games you'll see only familiar faces and everyone knows the rules of this bot; just like everyone knows it's common to draw if someone disconnects. I usualy have at least 1 draw per day, if not more, and i'm pretty damn sure that plenty of those draw were due to someone faking a disconnect to force a draw. Doing that is just way too easy, if you have a good stay rate you won't get autobanned and most players on 1,2k+ will always draw. Obviously not every draw is because of someone dropping on purpose, most will probably just be real disconnects; but that's still an issue. So my suggestion is that we're making disconnecting from the game a bannable offense, UNLESS the player is using gproxxy. This way we're not forcing everyone to use gproxxy, which would be hard to do anyway, but we're giving the players the option to decide for themself wether or not they want to risk getting banned if they dc without gproxxy. The initial ban shouldn't be too hard, maybe 12-24 hours as a warning, so that players who missed the new rule get a chance to get gproxxy to avoid disconnects after, but on second offense the bans should be way harder imo. The issue is that it's mostly the same people disconnecting over and over again... This way they can either finaly get gproxxy to stop ruin games or get banned, it's up to them.
