I don't know how many times I've been rushing around the map to win, only to find out there is now 2-3 of us left because people have backed out to prevent the loss.
People leave control when they have 2 bases to our 1 but are 0 points ahead.
This is ridiculous! I've had the same thing happen over and over again, more so with Iron Banner than any other.
My suggestion, punish them! Prevent them from queuing for anther match for 10 minutes. This way they are better off staying and at least trying rather than wimping out to get another game quicker. There has to be something done or PvP just becomes more of a joke.
Agree? Or disagree? Let the votes show their power!
*Edit*
This is assuming Bungie can tell the difference between disconnected players and leavers, which they should be able to.
There is a clear indicator of people leaving. 'Go to orbit' is somebody clearly leaving intentionally.
There will be other punishments that can be implemented, a 10 minute delay to start a new game was just an example.

The punishment is no rewards. Just think, if your playing iron banner and you stay when they leave you can still work on bounties and get your token, your still going to get what you would have for winning or close to it. The people that leave are making a mistake of giving up free XP at a later time. Unless they disconnect, power goes out, they have to go for whatever reason for somthing more important. Just enjoy the game.
