Penalties
Please, we need harsher penalties for people who constantly ruin matches for others. If all players vote against a specific player, that person should be banned from matches for the rest of the day; the same should apply if more than three instances of inactivity are detected. I really love the game, but I'm starting to lose enjoyment because of all these frustrating situations.

I understand the feeling... but you've got to be careful about abusing or misusing that kind of penalty.

This has been a consistent issue with Unite..
Honestly I would make the penalties way harsher.
If you're AFK because you disconnected you get banned from ranked matches for 10 hours
If you're AFK because you are intentionally idle or shut down your game mid-match you get banned from playing for 3 days
I would also add a new feature where when the first player claims jungle, the wild pokemon become "assigned" to that player, so if that one Greninja tries to take it, they get a 5 hour ban from ranked matches.

Ummmm how can you tell between an intentional afk and a Pokemon Unite server "reconnecting" issue which happens quite frequently sometimes taking 2 minutes to reestablish through NO FAULT of the trainer? Wifi and server issues happen especially since the last update. I've had the server log me or my friends out completely during a match. It's annoying and embarrassing, but none of us did it maliciously nor did we want it to happen intentionally.
I just think it's hard to differentiate between the two.
Now if the trainer is in game, circling or spamming attacks or spamming "return to base" while in the homebase respawn point for more than 5 seconds, YES! That is definitely intentional and bad behavior. If one isn't willing to see a match through to the end, don't play at all.

By intentional I mean closing the game with no connection issues.
If it takes a few minutes to reconnect then that counts as unintentional

How can they tell the difference? Is there a way to detect that?

Because they have systems to detect server/wifi issues. If they detect an issue, an exception will be made.
But if someone is afk with no wifi or server issue, than it was likely intentional

Ok. Works for me. I didn't know they could tell the difference of how you were disconnected from the server, just that you disconnected.
Hmmmm ... Since they can tell the difference why do we still get penalized even now when it's a server issue? They claim we were "idling in match" but they know that's not the case.
