Sometimes if you wait until the 3 minutes has passed to attack, your opponent won't be so quick to resign. See if that helps.

You know, if you really want the rule reduced or removed your going to have to prove that as a community you'd be able to watch out for pumpers, whether your a mod or not.
Having this rule in place means the admins also have to deal with less pumping reports and makes pumping much less likely to happen.
I'm sure alot of people have known when someone was pumping but kept it quiet because they were friendly with each other and if you would want that rule kept in place you would have to decide what's more important.

So here my suggestion if you really want it reduced or removed make an official thread with some rules such as by reducing the 3 min rule you will agree to helping watch out for pumpers and that you will not take part in pumping yourself.
Get supporting senior members and other members to support the thread and see if an agreement can be made.

Well if you report someone as pumping no telling if the mod or admin will ever look at the player acused of pumping since they don't tell anyone if they did pump.

Hard to tell if someone is pumping cause theirs no rules saying how many times we can play each other before it's to much and it's consider pumping.

Playing against members is called " training " and " requirements " .

If you pump once then you might try it again. Since admins don't like to sees names posted even though the players have pumped for a fact. We cant help each other out to see if they are doing it again.

What's consider pumping? If I tell an admin I have a picture of me quiting a match cause we (me and the other player) agreed I didn't need the points.
Who's to knows if the admin takes the points away or even cares what you did.

I forgot but isn't sharing accounts consider pumping? I think sub doesn't like that for his clan leader board and I think It was posted before not to share accounts. But who knows the truth if van javas members losts any points when they shared accounts?

The 3min rules wasn't created to slow down pumping it was for unskilled players to have a chance at the game. And if you take off or lower the 3mins rules to 2min rule or something the pumpers will still pump. So to consider pumping they will still have to play more then 5 matches or more before all the admins will consider it pumping cause each person has a different way of thinking.

Isn't admins and mods jobs to stop pumping? What happens if they did their jobs for once will it hurt that much since all they do is sit in the chat room. And mute the worng people for what ever reason (lol)

That's why people had the idea that to agree on the rule to be shortern like if there was a command that only the person that made the match and types something like " /time ". The 3 minute rule will either be taken off or shortern and for the noobs they don't have to type the " /time " coz the rule would still be 3 minutes. The way to shortern the time would be to type in that command as I said .

Thats what I would go for.
