I think before you propose an idea like this, you might need to consider two things;
- Work on the actual hard details of the idea - as far as I see, you only have the rough idea (early surrender in ARAM - which on its own is a wild enough gamemode that it allows Surrender votes at 15, so I'm not sure if you mean Surrender at 10 or what), and didn't actually thoroughly describe your suggestion - you just gave the reason you came up with it and followed with the hypothetical pros and cons. We still don't fully understand your idea, because you didn't fully form it - so everyone is left to assume their own interpretations of it.
- If you're going to make a poll for it, take it seriously. Like, for real, because your poll basically consists of "Question: Am I smart or am I a crybaby", with options being A. Mock the OP, B. Laud the OP for a decent idea, or C. Mock the OP more. If you make your poll so goofy and self-loathing, with no seriousness taken to the main body, you're only making it easier for people to completely disregard your idea and your post as a whole.
How I would suggest to go about these improvements;
- For formulating the idea, separate it into three parts; the Reasoning, Idea, and Following Thoughts.
- The Reasoning should be basically as you put here, but you should consider trying to subtract the personal nature of it, perhaps rephrase it as a broad statement - "Because ARAM is such a non-serious and hectic gamemode, it's bound to attract a number of trolls who take full advantage of some of the Champions they're given. I myself have had some such matches where one person causes the entire game to go completely downhill, which brings me to my idea:".
- The Idea should be fairly thoroughly thought out. If it functions like an already existing mechanic, you should understand how the mechanic works across the game; Surrender votes in ARAM at 15m, whereas in Summoner's Rift they open at 20m, with Early Surrender being an option at 15m. Early Surrenders in Summoner's Rift require unanimous agreement (all five players have to vote "yes"), where post-20m Surrenders only require Vast Majority Vote (4/5).
- With this, you have to really think; "how would this work in a gamemode that's often over so fast that by the time the Surrender Vote is available, you're already down to your Nexus Turrets?" Why would an Early Surrender (which, as far as it's been used in League, requires unanimous vote) be remotely effective in matches of ARAM with trolls? The ARAM Early Surrender would have to work differently than the Summoner's Rift Early Surrender, which in all honesty might cause some issues for people who go between modes.
- Lastly, the Following Thoughts are - for the most part, how you provided. Details of what you think the pros and cons might be, potential abuse cases, etc.
- As for the Poll, instead of writing some half-honest, half-off-topic question with no seriousness in the answer choices, make a short, simple conclusion question and make the answers honest and serious. For example, I'll take yours, write my observations in full parentheses, and write what I would consider an improved version with thoughts.
Original Poll:
So am I being a crybaby about this or would it be a decent idea? (Again; half-mocking, half-honest, belittling your opinion offers nothing.)
1) Hell yeh (I'm not sure which part this is in agreement of; mocking you, or agreeing with you? Either way, it only offers confusion.)
2) Good concept but needs work (this is an okay answer choice; it's clear, and provides a succinct, pre-thought counterargument.)
3) QQ some more (this is, like half of the poll's question, serving no purpose other than to mock and derail the main post.)
Alternate Poll:
Should ARAM have an Early Surrender option in case of players trolling? (Short, sweet, and distills the main post into a simple question.)
1) Yes, it should. (Simple answer with clear agreement to the proposal.)
2) Maybe, though it needs work. (Another clear answer; modest agreement with suggestion of further thought.)
3) No, it shouldn't. (Simple answer with clear disagreement.)
It may also be ideal to add an option 4. "Maybe, though I have suggestions" to prompt people with ideas to add to comment and help potentially refine the idea. This is of course totally optional, but it can help in the event that fully formulating the idea is proving difficult.
That said, I don't personally have any thoughts regarding ARAM since I don't play it, so for my opinion I'll just defer to people like JOoO.
