  •  If someone quits early from a ranked match, (none / 0)

    in ANY game, they should have their account banned.  That's MY opinion, haha (but seriously, I would love if that happened).

    I'm feeling California and looking Minnesota.

    •  LOL (none / 0)

       but sometimes the people with crappy connections just lag out, so that would suck to get banned for lagging out LOL.

    •  I hate to break it to everyone... (none / 0)

      but sometimes I have to leave a game, whether it be my sister needing something (falling down the stairs, hasn't done that in awhile) or some kind of emergency with the need of calling 911 (I've had the ambulance at my house more than I'd like to know) my mom is diabetic and sometimes needs instantaneous assistance... should i be punished for leaving a game early because of outside sources i have absolutely no control over of?

      I agree with grymm, just make the stats dont count, and maybe kick me down 100 spots on the leaderboard, whatever i dont care.

      •  Boxin, that is why I suggest a Penalty Box (none / 0)

        It has no effect on your overall stats, nor would it affect your achievements.  As I stated early, the experience thing Bungie tried has absolutely zero effect on quitters, so why bother with that.  

        If you have an emergence, surely you won't mind if you aren't allowed to join a game for 10 minutes starting from the moment you quit.  You are probably busy taking care of things for that long at least anyway.  What it would do, however, is make it impossible for game quitters, to just leave a game because they were losing, or didn't like the map.  10 minutes would be too big a penalty for those babies to handle.  It would be easier and more enjoyable to just play the game for that amount of time.  You know what I mean?

        P.S.  Johann and Timothy had a GREAT time gaming with you and Degrees and the other Gearheads.  Cheers, my little Canadian brotha!

      •  no, Boxin, (none / 0)

        that's what they do now. If you leave, the stats don't count.
