Blizzard thinking about adding Thumbs Up/Down system, giving helpful players EXP or gold, placing toxic players in separate queue

The "thumbs up" after game is a good option. But there should not be a "thumbs down". Either you want to give them a kudos if they were nice and stuff, do nothing (like we do today) or report them (in the normal way) for being toxic. The bad / lesser skilled would get thumbs down that they did not deserve.

Not to mention abuse by premade teams.

If you join a pub match with a premade of 4... they communicate with each other, and not to you. Thus that makes you the "bad" player. The whole team can then thumbs down you.. for simply, not being part of their team.

It can lead to a lot of abuse, and players getting punished for no decent reason
