Sync Teams
With the double RA weekend there are probably a good few of us that have had come up against cheating syncing gits. I had one earlier, was at 18-19 wins and the team had 3 from the same guild and the end of a very good run. Is it worth takin screenies and sending them of to anet if I see it again?
It's is a form of match manipulation and they should get banned for it.
You try hard and when u are lucky enough to get a good team its is not really fair for ur team to get screwed like that.

No, it's not worth it.
True story:
I once entered an RA match and ended up with 3 synchers from the same guild on my team. They probably had a 4th member synching with them because the three of them griefed and falsely /report -ed me for leeching. Obviously I wasn't, so I took screenshots of the matter and sent it to customer support for three reasons:
-to prove to them that I wasn't leeching so I wouldn't get banned.
-to report to them that the three guildies were abusing the /report command.
-to report to them that the three guildies were synching.
After a week of conversation through the ticket I submitted, they closed my report, because they said that I couldn't prove that I wasn't in fact leeching.
-edit: to make things clear: they never banned me for leeching in the end. Support just did what it was good at: absolutely nothing.
/facepalm

Same thing happened to me Maridon. However, after all three reported me for leeching (which BTW, they did before 5 seconds had even passed and the match hadn't started) they immediately type /resign.
I refused to resign because I don't care that their poor little friend didn't make it (cuz if he did, they'd most likely be the team of 4 that my team fought) so they, guess what, leeched. They sat in the gate and stood there and did nothing until they all died.

and yes this happens alot..for high ranked players..they tend to resign/just give up until they get a well balanced team or they believe its a waste of time even playing if the team is just bad even though its called RANDOM ARENA for a reason..or ppl can just leave the group if they dont like their team if they win..the team should get another player IF they leave before the timer hits 0
also u shouldnt fright at ALL about being reported...ive been reported many times for resigning and sitting there. ive also been reported by syncers just by ending up on their team..but i dont care..if ur running a decent build they probably wont mind at all that ur on the team because really.. if they can get glad pts out of it..they dont care..thats how most players think

fix dishonorable from RA or at least fix the glad system plz!
this double weekend shld be fun for people who want the glad title, but its not for me. Syncers aside, i get a few dishonorable hex by people who report me for leeching as a monk when they couldnt even kill a single member of a 4 dps team for 2 mins, so i stop healing after the 2 min mark and technically i wasnt leeching, but 10 secs after i stop healing, i was reported for leeching and i get the dishonorable hex! that was despite the fact that only 1 person in the team reported me for leeching!
dishonorable for leeching just shldnt exist in the first place, or they shld at least be modified so that leeching report is possible only if the team has won at least once.

It's pretty bad. There are guilds named syncing puns or names with tags like [SYNC] who do it daily and are reported daily, yet never banned.
As someone mentioned earlier, support isn't doing a damn thing about this.

Of course it's annoying losing on a streak when you're so close to getting the next batch of glad points, but you just have to let go no matter how frustrating it is.

Not officially considered bannable by Anet, I think. It's not that support are lazy, they just don't have to be.

Right, because abusing the randomized algorithm in RA, in an attempt to predetermine the people in your team, therefore creating an advantage, totally isn't match manipulation.

It is for some people, it isn't for others. Anet are in the camp that think it isn't so it's not a bannable offence.

Somewhat true, but mostly bullshit. I've seen several sync groups of mid/high ranking players, and relying on some random other people in a poorly balanced RA group, you're most likely to lose due to lack of coordination and poor team composition to a balanced sync team using vent.

Well to sum up RA this week end event : 0 monk for hours whereas opponent always has one ( but thats only luck anyway ) , most people bsurges , faither parasitic necros , empathy mesmers ( not many rangers , paras ..) , many w/mo , d/mos solo survivors .. and finally once you got a monk or an ok team , you lose to sync .... . So , as i said it already , luck > skill in this arena..
