Juggling ideas around: Force muting for another player
Today i was thinking:
this would be for ranked queues only
one of the many reasons that games can be lost is simply because people would rather argue than win the game... so I thought of something why not be able to force mute 2 (or even 3) arguing teammates amongst eachother.
in other words if teammates start to argue and it gets too bad, allow the ally team to casta vote to either restrict them from chatting (and thus arguing) and muting the allied player whom they are arguing with.....
this works both ways. if somebody is abusing a certain teammate why not just vote them muted for him just in case he doesnt have the state of mind to do it himself. It always hurts when i see people doing this to people who i do see are genuinely trying. and when these go on record that the team had to forcibly seperate them, it could even help in quicker tribunal decisions.
naturally the specifics arent exactly clear of how a system like this would work (note the title is juggling ideas around) but i think it's interesting in theory, please do discuss maybe we could even try to make this an actual thing,
