I dont know if this has been suggested before but...i think an adjustment to dishonerable should be that...since RA matches last 10 minutes, it should be something like...if you leave before 5-7 minutes after it started, then you get dishonerable, because 5-6 minutes in a match after its started...it gets boring...

I dont know if this is a good suggestion or not, so dont flame

bad idea, very bad idea. leave it how it is.

Since 90% of the newbs in RA do not have ANY idea what resigning is or how to do it, i see where you're coming from. It's frustrating. But if i'm having trouble with a team of 3 monks, or if the match is taking forever and clearly going nowhere, i just go afk or something. Not a big deal.

Matches only last, what, 10 minutes max? 5 minutes on some maps.

You're just getting a lot of draws because there's a lot of people using monks to farm glad points this weekend, but normally whenever I go in there, the ratio of long drawn-out games to normal games is really small, small enough that you can generally leave 1 bad game and be confident that you won't run into another for a bit.

/notsigned

High end PvP (ie, GvGs where both sides know what they are doing and are evenly matched) often last for 20-25 miniutes of non-stop fighting with nobody dieing. If you think a 6 miniute long fight is "boring" then I suggest you go back to PvE where you can roll over any mob in 30 seconds.

PvP only gets harder. RA was never meant as an endgame. It was designed as a training ground area. Once you get good enough there, you are supposed to move on to the higher tiers (which is hypocritical of myself to say so). Part of that training towards engame is learning e-management and forcing people to develop builds that have survivability.

/signed

A lot of time people will bring tele sins or runner bars into RA to be annoying... if i want to leave so i dont have to deal with people like this, i should be able to leave.

STOP RESTRICTING MY RIGHT TO LEAVE A-NET!
NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!
ABORTION IS MURDER!
ITS MY BIRTHDAY AND I CAN CRY IF I WANT TO!

And I don't want to deal with people that aren't willing to put any effort into the random arenas yet go there anyway. Running people shouldn't be a problem for your team to kill if you have any idea what you're doing. If you're that bored, tell your team to resign. Believe it or not, people that are sick of runners and don't know how to kill them aren't the only ones who would leave if this was implemented.

I think that sums up the value of your opinion there.. anyone who doesnt agree with you= dumb. I suggest you look in the mirror before firing out the arrogant word at others.

RA is just that Random.. If you want to know what you are going to face, then go do zaishen or pve. If you really go in and cant wait an extra 4 minutes for the match to finish, then deal with the penalty.
Yes we all know there have been many monks this weekend. this will have likely proved counter productive to encouraged people to play RA - but thats an issue for anet to deal with and do something about ( which they wont as its been brought up before).
