If you start a ranked match and at any point one of your teammates disconnects, it’s basically a free match where you won’t lose any points, but still have a chance to gain points.

I just left a match after both of my teammates' banners had timed out. Although I didn't receive penalty points, I am now BANNED FOR 45 MINUTES!
Edit:
So I've just read that I can't leave a match while I'm alive - without getting a penalty for leaving.
The thing with that is, that teammates frequently become verbally abusive when they've just died. I don't want to carry on playing in those circumstances when I might end up earning points for those types of teammates.
Putting people in a dilemma where they have to carry on playing with abusive teammates or face a ban is a double-bind, and the circumstances for it shouldn't be possible. In other words, players should be able to leave a match if they themselves are alive when their teammates banners can no longer be used. This would teach teammates to be circumspect when a teammate has survived.

@warslagSimple solution, mute them.
Another solution, throw a nade on the ground and end it all.
Did you read the bit about why I don't want to feel I'm forced to stay in a match with abusive teammates and earn them points?
Your suicide suggestion would only work as a menu option and where it doesn't affect stats, other than a specific suicide stat which should be separate to kill and deaths.
