    They do not need to remove lobby leaving. They however 100% do need to make prestige hidden on lobbies though in order to stop dodging / lobby shopping. This would solve a lot of issues.

    While we are at it, BHVR should also 100% treat disconnects during the match loading as a standard disconnect and give that player a penalty if it happens frequently. It is so irritating to spend time queuing for a match, waiting for the lobby timer to start the match and then have someone crash/alt-f4 their game because they didn't like a offering or something. The result of this causes the match to timeout after a long wait and not get played, so everyone else has to spend another 5min waiting for a game just because someone had a little tantrum at an offering.

    I think if this many people are dodging offerings or Kobe-ing on first hook against certain Killers, it shows that both of those things are significant problems. If someone isn't even willing to engage with a game when they are involved, they probably are the source of grief.

    I do think Killers dodge for no (real) reason from the lobby, but sometimes you can 'smell' a cheater. Hiding Prestiges is good, but hiding names is probably bad. If I see a dude with an 8 timezone difference from their steam profile, I'm not going to (enjoy) play(ing) with them.

    Do you realize how dumb you sound by asking for the removal of a leave button. Hide info sure, but if you remove a leave option, people who are really desperate to dodge will just close the game and open again. This already happens with offerings being shown.

    I reserve the right to dodge teammates who look like they're going to grief me. I've been in enough matches to be able to judge, and every time I've ignored my gut instinct I've regretted it. I don't want to play with two or three people who are obviously together and have crass names.

    I'm a casual player. I'm not like "ohmigod I gotta win," I'll play with three Sables and get disappointed if no one ever goes into the basement to do the silly invocation because I'd totally join them. I don't dodge people because I'm worried about losing, I dodge because I can recognize a miserable time. Being the random solo with a 3-man SWF has been consistently miserable.

    There should be a way to weed out people you dont want to play with especially if they previously trolled your previous games.
