One of the main discussions on this topic. As mentioned here and there ^ and annoying as it is, penalties in a casual F2P lobby is probably not for the best. It should be reserved for the ranked lobby if/when we get it. I think that's fairly common practice these days.

There should be a disincentive for people to disconnect, but you really need to make sure you're not punishing people who experience crashes.
If I remember rightly one of the Halo games had incremental bans like someone has suggested. Something like 30sec for fist offence inside 15mins, then 1min for 2nd offence, 3mins, 5mins etc etc. In addition i think they could only get back into their original lobby for the time of their 'ban'.
The aim was to 'timeout' people who genuinely rage quit by making them wait an ever increasing time and/or forcing them back into the game they quit. But at the same time it didn't penalise the occasional random disconnect or shutdown as it'd take more time to load the game than the lengths of 1st and 2nd offence bans.
I hope that made sense.....
