I played in RA last night and I got lucky. Made it onto a great team on my first try. We ended our run with 11 wins.

....And for the record, we didn't have a monk!

i only leave when matches carry on for more than 20 minutes cos of too many monks in the game. a RA game should never last more than 20 minutes anyway.
Great idea for both RA and TA. The runners are really getting out of hand. After we moved to TA last night, our first match was against a team of runners. They had 2 Assassins, a Ranger and a Dervish all loaded up with running and evasion skills. They didn't have a single attack skill on their bars as far as we could tell. We had some speed buffs on our side fortunately so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. We did manage to kill 1 or 2 early on, but everyone on their team also had rebirth so we had to kill them many times over before they finally gave up and quit running.

Just a simple mod that limits the match to 10 minutes. After that the team with the most kills auto-wins. If this results in a tie then the match goes to sudden death like the lava map does.

This is no 'Pick And Choose' Arena, by quitting before the match starts because you think the players will be idiots and won't win you any precious faction or gladiator points is like going half TA and half RA... i.e. doing and quitting RA to get a TA group, meaning you want a TA group in RA so you can trounce the opposition with ease. Do it like the rest, play your RA group and don't quit.

As for punishment, I think a time punishment should be imposed, perhaps 5 or 10 minutes, or however long the average RA match lasts. Doing this would effectively stop rage quitting 'line jumpers' and forcing them to wait for their next match.

Forcing to wait, forcing to play, not allowed to quit. Lol.
Good luck to convince ANet to do that with their customers. I'm sure if they do it to the game, it will only cause frustration and annoyance to players. And then people will make another thread to require to change it back, and it will be not only 4 pages like this.
Let this idea and thread RIP, seriously.

Well, heres an example of typical ragequitter

He said that he rage quit and I told him that rage quitters are noobs (arent they?)

And you're telling us that punishing that kind of erm... lets say people is not okay? Hell, they should be exterminated, not punished, but you want to let em go O-o
Pro playah who's in top20 guild (probably bought an invitation for gold- sucka ;D) yells at RA... that makes no sense

Note at the time of ur posting... pg 8 of this topic, not page 4... that 60% of the ppl viewing this are for some type of change and having it fixed....

As for ur comments.... I doubt anyone would be asking to have it "changed back" we are asking for a simple punishment to adjust ppls idea on what is accepted in the game.....

it really sucks when some jerk just logs because the battles get too hard.

Make the punishment a small stacking loss per day. So if you did it once you get -100 faction, you do it again, -200, again -300, again -400... you get it?

Also, I'm sure the programmers know how to write something so this system doesnt punish players who got err7 or something.

You cannot force someone to play. If I feel like quitting because I see no potential to recieve a glad point and some retard with a terrible build, I'm going to whether you like it or not. I thought about saying punish newbs who enter with crappy builds (as sarcasm) but then decided most people couldn't take the joke, plus they have to have somewhere to learn anyway. Guess I'll end the thread with two suggestions: 1. cry more. 2. if the ragequitter knows what they are talking about/demonstrated skills, maybe ask them WHY they ragequit and/or take suggestions on YOUR build if it was yoru fault instead of just flaming?

Wow, after looking at that picture, that really degrades Swift Heals. I've played plenty of matches with, and against him. He's not better than any average experienced player. In fact, he's not that great. All he is, is an opportunist. He heavily relies on the rest of the team, well like most players which is good. Except he constantly complains about one thing and does not help the rest of the team. Team has to help him... now then, that's not the ideal player.

I do dislike that actions of these types of players, but this can easily backfire against others.

Stupidest thing I have ever heard of.

You get a team of all idiots (happens about 40% of the time I think) you rage quit no one can say that haven't raged quit so stop complaining. Tired of rage quitters do a TA guild group problem solved.

Reasons why people rage quit in RA:
1) Their team doesn't have a monk
2) Their team does have a monk, but they don't like him
3) Their teammates are "gay"
4) They died
5) Someone else on their team died
6) They aren't winning
7) They are winning, but not sufficiently fast enough
8) Teammates not following their calls (read EVERY1 ATTACK MONK! GOGOGOGO!)
9) Teammates not calling targets
10) Teammates calling targets
11) They don't like your build
12) They don't like their build
13) The other team won't duel
14) Their opponents kite

I could go on for quite a while actually.

What? You're calling me, and every other GW player leaver? Something's wrong with you buddy, because there hasn't been a moment in which I quit because "no monk, wammo in my team, too long, blahblahblah" or any other so keep stuff like this to yourself

And no, it goes the other way
If you're tired of 40% idiots- go to TA...

Well, then if you're tired of quitter, go to TA, make an organised group to make sure no one quits. Same way, eh ?

Random arenas- you enter, you have 3 random ppl- where is the part when someone leaves?
Pretty obvious that you've no idea what are you talking about- mixing normal rules of random 4v4 and organized 4v4- gg

The point you're missing that there should be no leavers in RA- give me a GOOD reason for leaving
You understand that if you enter RA it's... ehm, RANDOM... it means you can get an idiot, w/mo mending + breeze, no monk etc- yeah, guess what- that's why it's called random
But as far as I know- that means you get MIXED with other players, no monk or any other character assured- and you fight with them
You don't leave- why? Because you spoil fun of other ppl- I think it's simple

Nah, I think I'll prove my point it a thread like "Recomended Update: Punish Rage Quitters In Ra" and hopefully AN will get rid of garbage... Oh, wait a minute- I'm already doing that!
So let's just wait for what AN says...

Your logic is flawed

You're excusing your own idiocy by pointing at other idiots? I find that funny, why don't you join'em in TA and take that VC with you?

If Im forced to stay in the match, I'll just go afk or even get myself killed to finish the match faster.
