A possible "solution" to trolls in competitive mode.
Post Body

Ok, so hear me out on this one...

What if there was an option in comp to "flag" yourself as a non-troll player that is willing to fill whatever roles are needed for the team. This would mean that players who are trolling would be suspend-able, due to the fact that they checked a box that said:

"I understand that by marking myself as a (let's call it a TrueCompPlayer for the sake of this explanation), I hereby acknowledge that if I am reported for griefing and proven guilty while having this flag enabled, I will be susceptible to temporary suspension from competitive mode".

Now, I know that people already get suspended for griefing (sometimes), but that's not the main point of this idea. The goal would be to minimize the amount of troll players you get grouped with, ultimately leading to a better gaming experience

Again: this wouldn't affect your SR gain/loss or the skill of players you are grouped up with. There is no real benefit from it. You'll still get bad teams from time to time, only the chances of it being because of one shitty person are far, far less.

The only reason that I can see for this being a bad idea would be that splitting competitive que-time into two separate pools would create a much longer wait time. Though idk if it actually WOULD affect it that much. Thoughts?
