Description

The code of conduct has the following line:

Dragging out clearly won games is poor form and undesirable

This should be clarified

However, under no circumstances should you quit a game and then harass the remaining players to resign

Why?

In many cases, it is hard to say whether a game is "clearly won", and games naturally swing both ways.

This rule results in toxic activity where some team members quit games early and then harass remaining players (as specs) to resign, sometimes quoting the code of conduct.

This causes a "hang the witch" kind of situation where players in the game want to just keep playing the game, but easy-quitters resign at the first sign of trouble and try and kick/ban the players who are enjoying playing the game to its natural end. For example, in an 8v8, 1-2 players may give up and attempt to kickban the remaining players citing COC and sometimes they are successful.

The other team may co-operate with this if the game is ranked because they may want the win.

What area of the game does this feature request pertain?

Other

Other (optional)

There is no shortage of servers. Do not make a rule that causes toxicity towards players that want to play a game to the end.
