Unpopular opinion about Dodge votes and Earlier Surrenders

I know this will likely get downvoted to hell, but here goes.

I don't think there should be a doge vote and I also don't think there ought to be an earlier surrender than there already is.

Now for the reasoning, I think there are already too many people with defeatist attitudes who whine and pout in games as it is.

Typical scenario, a lane of your team gets first blooded or you guys start out 0/2. "gg ff @ 15" comes out pretty fast. There is a bounty system and comeback XP and unless you are really high elo, aka mid-diamond+, people throw CONSTANTLY. It may not be easy, and it may be an ugly comeback, but coming back to win is still really possible in most games.

"But OP.... what about the games where your team is 0/15 at 3 minutes in?!?!?" If that happens you are pretty screwed, yes and you probably aren't winning, but the amount of times that honestly happens is low and if you argue the contrary you are probably just being dramatic. Take that 15 minutes and reflect on your own performance and what you might do next game and just relax, take a deep breath, it's going to be okay.

Bottom line with early surrender is there are already enough shitty attitudes and people that quit trying because they didn't go 5/0 and snowball lane so its not going to be like they wanted it to. This is League of Legends, you knew what you were getting into when you started the game, that its probably going to take up about a half hour of your time, and that there is the distinct possibility of losing the game, and being crushed in 15 minutes in some cases.

Same logic applies for dodging, I don't feel like dealing with having to re-queue 6 times because our team comp wasn't perfect to a few people. You have no idea what their team comp is and its just going to be a bunch of people that think they know everything voting to dodge games constantly and it is going to suck trying to get into games.

Now go ahead and downvote me you filthy animals!!
