Play-ban the throwers: If we want to block the throwers, we should also report the throwers. They make our ratings go down on purpose so we should play-ban them.

in the 3 player / 4 player stage not the ones who resign immediately that is already against the rules and is punished by admins

But in doubles, when your teammate resigns, you also lose ratings, and that happens a lot

The management in doubles is terrible. If your teammate resigns, then you can report him.

ok the way you say this sounds ridiculous but in reality it is kind of a big problem. at the end of the day ffa does become a team game where you have to accurately read the other players' minds or else two of you lose immediately lol

the admins should be able to tell by their ratings. If it is 2000+ player who is playing like an idiot, then that can be a play-ban, but if it is a 1500, then the admins can just ignore it. Also, 1500s won't report that.

there's a difference between intentionally throwing and a player just being bad, and sometimes that's hard to tell
