Day 4 of posting until Respawn implements a functional abandon penalty.

Title says it all.  I will be posting a thread daily until Respawn implements an acceptable abandon penalty in unranked matches. I'm getting really tired of people leaving when knocked, quitting in ...

@blkarmphoenix I honestly enjoy the irony in your words or the words of @Daze623. You don't like being put into disadvantageous spots by team mates who leave the game. You feel unfairly treated. Nothing wrong with that.

Yet you seem to be acceptive towards people who put us into unfavorable situations and don't want to realize that it's those people who make us leave in the first place. I find this a little hypocritical if anything.

Then - honestly - I wish for report options like "Bad team mates". This option will likely be used a lot, but at least I can do something about the team mates that straight up refuse to play as a team.

Or - Just give me solo mode, then I don't have to bother with either.

@Peri_Longbow_plz what do you mean acceptive? Just because we want leavers punished doesn't mean we condone trolls/griefers. It's just that we experience more leavers than we experience trolls, there's nothing hypocritical about it. First and foremost trolls and griefers should have been a reportable offense to begin with anyway I don't know why they don't have this in their report system.

    I wonder how many leavers leave to avoid deaths. Think about the ones that only get knocked and leave before the death. Maybe if leaving when knocked counted as a death people wouldnt leave as much?

    I think lots leave just because of this.

      @hayhor There's a lot of people that still leave to avoid deaths. Just today in the same match I got to watch a Wraith portal (because we third partied her) stand completely still, then turn into a death box. The second guy got respawned literally 20 meters away from that Wraith, and as Octane, tried to Q and hop the ledge while quitting. I tagged them for 3 damage with a Charge Rifle as they hopped, and was very confused for a second as to why he was so low health after just being respawned.

      I do it too sometimes, not expressly to increase K/D, but moreso because I can't stand the people I'm playing with anymore. Did it just now on my last game with some pre-made who left me to 1v3 and would only join the fight after I went down.
