Leavers sanctions

*The main idea was here but this is a whole new one illustrated with better solutions.

READ COMPLETELY BEFORE VOTING.

Main points to be discussed:
1- Cancel Game.
2- The sanctions to be set against the leavers.
3- More ideas, rectifications.
4- Voting.

1- Cancel Game:

1.1) Creating the Cancel Game button and how it works:
The cancel game button will serve the players ingame to leave the game without being quitters, how? It will have the same concept as the "change game settings", when a player clicks on "Cancel Game" it will automatically send a warning in the next turn to all the players, for example "nightslasha proposed to Cancel this game". The rest of the players ingame will be able to choose whether to Cancel the game or to keep it running: The simple majority will decide (just like the change game settings feature).

1.2) Keeping the original Leave/Exit/Quit button:
Yes, there will be 3 buttons: Surrender, Leave/Exit/Quit and Cancel Game. Why should we keep the original button ? It will allow the leavers to leave instantly without closing the game/browser - There will be sanctions while you continue reading - Let's say one doesn't care about the sanctions so he presses Leave/Exit/Quit button. You might think it's useless I know, but keep in mind that Leavers will have to Alt+F4 their game/browser in order to stay away from sanctions so it's harder and might have to think twice.

1.3) Power shutdowns, internet and similar causes:
If you're wondering how will DCed players, or those who lost power and if the PC blocked/turned off, well the atWar staff should be able to limit the sanctions to the "Leave/Quit/Exit" button and to protect disconnected players from any sanctions.

1.4) I leave before I lose, what should I do?:
Losed games have been removed from the profile and now it shows the games you've left and not lost, so if you think leavers might be the players who don't like to "lose"/"surrender" it's now the abandoned percentage that shows your identity.. So no need to "Leave game" now and they will be protected from the sanctions..

2- The sanctions to be set against the leavers:

Well we all hate them, so I think any tough sanction would benefit us all. But here's some ideas:
- In scenarios, leavers lose SP or any hard sanction against them since scenarios need every nation/player to be present or the game isn't fair.
- In normal games, leavers have to wait for a period of 5-15 minutes or any period of time related to the time he spent in the game. What do I mean? If I've been playing for an hour and made a big empire like anyone else in the game, leaving would be crucial for my allies and some players leaving them with neutral cities and open borders. So for instance: 2 hours of gameplay is 15 minutes on hold and unallowed to join any other game. I'm just flashing numbers as an example but you can decide later, the important thing is the concept.
- Now if you want to make it fair, Scenario Leavers are suspended from any other scenario for the period of time (discussed in the idea above) however they can join duels, normal games. Normal Game Leavers are suspended from any other normal game and etc..

3- More ideas, rectifications:

Thanks for reading and if you got any more ideas or if you want to rectify (edit) any of the suggestions i proposed please go ahead and comment.

- Sanctions should be by IP and not by account, since the trollers can just switch to their alts and continue their trolling. (Updated by MoS)
- Power shutdowns and similar unwanted causes should be differed from the actual leavers. (Updated by Black Hole)
- Sanctions must be even more cruel: suspension and losing SP if leaving a game before week 5-6(300 or 500 SP). (Updated by Cossack)
- There will be a Leaver Ratio which will sanction players who leave a lot (at a high ratio) but will tolerate with the newly leavers (at a low ration). (Updated by Nero)
- A single game can be leaved with no ration affection therefore mapmakers and testers are safe. (Updated by El Fin)
- People who have their percentage of left games about 50% will have a mark/flag next to their names and game hosts will be aware of those players - Hosts are free to kick them or to let them play. (Updated by raetahcodeupon)
