What is the most annoying thing in GW? Leavers in your PvE/PvP team of course.
For example: (in RA)

Everyone except me and another teammate left (Lucky win I guess

). I shouldn't complain about that

There are many worse cases out there that sometimes you will have a 1v4 match because of 3 leavers in your team, your PvE mission failed just because of only 1 quitter in yout group etc etc.

What I suggest here is that some penalties should be applied to these 'hated' leavers. Well, I'm not sure what types of penalties should be applying to them but I do have a little suggestions here.

1. Fame/gladiator/etc points deduction: Player loses his/her points whenever he/she quits her group (I don't really like this 1). It's kinda unfair because it gives benifits to those with low or no points at all.

2. Publizied title/tag on the leavers (I like this 1): For those who quit their group frequently (excluding error 7), they will get a 'f***ing leaver noob' (example) title when they quit their group for X times. Unlike any other titles, this title is permanently, YES! PERMANENTLY (or maybe temporary, don't be so harsh

), shown on the player not only in outposts, but EVERYWHERE, and every character from his/her account so he/she will hardly get a group and may not get full co-operation from his/her teammates in RA.

For example in RA:

player (1): wow a f***ing leaver noob
*player (1) has resigned.*
*player (2) has resigned.*
*player (3) has resigned.*
*player (1) starts dancing.*
*player (2) starts dancing.*
*player (3) starts dancing.*
*player (4) leaves the game.*

In RA you get put into a Random Group. Random can be anything from a noob leaver to a elite gamer. If you don't like playing with noob leavers go to TA and put together a good guild group.

I think if they map out (vs disconnect) then they lose the ability to earn faction points (balthazar) for 10-20? minutes.

With RA.. you don't choose to be paired with someone who leaves, it just happens.

It's been suggested before...the search button is your friend.

Locking this thread, and all the other "Fix Leavers" threads in Sardelac, for the time being. When the new system is revealed, we'll look at it, look at these threads, and see if they need reopened or not. Until then, let's all be patient and see what we get.
