haha, sometimes i ranked and my parents came home (Asian parents btw) i had no choices but to switch tabs, then when the coast was clear, I found out that I lost 15-20 point in the games that i dominated in, that's what pissed me off most :P ohhh memories!!!

The other person would just save himself when he's losing by turning off his computer and turning forfeiting off. This will probably also frustrate you and make YOU quit even though he was losing. No way. Just don't play SE till you get a better connection.

Lag forfeiting is a good idea. If the opponent freezes, you freeze too, and now you've just wasted time- except the system gives you and automatic win to compensate. However, I believe you shouldn't lose battle score for lagging.

Then everyone would all just tabclose to not lose rating.

Yeah, i know. mabey what they should do is make it so that you can survive 10 fps, instead of whatever they have it at right now. Also, since fps is constantly changing, how do they measure where its at?

These things are hard work for CJ. Wait till after spells and elementals are done. Just get a better computer or connection or quit :p

How about a Ping/internet speed requirement?

If you cause lag, the server will reject you? That way, no one lags, and everyone has a good time :)

Not everyone can HAVE a good connection, for example, in some places there are very few ISPs and they might be very far from you which could mean more lag for you.

so are u saying you'd rather wait 2 minute for a second in the game instead of just lose it and use the time for something else? Also i'm pretty sure your opponent would be pretty irritated...waiting 2 min for a sec. in the end the game would probably freeze.
