I think he has a good idea of what will make him lose.. he won't be so dumb as to discriminate by class..

It sounds to me like that's exactly what he's doing. I can't respect anyone who thinks it's ok to ruin the fun of 7 other people just because they think losing is the end of the world.

I said it once and I'll say it again: Random Arenas is Serious Business.

So it's only the end of the world if you lose/win because someone quit? You're being a little melodramatic both ways, there. Sure, quitters, afkers, and runners suck and make getting the Gladiator title hard but if that's all it takes to ruin something for you, perhaps you need to do more team arena.

Penalties like Balthazar point deductions isn't going to fix the problem. Rather, perhaps you could say it would overfix the problem in that less people are going to bother playing altogether in fear of disconnects or emergencies that will cause their faction farming to be counterproductive.

It's the same problem with the Factions PvP maps, solutions are either so harsh they hurt -everybody- or so slight that the dedicated asshats will shrug them off.

There is a reason why ANet changed the name from Competition Arena to Random Arena

I mean seriously, the lower level people paid the same price for the game that you did. Let them/us play too.

Yeah. And besides, some of us can't kill a lvl 20. It would be nice if we had some lvl 15 heads to bust

I dont know that I even agree with the lvl cap. depends on the class. MM with max attb is just as good an MM as lvl 16......

I gotta agree with that. But than again any MM is worthless in RA
