DC penalty needs to be removed until the servers are a little more stable

The amount of games I've had over the past month or so where I suddenly get disconnected with a "Dedicated server is not responding; disconnecting" message is insane. I'm currently up to a 15-minute DC penalty because I cannot go a single day without this happening at least once. Conveniently, this almost always happens when I'm doing a little too well as killer. I've seen mention of hackers being able to crash the server when they're losing, which wouldn't surprise me given the timing, but regardless of what the actual cause is, players shouldn't be punished for something like this that they have no control over. It's not our fault that your servers are actual garbage.

    My swf got hit by it recently and we all got a dc penalty... Clearly all 4 people didn't intentionally dc at the same time, at least remove the dc penalty for host not responding
