Getting Free Wins (no opponents) through network manipulation isn't okay: here's an easy solution for Bungie.

Most of us who are veterans of the game know that when you destiny track someone and see 7 straight games of 0.00 k/d, 0 kills, 0 deaths, for the whole fireteam, and they have no opponents for all of those games.... something's fishy. Recently my clan has had a few people join with this status, and when we notice it, we boot them- cheaters aren't fun to play with. This issue has been happening at least since Forsaken, I didn't play comp or trials very much in Y1 to say what happened then. I know cheating is something Bungie wants to address in the coming seasons, and I have a really simple solution. When you load into a game and there are no opponents, don't give free glory; don't give a free Trials win. Legendary engrams, blues, whatever? Sure, thats fine. The state of the game right now by permitting this hurts the competitive integrity. The drawback here is that if you legitimately load into a game alone (has happened a small handful of times), then you kind of get your time wasted. But my hypothesis is that these 'legitimate' empty load-ins are a result of an illegitimate empty load-in done my cheaters. If we de-incentivize this type of cheating, then 'legitimate' empty load-ins won't occur either (assuming my hypothesis is correct of course).
