When people disconnect rather than abandon a match it often means simple connection problem and not rage quitting. They could have simply left the game and continued playing in another lobby if it had been rage quitting. Unless they stated clearly in the match that they would leave because they had no fun, you cannot be sure whether it was truly rage quitting. My clan was not long ago accused of rage quitting during a match because some of our European members had connection issues and a whole ship disconnected because of that, We tried to explain it during match, but if people immediately assume ragequitting, it's really difficult.

I suppose it has the same purpose as my rants. Those are 5 guys that disconnected. I find it hard to believe that all of these players had connection problems at the same time. So it's safe to assume that they just left. Knowing OP and knowing that he is a competent player makes it very unlikely that he was the cause of them quitting. That leaves incompetence at the clan's behalf. This is just the start, give it a few months and it will be common.

Most of them were low levels with the exception of the second pilot and I don't realy consider a level 6 too competent, when I was level 6 pilot I was still learning the game.

So, my point is, give the guys a break, they probably had an issue and needed to leave and if they left because they were having no fun, then maybe they didn't like the map's game mode? Why do we need a thread ranting about it?


TL;DR version: Nobody cares.

*sad trombone*

I'm deeply sorry for your loss.

Anyways, I know how you feel, but it's a price you have to pay for team-based games. I don't really see what you mean.

I dislike rage quitters as much as the next man, but I think there are policies against publicly shaming them in this forum. We could setup a new webpage to post trolls, rage quitters, and other undesirable players.

The attitude you've displayed on the forums is far worse than an doomsday "they're coming" scenario you've been able to come up with so far.

Lots of "clans" in game that aren't on the forums. I just pool them as "Multi-game" and continue flying.

Yup that would probably describe this quite well.
