So I had really bad day on my thief last night. So bad that there was one map I had lowest score by a long shot (imagine … rest of the guys having 100+ points and me having around 30-40). The kills simply didn’t happen like they used to. My RNGesus traits/sigils seemingly never proc’ed at the right time etc etc etc.

And it got me thinking. The games where I lost, my teammates blamed me for the loss (pugs) even though I was decapping most of the time.

What’s stopping these guys from “thumbing me down” all the time because we’ve lost the game and they are salty about it? How does the dishonor system work? Does ANet supervises the “thumbing down” or it’s an automatic system and we get punished when we reach a certain threshold of thumbs down?

I’m asking because I had a streak of bad plays for like 3-4 games. I did not PvP back when we had dishonour system so I’m not sure how it works exactly.

Will I be punished for having a bad day in PvP?

I don’t think the dishonor system still exists, It just so happens that on some days you might just have the worst luck with match ups.

Dishonor is being brought back in some way with HoT.

It’s already a topic / request to allow players to “dishonor” their teammates for cases like some1 saying “i gona afk this out” or trash talking their team and doing nothing, ofc this would bring justice.

The other side of the coin is your case, when an angry loser team starting to blame each other, and the stupidest thing is to look at the points table, if there is a mate with you on the point after a kill, the tanky stays to cap it and the faster moving leaves to the other points results in low score even if you carried your team.

There is no perfect system I don’t always wana be judged by my team on my gameplay but I also want some way to punish those who giving up a match without real reason.

Hope ANet will find the golden middle way.
