Default ANET to penalize PVP Leeching
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User_talk:Ryan_Scott
Quote:
we're going to be implementing a "Deserter" style system that punishes leavers in random formats with PvP downtime. This will only be applied to the problem areas, so TA, HA, and GvG players will not have to worry much about this. That being said, since we're disallowing players to leave and join repeatedly to get a team capable of 10 wins in RA, we felt we needed to take the cap down. These changes will go hand-in-hand.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that we're also adding mechanics for punishing leechers and a time limit on RA/TA games to stop runners.
editted to make reference to Gladiator thread for context

Within a few weeks we will be implementing a system that takes action against players who continually leave prior to the end of battles in PvP.

Very nice. Can't wait to see how it works (or if it works).

Also, I'm liking the transparency the wiki is bringing to the table.

Rly nice. Finally I hear something about punishments for leavers. Once I started 31 matches, and there was always one or more leavers. I was so angry....and the nice thing is that many times they were monks....other leavers expet to see a monk, and monks? what are they expeting to see? I dunno how people minds works....I thought about this 2 punishments:

1)You loose 1k faction for each time you leave a game.
2)You get a random skill locked into your account (this is rly bastard xD)

Anyway I like the first method^^

And plz don't talk me about people putting efforts into titles....I mean, with my warrior I'd like to have survivor....but what? I cannot as I created it on the first day of prophecies. So don't talk me about fair things and unfair things. Wwithout talking about how mahy identified golds I lost....oh well.

im surprised and relieved to see this in the works. surprised that its taken ANEt so long to implement this, but i guess now that theres nothing left to do with PvP but nerf skills they must have more time now.

So will we be punished for leaving a game early when we don't want to deal with some lame ass runner?
