At the end of some really good matches, when the opponent took out all my weapons, I offered my head. Had the same offer extended to me by some friendly people and took it gladly. Should this become a custom, it might provide a reason not to go for the legs, but to have a real fight Mecha a Mecha.

Yup. After a good fight if I'm weaponless or out of ammo I'll power down as a sign of surrender.

Thought of a good way for pgi to discourage it by penalizing the rewards at the end of the match if you win by legging.

I'm with Throe in that legging isn't the smart choice at all times as is. Like, against an HBK-4G, I'd rather go through the 150 or so HP on the RT (they can't twist that away from damage very well, either) to completely neuter it than to chew through 180 HP worth of legs.

If PGI really wants to discourage players from legging, they ought to pump up the structure / armour quirks on legs across the board for Lights and Mediums.

The funniest thing is when I blow off a leg - and then the chain reaction of ammunition explosions destroys the rest of the mech for me.

My Jenner loves legging people. And has done for years.
