No ban for players with 0 reputation?

Post by Buziek »

How are players like this still not banned? Literally leaves 2/3 of all the games (over 150 games! :shock:) and is still allowed to join new games. And there's no way to even report the player so he/she can continue to ruin the experience of others.

I usually try to be supportive and still give a chance to players with low reputations (it happens, I had a moment when I dropped below 50 too), but this kind of abuse and zero consequences means there's not point in risking it...

Use the reputation filters.

Difficult to tell the difference between a very bad player, and someone that just when AWOL for a good reason, like a hospital stay or the like.

If it is continuous 0% after joining and getting thrown out again, then yes a (auto) ban would be in order.

I'm guessing because the consequences of having 0 karma (such as being excluded from tournaments and by anyone who uses karma filters) are deemed enough of a punishment.
