Location: Florida | Banning the account would be innefective because it requires human intervention. The asshat timer is the only solution that I can imagine that could work because it punishes that sort of behavior - automatically. I am a bit devious in that I think it should be rolled out without fanfare and the timer should be invisible. Then. - when some asshat complains about how his game inexplicably keeps surrendering on him - we can all point and laugh.
Maybe... If a person gets a dozen or so in a week the game could auto-suspend that player for a few days.post updated on Aug 20, 2010 @ 4:53am |

Location: Colorado The Queen Bee | Heheh... Just chiming in, here. I do like the idea of this wicked little timer. Long, drawn-out win parades are ridiculous and it would serve the idiot right if he suddenly lost all his ships without warning. However, I have no guarantees about any sort of change like this right now. I can stick this in our "to-do" database and we'll certainly talk about it whenever Phil gets around to making an update. He's still up to his eyeballs in Android stuff at the moment. |

Location: Florida | Thanks nanno - that is good to know. Seems to me you were the first one to tell me about the pending Droid-con.
I hope the fix is sooner rather than later - it seems there aremore and more Asshat parades and I'd hate to see our new android players turned off by this . |
