Please Penalize People Who Quit Games By "Conceding"

[MisterXX]

I agree with the people who do not like quitters. I find it very rude to concede in the final turns of a game. I sometime see that in Kingdom Builder or 7 Wonders Duel. Consequently, I always give these players a red thumb and tell the system that I don't want to play with these people again.

I don't think there should be a penalty for this. It is very culturally variable whether this is considered rude or poor sportsmanship and you will frequently find people (especially in gaming cultures like Chess or Go) who get upset and find it rude when an opponent doesn't concede a lost game because they see it as poor form to prolong a lost game.

This is less common in contemporary hobby games, but I don't think this is an issue that has a single correct perspective, especially for playing with strangers on a website.
