Option to Disable being REVIVED!!!

There are game modes in GW2 where reviving other players is a tactical thing (helping your team to achieve victory) like team vanquish and so on... But there are other game modes like Turf Takeover that revive can be a downright annoying thing for the person who is getting revived because in most cases that player was in a bad spot prior to his demise and when he gets revived his chances of survival are really slim because he is STUCK in that bad spot with his abilities not being refreshed (which is a great thing for balancing purposes). I am not suggesting by any means that a player who is getting revived should have his abilities refreshed BUT i do suggest that there should be an option in the menu that can be manually be turned on and off that should allow the player to choose if he wants to be revived by his teammates or not. As a player who cares about his KD I find this thing absolutely necessary. Even if someone is not in the same boat as me I find it really hard to believe that this simple suggestion of mine would not be GREATLY appreciated by the WHOLE COMMUNITY. Give this post some exp guys so the devs notice it. Thank you for your time reading this and have a great day!

    I stream PVZ GW 2 and sometimes I'm distracted with chat and get revive and die instantly. They need to implement a accept just like in Battle Field 3 and 4.

    That option is pretty much there as you can choose to respawn right away most times before someone can revive you.

    Just respawn if you don't want to be revived. Easy as that or turn on your mic and tell the player to back off.

    This option of yours is NOT GREATLY APPRECIATED BY THE COMMUNITY.

    Completely disagree with this suggestion.

    If you don't want to be revived then respawn before someone revives you it's as simple as that. You aren't gonna help your team much by worrying about your own K/D though

    As several others have mentioned, once you get vanquished after just a couple of seconds you have the option to respawn, and that option remains even when you are being actively revived by a teammate.

    Granted, if a Sunflower or a Scientist is Erving you it happens pretty quickly but you still have the option to abort the revive and simply respawn- unless a Healer class is on you instantly reviving you so quickly that it doesn't allow enough time for the respawn option to pop up you aren't obligated to let the revive finish once it does appear.

    That is exactly my point when a healer class is xp whoring reviving you in the worst possible spot you cant do *... and when i get 15KD in almost every game i know i am helping my team since there are no players (alive) that can contest my teammates...  Of course i am not talking about the regular revive from any other class other than sunflower and scientist

    I dont even understand why you are being so offensive about this since i am suggesting an option that gives ANYONE THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE between getting revived or not. It is not like i am suggesting revival should be banned from the game or something... And if a sunflower or scientist is an EXP * that is something that should be adressed in the game and it is really SIMPLE. Other Fps games even though they have the same mechanic (that you can respawn instead of waiting to be revived) they still have the option installed. I am starting to believe that everyone who replied to my post is a healer class exp *... I really dont want to be rude but i dont see ANY HARM to what i am suggesting... It is COMPLETELY up to the player to decide...

    I think the posters are just saying that the option already exists to revive shortly after you are vanquished.

    As to the KD and EXP * those are play styles that people choose. Generally, everything benefits the team. Even crazy me launching my citron ball at garden center.

    I've been complaining about this since GW 1. They should have the option to accept a revive just like in Battle Field 3 and 4.
