Iron Banner Dropouts

So, I'm sure people are well aware that the Iron Banner did not come as advertised. There are clearly still some level advantages that are disabled, its just crucible with mostly higher level people, etc. But I've found a different issue, one that probably has affected a good number of players. Because you only gain Iron Banner rep for winning, the losing team tends to quit if they are too far behind. Which is great if you are on the winning team and just want easy rep. But if you are on the losing team and want to stick it out, too bad. Your gonna lose 6v2 matches as team balancing doesn't exist. This situation can also suck for the winning team. The fights become one sided and boring, and All those challenging Iron Banner bounties actually get tougher when you start competing with your 5 teammates to get those precious kills. I understand the Iron Banner is meant to be a tournament of sorts where the best of the best go head to head in all out warfare. Where only the ones who come out on top get the gold, or glimmer in this case. But I think a small amount of rep should be given to the losing side like in the Crucible. Although I doubt Bungie will make any changes in the short week the Iron Banner will be out. All we can hope is that the losers stick it out for the long run and try to take the match back. I personally hate to leave mid match but when theres 5 min on the clock and its 6v2 or worse, I don't like to get slaughtered over and over. To any who read this, share any opinions or stories of you dominating over the waining team or a horror story of how you and your small fire team got crushed because all your allies left you to die.
