You're incorrect sir. I am only playing for valor and dailies, however, I accept the social contract when entering a WZ. A contract that I will see through to the end- even if it means that particular match will not produce as much or as well, were I to quit the match.

It is a measure of character to see something through to it's conculsion- even in a game.

Rather a leecher than a coward who leaves every WZ where his team is weaker until he finds an opponent weak enough to have the guts to fight. Some battlemaster you are... but hey at least you're honoust about how you farmed that rank cowardly.

I leave WZs. If it's going to be a slaughter, you can tell after the initial engagement somtimes even before just looking at your pug or the other four that zoned in w/ you group.

I'm not farm content....sorry.

These self-righteous little whiners who quit every game that they would have to work hard to win don't deserve anything other than a deserter debuff. When you quit a warzone that you think you might lose, you're basically saying, "I'm entitled to win every game that I play. I'm way more important than anyone else and I would rather screw over tons of other people by quitting than to suck it up and actually learn that you can't always win everything in life.".

If everyone quits when they're going to lose, NOBODY would ever win!! If people automatically quit when they get behind, and everyone on a team actually does it, the replacer wouldn't work quickly enough to stop the WZ from ending prematurely, especially as the new people that replace in also leave when they see what they're getting into.

At that point, instead of PVP you have a queueing game for gear. I don't want to queue for gear, I want to PVP for it. And if you disagree, then get out of PVP.
Psst

The point of warzones isn't competition. It's Epeen flexing, xp, and dailies/weeklies.

This thread is disgusting. And to think most of you guys would call yourselves "real" PvP'ers, when you can't even play a full match.

As for the "guys who only stick around to get medals", my Marauder doesn't have that option. I play because PvP is a challenge, and it's fun. Doesn't matter what side you're on. Win some, lose some.

Most of you need to get over yourselves. You're not entitled to win every game.

I am if I am better than the opponent. Hopefully rated WZs should fix this, but I shouldn't be playing with no-gear, no-skill players.

Yeah, because there is no other motivation for the Astros to play. Oh whats that you say. The average paycheck for a Major League player is 3 Million Dollars a year? Now the Astros its probably 1 Million since they're not the Yankees. So it's not like they Astros players are going to work for the love of the damn game come game 145 when they're 22 games out of first. They go because they make an asinine amount of money for what they do.

Whereas SWTOR players actually PAY to play their game.

I get my daily done in about an hour. And I never quit.

Remember, after you get full champion gear your dailies won't matter. And now what are you going to do? Everyone hates you for the leaver you are. You think they don't remember?

Amazingly, warzones are not 1v1!
