Well its been months so i came back and what do you know I am still getting banned from quitting 1 game even if its just my first time back. Seriously 343 fix your match making!

It sounds like it's working as intended. You SHOULD get banned for quitting 1 game. There's nothing 343 can do to fix your sense of sportsmanship.

I quit the freaking game because my teammates werent even playing!. They were all afking the whole game. So whats the point in playing if no one is helping me period!? God I hate people like you who support a broken system.

It sounds like it would make more sense to be in favor of stricter AFK penalties than to be in favor of lesser quit penalties.

you know what? I am done........I am done with this stupid game! I am tired of the ban system being changed every time and I am tired playing with morons all the freaking time!. This game has pissed me off so many times that I don't understand why I keep giving it many chances.

The only changes to the ban system since its implementation have been to make it more lenient. Yes, you still get a ban for your first quit, unless half of your team has already quit. You never get banned in that situation. Also, the length of time you get banned has been reduced from what it was when the quit bans first rolled out.

What I dont understand is why the hell they would change it to being 1 quit you get banned instead of too many quits its a ban. that type of bans from quitting was in mcc since day one and now its 1 quit its a ban. its so stupid.

No sé si sea mi internet,ya que juego otros juegos en línea y probé con dejarlo así durante horas y no paso nada.

That's a bit of a harsh reaction to a system that you haven't fully understood why it is in place.

Prior to 1 quit = 1 ban system, quitting was very rampant.
This system was implemented to curb that, and it's generally worked.

However, I am in favor of giving us 1 free quit per day, because I don't think that's unreasonable for the majority of players.
Sometimes it's a crazy unfair match.
Sometimes you lag out.
Sometimes something comes up and you have to log off.

Being allowed to quit once a day without a ban would take these situations into account, without penalizing those people, and isn't exploitable - as you only get one.

Rather than simply saying "I'm done" it's better to understand what's going on, and try to propose something better.
Giving 1 freebie is my attempt at that.

(The afk thing has gotten worse partly because people want XP - which is reduced in frequency now due to the requirement to earn medals - and afk'ing is also a product of the 1 quit = 1 ban issue. Allowing 1 free quit per day would likely resolve a good portion of AFKers, IMO).

Well many have proposed ideas and many have told 343 that the current system is booty cheeks. And nothing has changed. It's still really unfair and heavy handed. For Christ sake this thread is 90 pages long. The frustration level with the new ban system is at 100%. Treating everyone like a team quitting baby helps no one and is equivalent of the MCC threatening to jump off a building. It's gonna die so much faster if this system stays.

Personally, I believe 3 quits MAX should be free. If that's too much for some people, too bad. Grow a backbone and try to ease up on the game. 1-2 still seems harsh. Especially with the servers sometimes being very unstable, the ridiculously out of balance matchmaking, and the rampant afkers.

I suspect they look at the data and have been pretty happy with the results, which is why they haven't changed anything.
If they saw a lot of people stop playing after having the short ban for a single quit, they'd probably adjust things.

Unfortunately we don't get the total population data, so we can't know if the population is less or more or the same since they implemented the ban system.
I imagine it's more, or the same - because if it were less they'd have changed something.
Now, that's not to say it couldn't be better - because I certainly think it could.

Why jump straight to 3? Starts creeping into the area where people just quit too much. That essentially gives you 4 quits per day with barely any ban (5 mins ban on the 4th quit).

Start with 1 freebie, see how people react - I bet you this thread would go pretty quiet if we got 1 freebie.
