I don't know if it's possible, I guess it depends if they can set different conditions for whether you leave the lobby versus leaving the actual match. People need to be able to leave once they get disqualified, and they shouldn't get penalized for that. If they can actually penalize people who rapidly join/leave the lobby, then yeah, by all means hammer 'em. Give them an hour penalty, for all I care. It's screwing over the rest of us by messing with our group numbers, and if we wind up with fewer that 24 players we all get fewer points for our time.

I mean, if the customer is exploiting an online game to get an advantage over others, then yeah. I blame them for that. Square Enix should not be let off the hook for all the flaws in the game and in this event, but that doesn't justify players in doing whatever the heck they want to abuse an already bad system.
