I agree. Also, set a rule of 1 yorker per over only while you're at it.

Do this when playing the mates. 2 yorkers per over, and 2 bouncers (this isn't as widely used as you can generally knock a bouncer for runs). I'll never quit, that can be assured!

Just like Stick Cricket, their should be a punishment/consequence for quitters. Even if it was an emergency.

I think the best way to counter this is to maintain a quitters list and sticky it here. Whenever playing online, you can just refer to that list. I know its a headache but I think it is worth it. Also, codies should do something about it :(

I'll only be playing with people I know through PC or something anyways, so there shouldn't be a problem.

At least I hope! :p

I agree - the game should impose limits on yorkers/bouncers when playing online. Any more than two an over should be given as a no-ball - that'll soon put people off.

I disagree, they are not no balls, that is not cricket.

However, if you bowl more than 2 in an over maybe your stamina could drastically reduce?

Yeah have a thread with a list of quitters and put them in, that's a good idea. I imagine it'll be clogged with posts with names of Gamertags and PSN names within minutes since there seems to be so many out there.

I recommend finding out peoples on forums gamertags and psn's and only play them. If they quit you know where to find them :spy and shame on them :sarcasm
