Guild Wars 2

Dear ArenaNet,

I would like to point out a fact that so many before me has done, yet as of today it has not been addressed at all.

People leave games more and more often and there are absolutely no negative consequences coming out of it for them. Yesterday I had 3 matches in a row when someone decided that it was enough and left the match. 3 in a row. This morning I had another 2 and I could keep going…
Just because the match does not start the way they want or we have a rough matchup, they decide to jump off the ship and do something else for that 10 minutes or so while we get roflstomped. Cause that is literally the only consequence – you have to wait out the match you just jumped out from to play the next matchup.

From today on me and 2 of my mates will refuse to play a single ranked game because of it, as it got extremely frustrating that one could do such a thing without any consequences. The fact that you dare to call it “competitive” game mode is just beyond laughable…
I know that is probably not a scary thing to you as you have thousands of players still playing the game, but I simply refuse to support a game and its developers who do not care about such huge factors at all.

Please refrain from the standard kitten. I don’t care if you will introduce something with HoT. The problem is very much present NOW and we need a fix NOW.
Not in months.
The fact that the developer community cares so little about communicating with the playerbase is more than disheartening aswell. People told you countless times about this (and other issues) aswell, yet there are no official statements from the dev team addressing these concerns at all.

Oh, and before someone comes with the “one could get dc’d too, ya know” argument, let me tell you: it is a Massive Multiplayer Online game that requires internet connection. If you still use dial-up or just have a terrible connection in general, do not expect to play such a game.
