Yo, I'll start with an example as usual: Nitro 0/8/0 KDA 5 minutes into the game who start to ward the team jungle only to block you, the 5/0/5 KDA 700 GPM War Beast, from farming. You confront him but instead of owning up to the grief he starts deflecting: "fu wb trash u only farm u should have helped me", what do you do? Report and CC 15 unless miracles is the usual answer, this means that the current RAP system is broken since the damage is already done when GM's come with the banhammer. To fix this I suggest to make things more live via making it so when a player is reported X times in a game a (team of) GM's should be able to join as spectator(s) of the "live replay" with a lil delay to prevent maphax but with the abillity to pause the game as to discuss with players what's up in real time and solve the issue. In order for this to work properly GM's should be able to kick, ban & replace griefer(s) with fresh respectable players instantly thru a replacement system like I suggested in this thread. With this in place griefers will get their shit rekt in real-time, not a few days or weeks after the incident, hopefully also making it clear to them what's cool and not cool effectively preventing further abuse. Taking things one level higher would be to build a next-level self-learning AI that automatically flags malicious intent for inspection with high accuracy. The closest thing to this atm (?) is Google Perspective, it's not perfect but could definitively be used in-tandem with a squad of respectable GM's to better keep things in check. This better be a thing in HoN in the near future . Also thank you GM's for doing the exhausting (yet somewhat interesting I bet) work of sorting out & dealing with toxicity tl;dr?????????????????????????????? read the bold text only

Let me begin with an example: I'm in a game with 2000 GPM prodex Scout and has 25/0/40 KDA when suddenly a fresh wifi exploit is unleashed on darknet and my autistic neighbor hacks my wifi so I start lagging terribly, making the game unplayable. I normally don't use wifi and have a cable plugged in my PC but in in this scenario my ethernet card and all phones with 4G had also gotten fried by a lightning strike just before the game so I've got a minute pause and has to run like Usain Bolt to my neighbor and bang on his door hoping that we can resolve it in a timely manner... He doesn't open his door so I end up having to FBI my way into his house which takes a while and leaves my teammates in deep despair as the game is unpaused after a minute and I'm AFK. Luckily I'm not stupid so I've put a plan B in place where before I rushed to my neighbor I gave full control over my hero to the 2nd best guy in team: a Soul Reaper with 8/17/0 KDA so we may still be able to win the game. But then 40 minutes later when I get back to my PC after having solved the lag issue the game is lost and I've ended up with 26/35/40 KDA and 150 GPM, frustrating not to say the least... So, this leaver abandoning teammates thing is a real issue that could be resolved via simply letting someone take control of abandoned heroes via adding something like a replacement queue &/ the public games list but with a list of games that need a replacement. With this in place in the same scenario I would have simply called in a respectable replacement that would have easily won us the game. Stats can be split easily with me getting my 25/0/40 KDR part and the replacement guy getting his part. Also pls add votekick-replace on top of report with something like a GM having the final call if someone gets kicked or not joining live spectating if a idiot griefer teammate get a few votereplace votes, this would save a lot of games from being rekt by morons. thx
