Guild Wars 2

Could someone please tell me the criteria that is met for you to be considered doing something dishonorable?

I got disconnected from the game, because my ISP was having some issues ostensibly, I don’t know what was going on with my connection exactly.

I saw someone in chat say, “Reported.” I then replied, “Who me?” They declaimed, “No, not you. The other guy who gave up because you dc’d.”

Shortly after leaving that arena, I wasn’t allowed to re-que again. I had an one-hour and ten minute timeout. I was filled with ire, but I guess getting disconnected fits the criteria for getting a dishonorable timeout. Which, to a degree, is understandable; however, it can put someone under the de-buff even if there were timed out for an innocuous reason like ISP issues, which is completely unrelated to you ‘rage quitting’.

Yeah, I’m pretty perturbed for the time-out, this is why you get this tl;dr from me. I do understand the presumptions of people perhaps reporting others for disconnecting, because they think they’re rage-quitting. I’m not sure if that is the specific reason I got times out, it’s only conjecture.

Thing is dishonorable is a stackable thing….in other words first time it happens it’s only for a couple mins then it gets longer and longer……if your all the way up to a hour long then there must’ve been other instances your not mentioning

Nahh thats not the worst issue. The worst is when u dc right before the game starts and it doesnt let u relog into the game because it doesnt recognise any of the characters as being in that match.

We have Anet implementing the no toon swapping after match starts to thank for this. Noble cause but stupid implementation due to the unwanted side effects.
