I just wish someone looked at pvp-related reports. There are players who willingly afk and throw matches because there’s pip gain on loss either way. By willingly I mean they sit in home base the entire match and talk about how they don’t care about the match or team because they still get rewards, but they are ruining the game for anyone unfortunate to get matched with them. This practice does not give them dishonor because they are technically considered participants in match even if they do nothing, just run their mouth (or keyboard) and results in a heavy collateral damage to those on their team. A -38 takes 3 wins to recover and that’s a harsh punishment for something we have no control of, but YOU do, Anet!
Please find a way to address this issue. It’s persistent and not isolated to a single player unfortunately, I’ve seen a few do this on either my team or enemy’s. If you don’t want to ban them from all areas of the game it’s understandable, but they should either be denied progress in tournament or restricted in ranked PvP during seasons because of such actions.
