Have penalties that apply, and stack.

I'm referring to the fact that there is minor LP loss, Ban Timers, etc that occur when a player declines when the "accept" or "decline" screen comes up when a match is found. This action is obviously done to punish players, and punishment is intended to curb peoples actions towards more favorable ones, but how could it possibly have a chance of working if most players, especially the most minor offenders who don't get the ban penalty, will never realize its happening?

There is no benefit to a punishment / behavior deterrent system if the person committing the behavior remains unaware of the punishment. There needs to be a warning in either the description for Ranked Mode and / or when you hover over the decline button during queue pops.
"Declining this queue may result in a loss of x VP" or something

I don't need this stated in the game right away cause they don't have it ready or something. But why for the love of god did they not tell us stuff like this at least in an Announcement????

There's no way they just sneaked this in without being open about it, huge L in that case.

Wait there's a penalty for waiting for 10 minutes deciding to go to the restroom or make some quick food and coming back and seeing you missed queue?

Personally I don't think there should be a penalty it should just find the next available person lmfao. Why are you penaltilizing people for not clicking a ready button. The ready button is there to see if you are ready tf is this 💩

#

Like queue times are not short enough where anyone would bother to abuse this

#

The penalty already exists

#

You have to restart the queue is the penalty

I knew posting this would get people mad, as a lot of people didn't know. But I'm really only doing so because the fix to giving people this information within the UI is something Omeda can do very easily. There's nothing stopping them from doing it, other than if they wanted to create an additional warning screen pop up, to make the information conveyed in a seemingly polished way, as some red bold text might be a bit ugly. I'd think it effective enough, as players simply being informed of this deterrent / punishment within the game is good enough for now.

It does explain why some ppl get harsher bans for what they think is there first offense when in reality it’s not because the game does not tell you this information. Which 10000% they should give some sort of info on this so ppl are not so confused

Yeah, shouldn't there be a message prompt anytime someone tries to "Exit to Desktop" as well? Draft dodging and AfK may both need a prompt before a player can exit the game or dodge que. Obvi that Alt + F4 exists but not on console.
