STOP THE QUITTING (PvP)
The only thing that I am truly sick of in PvP matches is spawning in to matches where the team I am dropped into has no chance of winning, because by the time I get there the match is a foregone conclusion. If I had a nickel for every time I entered a match with 2 minutes to play and a 5000+ point deficit; well, I would have a lot of nickels. Lost my metaphor there.
There are 3 ways to stop punishing players for entering PvP, as far as I can see.
1) A mercy rule that prevents matchmaking from adding players to the match after a certain point. I suggest when there are less than 3 minutes on the timer or when the winning side is more than 5000 points ahead.
2) Stop matchmaking from adding players to an ongoing match, period. It punishes the side that loses a player to disconnection errors, but, well, life is tough.
3) My favorite- DISABLE THE OPTION TO GO TO ORBIT DURING AN ACTIVE MATCH. Don't let players quit just because they are losing and want to "preserve their K/D ratio," which is BS anyway. If all you care about is your K/D, go play Rumble, where you don't have a team depending on you participating. Or quit just because they are losing the 3rd or 4th match in a row. So what? It will be over soon. Hang around until the reward screen, you might get that Gjallarhorn you've been crying for.
QUITTERS NEVER WIN. Quit quitting. Bungie, please stop enabling the quitters.
EDIT: My new favorite (based on a reply to this post): Quitting a match gives a limited time debuff which locks you out of ALL crucible modes for the duration. Also, add a "quit" statistic to your K/D and Win/Lose record.

I had this problem during the Iron Banner. Played a game where my team lost 8000 to 20000 (I took 3000 of our points). At the end of the match I was taken out of this lobby and put in a new one. I managed 2 kills before the end of the match (about 30-45 seconds). Not a problem I thought, I will get them next time. Not so, I was taken out of this lobby and had to wait about 3 or 4 minutes before being put into another lobby. I can only assume it was because people had quit at various times but I couldn't understand why I was punished for it.

I used to be the guy that if thrown into the middle of the match, I would endure regardless of much we are up or down. Now if I get thrown into one I just quit, there is no incentive to finish. If I see a legit lag switcher I will quit. I should not have to be punished for these. Bungie needs to take the high road on the quitter situation. Offer a bigger variety of playlists like a 'no pre made fire team list' or 'no orbs list' etc. Have enough playlists so that more people have something better to suit their playstyle.

6 RepliesOption 3 is a non starter. People play the game for their own enjoyment. No fun can be had in suffering through a one sided game for the sake of the other team.

2 RepliesI had to quit a match yesterday because I got match made into a game where I am assuming a 5 man Fireteam was just quitting out. I was left alone against 6 other players and got swarmed. Thanks but no, I'm not sticking around to get shot gunned by 6 guys controlling 3 control points.

2 RepliesMost time I quit is, because they are lagging over the map.
-
3 RepliesFix the lag, bad connections and exploits first until then ill quit out as i see fit, after i finish reporting the cheaters
-
5 RepliesI got a better suggestion I quit matches if my "team" is getting pubstomped and you play with your morals "which will ensure you lose"
-
I leave pvp matches alot, I generally play solo so when the other team takes all 3 points within the 1st min because they are partied up with good communication, and my team tends to think the best course of action is rushing B on the exact same route every single time they spawn!!!! So I'm outta there! I don't fancy dying constantly for the next 10 mins, that's not my idea of a enjoyable pvp experience. Or I leave because of poor connection. If they made a play list that had game modes with no fireteam or party options, that would be awesome for me.
-
ppl have the right to leave when they want. disable the going to orbit, then ppl will close the game and just reload.

1 ReplyPvp is ass. Lag gt bullshit run by three guns and supers. How is it fun.

2 RepliesI think people who quit PvP matches should get a 1 hour debuff that doesn't allow them to enter any mode of crucible and a new statistic of abandons should be kept track of.
-
Me personally I could give a rats ass about quitting I'll quit when I want to I finish my exotic bounty I'm leaving I have no lobe for losers who think o my precious k/d you guys are losers in life if that's your biggest concern it is a flapping game morons deal with it or go cry to your mommy

7 RepliesNot going to happen. This is not a problem that Bungie is going to be able to [i]punish[/i] their way out of. It is a problem because Bungie makes no effort to separate set teams from teams of match made randoms. Which results in non-competitive matches when the skill lvl are about the same...and trouncings when they aren't. So people quit these matches for the same reason you hate being dropped into the middle of them. [i]No one wants to play in a situation where the deck is stacked, and they're getting dealt from the bottom of it.[/i] Bungie has to fix its matchmaking before doing [i]anything[/i] like what you're asking.

I guess we could say that this is quite a nickel [spoiler]im so sorry for that[/spoiler]
-
Oh but remember to add matchmaking to Trials cause we want all this is the new playlist too.
-
3 RepliesAgreed. This last iron banner drove me nuts with spawning into 1/2 completed matches.
-
When I am dropped into a match where the enemy team is 5000 or more points ahead I just sit at the spawn and wait till the match is over.

Me and my friend and 4 randoms on our team made the enemy fireteam of 4 rage quit lol.

Nerf the animal planet lessons first.

2 Repliesif you get dropped in with two minutes to play take the loss along with two crucible marks. besides, bungie usually drops exotics in those stuations so you might just get lucky.

2 RepliesSays your mom! Ooooooooooooh!

Lord Shaxx wouldn't approve of a mercy rule. A deserter penalty would be helpful though.
-
3 RepliesI agree with the first part, i always get thrown into LATE matches with 3 players left down by 5000+. And then I quit immediately. I shouldnt have to be forced to take a loss for other ppl quitting a match they started. Now, if i start a match and we losing badly, ill lose with the team. Disabling "go to orbit" helps but so much as one can still shut off the console. I think bungie should punish quitters with a permanent emblem, add a automatic win if more than two players quit on the opposite team, and also stop matchmaking once a person quits.

9 RepliesIf I had a nickel for every time I got dropped into a match and helped bring them back to a win... Shut up, git gud.

4 RepliesI'm fine with quitters in PvP, but I think you should lose your medallions if you quit an iron banner match.
