I think the limitation for games could really be an option. My suggestion would be that people who drop out get a limit of playing a maximum of two games simultaneously, or even just one if they repeat quitting without a good reason (getting killed ingame is not a reason). Plus blocking them to register for new games within 6 months of dropping out of a game.

That way they will maybe start to cherish their games a little more and cannot hop from one game to the next one.

This is a sensitive subject. Sometimes people have rl problems and CAN'T play their turns for a while.

Then others simply join, if the game doesn't go their way they quit. This is abuse!

How do you tell the difference? Hard! The former will only have missed turns during a certain time period and not before.

The latter will be obvious!

So ban/kick/kill abusers and don't allow them to join other games.

Give the persons with rl problems a grace period where they cannot miss any more turns. If so, limit the games they can join to say one per month for say a year.

Just my 2 cents!

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
