The event has been ruined by leavers
It's not my style to make Zinger-esque threads, but PvP is completely ruined by people who are leaving. It's absolutely ridiculous. If there's no monk, they will leave. I'm getting this more than ever. It happens 50% of the time.

The problem is, what does this thread hope to achieve other than vent anger? All we can do is tell you it's a constant problem that everyone is aware of and I imagine ANet will most likely - in the distant future, find a solution to it.

What this thread does is show that the problem is totally persistent and not incidental.

This is what I mean. People think the problem isn't big. Bla bla bla play as monk. Are you crazy? When I'm finally on a team that won't leave, the opposite team will, and I'll miss out on the action and balthazar faction. Give me a damned break. Do you even play PvP?

Yes, sarcasm is dull.
OP,
Everyone knows leavers suck, everyone one knows there is major lag but there is no reason why someone has to post a new thread about the subject every few hours.

Then there should be a sticky, imo.

A sticky? why?
Anet are aware of the situation, a sticky will serve no purpose.

how about some more sarcasm?
more stickies is about an effective solution to this as suggesting that everyone plays monk in RA. There's a very good solution, remove the glad points from RA.
It may not be perfect, but it would at least make RA usefull for build testing, and just tossing around.

I've had great no monk teams. It is RANDOM Arenas for a reason. But I run a Rit healer and am able to get glad points almost every time I use him or at least a run of 8-9 wins. Imo if you want a guaranteed monk go play TA's.

Me too, beaten a few teams with monks before. If people bring something beside attack skills then being without a monk isn't a great lose.

must.. resist..!
imo. It is not random if you repeatedly leave until you get dumped in a "good" team.
I cannot see how leaving being an effective means of playing is good game design. 7 people are left playing an asymmetrical match because *one* guy decides he's too good for them.

RA has always sucked. Either leave as many people who get into a group with four warriors, four assassins etc do, get four people you know and sync with them till you get into a team together in RA (takes many tries nowadays it seems). If you get sick of that, get the same four people together and do TA though it'll be more of a challenge if you come across better players unlike RA teams.

Let me start with saying, you dont know Zinger.
No need to post a name of someone that people know to attract attention to your post.
PVP isnt ruined by leavers, RA may be but RA doesn't equal PvP,to some people its a small part of pvp,surely not enough to say PvP is being ruined.
Like people have suggested , play a monk then, what else can we do against people that leave because there is no monk?It is RA thats why not much is being done about anything there.
Numbers don't mean anything,sure you might be getting it 50% of the time, someone might be getting it 100% of the time and someone might be getting it 0% if the time,if i was to follow these numbers its saying there is nothing wrong with it.
Some people have said that their being a event for RA might mean Anet is looking to see if there are indeed problems with it and if there are how big they are and if they should do something about it.
The Event hasn't being ruined cause it barely has started, we are on the first day, give it a damn chance.

Sure there is, the squeaky wheel gets the grease (See no more trade spam in all chat plx) and 1,000 threads get the point across far more effectively than just one.

It's going to happen, and it can't be stopped. There is no reason a person should waste their time not getting a glad point and staying when they know they will go nowhere, so they leave. Cry about it.
