Server of Freedom

Then, every player banned for harassent gets thrown there without the option to change server. And you put that server on its own datacenter so that it can't participate in any cross activities. Basically, this would create the first MMO penitentiary.

I don't play them so I'm not sure, but don't some MOBAs already do this? I've heard people that drop from matches or get reported for toxicity in certain games get put into their own queues with other players like that.

No idea, I never tried any MOBA.

To answer this question, I can't speak for other MOBAs but, yes. Dota 2 does this.

If you are reported and found at fault for what you were reported for (Bad behavior, match throwing, match fixing, list goes on.) or you've abandoned multiple matches in a row. At first you may receive a warning. But continue that stuff and you are put in the jail pool where you are only allowed to match with and against other inmates. In order to be released, you have to complete a certain number of matches in that pool. You can't just wait a timer out, you MUST complete those matches. The number of matches is determined by how much of a repeat offender you are, starting at 10 last time I was there. But if you are a serial visitor of the jail pool, they might just move to temp banning you. I also believe if you break rules again while in the pool, you get into even bigger trouble and face a perma ban even, I'm unclear there, I've only been in the jail pool once or twice and I stayed on my best behavior during those times.

Though, things may have changed, I haven't played Dota 2 in earnest in a couple years, so idk if they changed that up recently but when I 'retired' from the game, that was very much how punishment was handled.

My husband tried playing LoL once. After 3 matches he was banned for playing badly, when he was only playing badly because he was completely new to the game XD

Pretty impressive. What kind of trash was he spewing to earn that ban after just 3 games?

[StarRosie]

I would call this a unhealthy environment to play in. If you need stuff like that use discord and invite only people who tick the same way...

Yeah, a server like this sounds like a lawsuit or something just waiting to happen...if ya need a space where ya feel safe to speak your mind folks, discord server. Super simple.

Keep in mind, I'm agreeing with Ilan. Just clarifying.

And here I thought Dota 2 had a high bar of entry...

Yeah a lawsuit would come pretty fast from the people that wanted a server like that and then get roasted ingame and can't handle it.

To get banned in LoL after just 3 games, which would've been games against bots, requires more than just playing bad. There are so many levelbots in this game that are literaly just running it down and they are not getting banned that quick.
