I got 30 min timeout from Ranked because of striking dummies!?

Alright, let me explain slower so that even you can understand.

Let's say 2 ninjas are win trading. We're already assuming they are playing the same job so they can be on opposite sides each time.

If they queue at the same time, a few things can happen. They can both have an instant pop, only one of them can have an instant pop or they both wait in queue and then either one of them or both of them get a pop.

If they both have an instant pop or if they are in queue and have a match notification at the same time, they'll probably be in the same game. However, that becomes a lot less likely if other people are playing their jobs.

They can't know that there is already a ninja in queue, so what is more likely is that only one of them will get the match pop when it happens, me or someone else getting the other. If only one of them has a game, they are forced to play the match, since they can't cancel because they'll get a penalty.

It does make it harder to sync up queues to cheat if you are forced to play your games when your notifications happen. Even if they decide not to play the same job, it is still harder.

Worth it if the people getting "screwed" are those who decide to take a bio break at the worst time or don't know how to right click a training dummy target within 45 seconds.

Do you understand now ? Can I go back under my rock ?

no i fully understood what you meant, what you fail to understand is nothing about what you just said would stop anybody in the long run, honestly it would be better if they just removed the 'no job stacking' rule because that would force the win traders onto the same team and mess it up. maybe think before you try to be a condescending idiot?
before you say anything, yes i know you're just explaining things to the OP and im just pointing out how stupid this is due to the fact of how little this changes ANYTHING, its not gonna stop a coordinated group and if this is how square ACTUALLY planned on stopping win trading, they're stupid too.

I mean even if Square does catch you wintrading the punishment is a slap on the wrist. I'd expect a lifetime ban from ranked PvP, or maybe a perma ban from XIV entirely. /Sweep the trash out of our community.
