Small Suggestion for Leaverbuster from a penitent
I recently got Leaverbuster'd. Let me preface this by saying that i am fine with getting punished. [ Most of those were afks out of necessities (i dont ragequit), but then again, i just shouldnt have played then.]
However, i do have 1 small suggestion for the Leaverbuster:
- Make the Client minimizeable during the waiting period.
Yes, ofc i **know **that you can just open another window on top of it and (visually) ignore it, but on a business laptop like mine, it does use CPU and pushes the temperature by 8°C on average. Most people (especially desktop users) wouldnt even blink at that, but i am pedantic with my temperatures and i dont have a gaming rig atm.
People as astute as you must have realized by now, that people wont be staring at the team-up screen for more than a minute if they cant interact with the rest of the client anyway. So even if it was an extra incovenience by design - its not punishing anyone, because people will youtube, watch porn, click 8bit things to death, whatever. And its not helping anyone either. Its not helping, its not punishing so...
The only thing it does is waste computing power and cooling power on animating empty banners, that could be used to... i dont know, play another game, photoshop with funny filters, writing this forum post half a second faster, write on your thesis on the sofa with your laptop in your actual lap without killing your sperm, cure cancer, SETI or whatever the funzies.
Even if you agree with me, i get that this would probably be the last item in your priority list, but if you ever had the time, would be nice. I wouldnt know, but i dont think its hard to program is it? Just make it so that the timer popup doesnt disable the other buttons.
Sincerely, a devoted and reformed Player
