Yet another case where the simple fix suggested SO MANY TIMES would apply:
Code the game so you CANNOT be put into a random que with anyone on your ignore list.
Solves the leaver problem: Someone leaves, put them on ignore, never see them again.
Solves the premade pugstompers problem: Ignore everyone on the premade, never face them again.
Solves the AFK leecher problem: Once enough players have ignored the AFKer, they will not be able to get a que to pop EVER.
Leaver penalty prevent players from self moderating crass behavior. I rarely ever leave a match but I like having the right to do so if:
A. Game populates a que with some ludicrous team situation such as 5 vs 2 etc.
B. Someone on MY team is behaving like an azz. (awhile back I started suggesting that the entire team leave a certain very crass individual to fight alone so we didn't have to see "You are the weakest link! GOODBYE!" over and over again. Got a suprising ammount of support and haven't seen that player in a LONG time)
In summary: Give us the "no autoteam with OR against players on ignore list" option and I would 100% support some sort of leaver penalty.

This is a great idea! One of the things that is also lame is that when the entire opposing team warps out on you, the match does not end. So you get no credit towards your dailies and no EC. When an entire team leaves, the match should auto end with the remaining team wining by default.
If you queue up you accept the possibility that things might not go your way, whether the other side is a premade or your side is full of "noobs". It would be nice if Cryptic took a little time to do some quality control on their game but there is only so much they can do about ridiculous, selfish players.
If you quit you are the griefer and no better than <insert whatever lame excuse makes you feel justified>.
There is always a reason to quit, there just aren't any good ones (not related to the game anyway).

It's terrible but easy, and these Borg are way cooler than the mess STO and Voyager left us.
May not actually be "way" cooler or even "slightly" cooler.
