1. Surrender option should be allowed in pubs. With the above ascribed conditions. Maybe make it an game command option like -ts team surrender? So as to separate those that wish to have that option and not.
2. Yes, of course. You can learn a lot even from attempting to win a down hill battle. Personally I play to become a great player.
3. Forgiveable? Yes. Good attitude? No. I believe when players gain enough skill and experience then they can turn seemingly unwinnable battles around. From my experience most of the people wanting to quit and move on to the next games are players who most often have never experienced a hard fought come back before.
OP is describing a problem in DotA 2 that is more pressing. And that is 'bad' reporting. Reporting players that shouldn't of been so harshly punished for only being new or not skilful at the game.
That being said. I trust Valve cares a lot about these issues and will come to a intelligent system that takes in as much information in as possible before making big decisions on players.
