Stalling : after 10 minutes you forfeit the match

@Martin_Stahl Yes, but it relies on players to report stallers. It doesn't have a mechanism to do this automatically. Therefore a good chunk of stalling continues and encourages others to do the same out of vengeance or desperation. Bottom line : the system needs fixing and status quo is unacceptable.

No it doesn't. There's automatic processes and players that do it too often get restricted.
