Seriously this is a dumb thread. Passworded games are people playing a private game, which means they don't want to play with you, let them segregate themselves.
If you ban passworded games, they'll just host open games and kick people. Passworded games are the solution to that, not the problem.

The fact is that they won't go to Main Lobby. They'll just do unlocked games. I've hosted those, I've joined those, I've witnessed those. I don't know where you got the idea that they'll move, but your data is horribly incorrect. They'll stay and stir up trouble.
Also if there was a "smartness" requirement for Sandbox, explain why we have noavi policy? Middle rule? Why LK days are all spam? Why we have Terrorists who bomb their partners? I can keep going. None of those contain any form of logic, reason, or rationality. They're "for the lulz". You can't argue "smartness" (as if that's even a possible scale) when it isn't even relevant.
Also you made me break out into proper typing. Eugh.
I was not intending to be sarcastic or joking. I was intending to be a hypocrite.

fun fact: if you intended to be sarcastic, joking, or otherwise not serious in your post, it was immensely unclear and you should not be giving us shi/t because of your failure to articulate.
fun fact: while you guys were busy obliviously arguing with me ive had my vote on no for quite a while like srsly

kicking is not effective. many hosts of passworded games will often tab out while they wait for their friend to join. many hosts are newer people are dont know what sandbox is truly like (i sure as helI didnt). it'll end up upsetting them because people they may not like in their games keep joining. and thus, people will start yelling and causing drama and getting into fights and stuff.
and before you say "cry me a river", remember my statement of not knowing what sandbox is like. many people just see it as the first place that isnt main lobby to host games. many people just want to play a fun game of maf with their friends or whatever. so when sandboxers come in with spamming, offensive words and stuff, memes these ppl dont know, etc etc, it causes a huge hubbub. and a lot of sandboxers actually are pretty decent pregame and then heck things up in game. also a lot of these people may not even know how to kick.
its all just preventing drama and keeping peace. keep passworded games.
Literally what the fak. People can't come to epicmafia and play with their irl friends because you don't feel included? How insecure are you that just because you aren't allowed in some game you want to ban it?
In other words I completely support this petition.
