And yet, same could be said of those who don't carry their own weight and expect others to do it for them.

When I was leveling alts and had to go through weeks of wearing recruit gear, I never thought people who left the game because they saw a recruit were arrogant or lazy. They put in the time to get geared and prefect their skill and I understand that me being in recruit gear lessens their chances of a victory if the teams are mismatched.

It's their time, they can do with it as they please. I don't expect them to carry me and if I need to go through a long string of losses to get geared better so be it. I would think it would be egotistical from me if I expected those people to stay in and carry me.

Why do people keep on continue the myth of these awesome full Conqueror guys who have nothing to play for quitting the game? Not to mention these mythical players are always too dumb to actually quit a game where you're behind 490-500 on Alderaan, as any good player should be able to tell you that you're going to just spend the next 15 minutse fighting in middle and never coming close to winning. How come they don't quit then? It's literally the biggest waste of time I can think of. There are times where I'm on the side with the 500 and I contemplated quitting rather than taking another 15 minutes to win because it's really not worth the effort.

If you actually have a reputation as a quitter you should ask around what other people think of you. You'll probably find people are waiting for you to quit so that they'd actually have a chance of winning. They're certainly not saying "Oh no this guy quit how can we possibly make up for him?"

It's funny that for all the high opinion quitters have of themselves, they apparently don't think they can carry other players to victory. You'd think if people think highly of themselves, it should be like 'let me show you how this is done'. Carrying others is one of the surest sign of elitism, after all. When I finish a WZ with more DPS than the next top 2 guys put together while leading in every other statistical category and won the game, I can say 'yep that was all me guys!'. Apparently quitters do not think they're good enough to do that.

Gains For Leaving a Warzone
1) I get out of same queue rotation
2) I can actually enjoy my time
3) I can get another MTN Dew out of the fridge

Gains for staying in warzone
1) Valor (I Was Maxed)
2) Experience (I was Maxed including Legacy)
3) Credits (this ones a joke, I mean I can make more credits farming the 3 elites In Blackhole mission where u free the little people from the cages)

So yes quitting has way better Gains then staying

Because that's what matters in objective based PvP amirite?

All statistical categories includes objectives. In fact that's usually the easiest to top if you know what you're doing.

I don't see the point of the 'queue dodging' argument, unless your server is next to dead so you know exactly who is queueing at what time. If there's something I learned about PUGs is that there's always one that's worse than the one you thought that couldn't possibly be any worse. You can easily end up dodging your side's uber team or the enemy's side worst PUG.

Yea that is full of the facts ^, but the sad truth is the quitters don't care what other people think of them.

People quit for selfish reasons without no warning and without a care.

The conclusion of any game is effort without quitters ruining a game, that is the basis of SWTOR PVP.

Years from now people will ask "What was or is SWTOR PVP like?"

I will say, it depends on effort or how many people quit the match.
