in another thread I wrote this, but anet should see.

  1. present join / requeue / leave queue options.
  2. 10 seconds to choose or it requeues you
  3. if it auto requeued you 3 times it boots you from queue with a message
  4. when you click join it doesn’t actually join the game it just shows a message that it is waiting for other players and you can continue doing what you were doing.
  5. when all 10 players have clicked join, then it moves all players into match immediately.
  6. if not enough players clicked join (or an uneven number if you prefer) after x amount of seconds (maybe 30) then it requeues all awaiting players with a message that some players didn’t join in time so everyone is requeued.

edit: just to be clear, this is when your queue pops. you have option to join or not, and no game begins unless there are full teams.

7. After a player leaves the undone game, the game is over. Winning team gets their victory stats, the losing team’s stats aren’t recorded (except the leaver). The leaver is banned from participating in stats games for 2 days.
/or implementing “surrender\concede” vote mechanism, so the game is proceeding

that would change a lot. now after some person leaves the game people just lay on the ground afk waiting for their stats ruining. both teams waste time to get undeserved stats.

i don’t like this. room for exploitation by teams about to lose taking turns leaving games so rest of team doesn’t suffer loss. also being banned for 2 days from pvp because you left 1 time is way too harsh.
