Guild Wars 2

Just curious, anyone else want one? If so please drop a response here.

Trying to understand if this is a limited to a few people interested in this function or if there are a good number.

Not even looking for it to do anything but at least its a sense of hope that the issue in ranked might be addressed.

3.5 years… we have been asking for it.

Issue of ranked is not only AFK but, bots. There are legit reasons why some people AFK. realize this, if I am disinterested in continuing a game because of any reason when I am solo queuing, no punitive measures can extract anything productive out of me. Hence, AFK report function is just wastage of data and extra work for ANET as they will have to review and verify the reports to act on. And none of that adds any extra revenue for ANET.

tl;dr – Not gonna happen.

That’s a Report function, but an in-game voting function acts differently but with the same end result of dishonor or even a temp ban.

Every conpetitive game, moba, cs:go, starcraft, etc has an in-game Voting option that “reports” players. After majority votes win, the system will disciplin the user based on his previous infractions or simply dishonors him if its the first infraction. Doesn’t send a report for devs to read. There are no other resources, other than coding this program, for devs to spend on.

Tl;dr – This can and should happen.

1. GW1 had that. It was widely abused. ANET won’t go back there.
2. GW2 mixes SoloQ with Team Q in single match up. There is no stopping a bunch of duo, trio or guild group mass reporting Solo’ers to keep them away from matches.
3. AFK function won’t resolve many of the issues why people AFK in a match.

Last but, not the least GW2 is NOT a competitive game. It never was and it never will be.

I agree with most of your points but I disagree with GW2 not being competitive. For the sake of the argument, I’ll reference you to the season 1 Finals; those were pretty competitive. Ironically, season 2 pretty much look like the season 1 finally, where EU dominated NA with the expecting of Abjured. Futhermore, most games were pretty much one sided like what we have now. But my point still remains, GW2 sPvP can be/is competitve.

How many people played in ESL? Next how many players actually care about ESL?

Interestingly enough, none of the players who actually play at that capability level have to ever worry about an AFK report function because they don’t Solo Q in a competition.

I am sorry but, your argument reference is invalid.
