[quote]Why are people quitting all the time? And what can you do to stop it? Can you ban them? This is a tough one. We can't ban people for quitting, because we can't force them to play. It's annoying, it's lame, but it's not cheating and we're not in charge of their games. It's human nature. They don't like a map, they quit. They don't like losing, they quit. They got off to a bad start, they quit. We ARE looking at ways to mediate the problem, but a good example of our dilemma is this: If you were playing, and your wife went into labor, you quit and you get back and we've banned you from matchmaking? You're pissed! Not only that, but now you have a BABY. Which requires feeding and probably wants to go to a party school to do some binge drinking.[/quote] I have a solution (sorry if this has been posted before): If someone quits in the middle of a game, lock them out for 10-20 minutes. Simple. If they are quitting just because they don't feel like playing that map, or they are losing, chances are they plan to start a new match right away. Don't let them, thus deterring them from quitting. If they are quitting for a legitimate reason: wife goes into labour, spilled hot coffee on yourself, phone call, whatever... chances are you don't plan to get right back in immediately after you quit, so a 10-20 minute lock out is not a big deal. What do you think? Will Bungie people read this post or should I email my suggestion to someone directly?
