Is 24-48 Hours disconnect penalty too much

I understand that the disconnect penalty system was put their for a reason and it does gradually get higher and higher after disconnecting multiple times. However I do think a 24 to 48 hour penalty is too much tbh. I mean what if someone has a bad internet connection and didn't mean to disconnect when playing Dead by Daylight game he might have to wait 24 to 48 hours every time. In my opinion I believe an Hour penalty should be more then enough to encourage players to not disconnect during a match. But what do you guys think? Do you think the system is fine as it is, should it be removed or should they decrease the max time to a hour or so?

    I'm one of the players that's been having the NO NETWORK CONNECTION and being dropped a lot, so I feel the pain. I got a six hour ban before I realized that when servers are dropping you, they're going to keep doing it so just give up for the day. I've never DC'd on purpose.

    It's especially frustrating when the game knows you didn't DC, gives you your points and then penalizes you, I think that should be changed.

    But I still disagree. Quitting crybabies are the most pathetic players and they should be penalized until they move to another game. If quitting is part of your strategy, I want to make you quit and I don't want you to come back. This game has too many crybabies.

    No, if someone disconected that many times(excluding a bad internet connection) then they deserve a 2 day ban. Just ######### on hook if you really want out

    If you get to 48 hour because of your internet you need to upgrade your WiFi bruh.

    If your DC ban goes over 24 hours you need to either:


    A.) Chill the hell out and quit ditching matches.


    OR


    B.) Get better internet.

    Ban for internet issues is actually reasonable. If your internet so inconsistent you shoud stop ruining games to another players until you fix this issues. Your teammates and opponents have even less resposibility for your internet than you.

    I got 5 min ban yesterday for lost connection. If it escalate to 6 hours ban I will contact my ISP and ask what the ######### is going on.
