Players who rage quit.

Now that we can see our opponent's names in battle, can we also start a blacklist of players who rage quit or would that go against any terms of service surrounding libeling?

Although we still get a win, I have gotten a loss in the past from someone rage quitting. It was probably a glitch, but the reality is that there are currently no punishments for rage quitting. You still get a loss on your record if you do, but this conduct is still unsportsmanlike behavior.

There's a reason they put a "concede" button in the game. Just swallow your pride and hit it. It's not like your opponent had a microphone and can laugh at you. Move on to the next opponent.

    Posting player names is not allowed. I've tried.

    The quitting doesn't bother me at all actually.

    For one; the game doesn't allow you to tap through the annoying after match animations. So it is much faster to force-quit the app and restart.

    Two; I like to imagine that the person I'm playing against is so upset by my superior play, that they decided to end it all with a gun in their mouth. 👿

    Please don't name and shame. Especially for something as trivial as rage quitting. It has zero effect. Them staying and letting animations play out, or the ten seconds for the lost connection are about the same. You still get the win.

    Besides. Sometimes quitting is warranted. If theyre going to be a troll and let their time run out every turn, and i know they're going to win that round. Ill leave. Why wait around for the timer and give atroll the satisfaction of the animation?

    Dall said it best. This thread adds nothing to the game's experience. take the free win and move on.

    "Them staying and letting animations play out"

    Animations don't play out when you hit the concede button. 😒

    Oh my goodness, they don't?! Lol

    Look the point is, there are 3 options.

    Let they have play out. Concede. Quit.

    Conceding is fastest, then quitting.

    If they're so bad they don't want another round. Quitting is fastest for them.

    The other thing to remember... this is a mobile only game. You can't use the excuse of, "don't play if you can't finish" when signal matters.

    It's not a burden and you still get credit for a win, they still get a loss. So really, where's the harm?

    I usually quit if I don't play another game, conceding is annoying and takes much longer.

    I'll say again;

    Force quitting and restarting the app on an iphone is a much much much much faster way of getting a new game than conceding.

    End of story.

    We get that, grinning... but believe it or not, iphone isn't the majority anymore, by far. On android it's faster to concede. I still agree with your sentiment n though. There's no reason to punish quitters

    My issue against the rage quitters is that they often interfere with my achieving a quest.  When quests are your only route to free gems, it's annoying to have to play one more game just to get a few more life points or play big plants/zombies.

    @AphidOfDeath on that note, conceding is no different, though. It's still before you do that damage or play those cards.
