This is absolutely infuriating. I'm sick and tired of my teamates either leaving their characters in the game to get free loot without doing any work, or quitting prematurely for me to have to slave an activity by myself (Mainy strikes and Crucible). Here are some changes I recommend. If you agree with them, please support this post: 1) Absolutely slaughter idle time. Black Ops 3 nailed this concept PERFECTLY. If you are gone for more than 2-3 minute, the game kicks your player. Absolutely no more then that. Also, rubberbanding controllers no longer should be a thing. 2) If you leave a quit on a losing team or leave a strike that is not half way over, you are given a first offence warning. This also includes the minute idle timer. If you commit a second offence within a certain time stamp, you are banned from the specified ACTIVITY for a small amount of time (An hour or so) so you can "Cool off", as the message would say. If you continue to leave matches after this second offence and temporary restriction, you will now be banned from the activity until the weekly reset. If you continue to not heed any of the previous warnings and are a nuissance to the gaming expirience of others, your account will be locked out of the activity until notified in the future. After that, matchmaking for that activity will be lengthened as you will be attempted to be placed with guardians with low light levels and/or exhibit similar behavior. [b][i][u]MY FAVORITE BY FAR[/u][/i][/b] A "dunce meter" is now added next to every players name on the forums and is required on all LFG sites. Depending on how many offences you comit, the meter will show others what kind player you are in the aspect of either quitting prematurely, or being idle on multiple occasions. If you manage to reach the bottom of the dunce meter, a snarky comment is now tagged to the end of their gamertag on any of these websites. Beautiful. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMO, these consequences aren't even strict enough. [b][i][u]SIGN. IF. YOU. AGREE[/u][/i][/b] RID THIS COMMUNITY OF FILTH. [spoiler]Edit: Post below on how friendly players should be rewarded. Maybe their Dunce meter can say: "This Guardian is a legend"[/spoiler] Edit: For all the pessimists saying "I have a life, Children, etc," this system IS NOT SUPPOSED AFFECT YOU. It's supposed to affect and apply consequences to people who are constantly interfering with the gaming expirience of others. Think of it like this- That guy you just abandoned during that strike, what if he also has a life just like you (as hard at it is to believe). You're saying your life is more important then the one you just abandoned? That person, for your information, probably also has children, a life, and other duties to attend to. Maybe they only get an hour a day and you are wasting that precious time! At least they have their priorities straightened! If you need to answer the Pizza guy at the door, that's cool and all. Have a child to take care of? Beautiful. However, if this is constantly interferring with the lives of others who are just as busy as you and only have a set amount of time to play, then you should recieve the consequences for your actions. Saying that "I have a life so I have the right to abandon the precious time of others," is Brazen. Can't handle the time? Don't commit the crime.
