Actually the problem is a little bit more complicated in my experience. It is very often the case that ppl have not connection problems in general, but that 2 specific player in the same game have connection problems to each other and one of them is behind for everyone else because of that. Both players wouldnt have problems if the other one wouldnt be in the same game.
Giving hosts the ability to blacklist such ppl wouldnt solve that problem necessarely, and would go in the wrong direction anyway.

Well what can you do, lobby ping test also isn't infallible, even after altering the code to show pings always I've come across situations when a dude had 200 ping in lobby and spiked to 2500 in game... All you can do is kick players known to have connection issues or have problems connecting to others because they have a higher chance of dropping in game.

Admins in chat can close people's games so PM them with some screenshot to prove the guy lags and refuses to leave.

Actually it does now it's been fixed some updates ago and now it shows up if your ping to the guy is >500 which is only semi-useful.

Until they close their game half room will quit. Sad truth

A fun, little known thing about foes - your foes don't see games you host.

Theres no way to detect a net lagger in lobby atm, so heres solution.
And foelist is useless if you are playing in not your own lobby.

Hosts can blacklist people who lags very hard and non-stop to no longer allow them at their games.
Everyone other is able to see how many people blacklisted this guy in lobby, and decide to allow him to play or not.

If someone blacklists people masses (just to grief) disable his ability to blacklist.

I think enough info.

Or a kick option to kick hard-lagging players if they dont quit themselves.
