Dont you hate it when people quit during matchmaking? Usually because their team is losing or they don't want their highest skill to go down. I think in reach Bungie should make a system where if you quit alot you lose more than just one exp they do at the moment

e.g the first few times you quit you don't lose any exp.
then you start losing two exp and then three and so on. This would be reset every few months. This would hopefully stop people quitting during matchmaking. What do you think?

What about people who have to quit out multiple times? Maybe some things just turned up? You have to also take them into consideration.

If they have to quit multiple times then they lose exp,simple as that, but this is to stop those who just quit because they don't want to lose.

How can computers tell the difference?

thats not what i am saying. Anyone who quits multiple times should lose exp as it makes the game worse for your team

"They let me pick... did I ever tell you that? Choose whichever Spartan I wanted. You know me. I did my research. Watched as you became the soldier we needed you to be. Like the others you were strong and swift and brave, a natural leader. But you had something they didn't. Something no one saw but me. Can you guess? Luck."

How about you get a free "Quiting point" a day, which means you can quit with no xp losses. This is for the people who have to quit because they have to go do somthing. Then after you use that point you lose -1 for quitting, the next is -2, then -3, then -4, etc.

But some things can't be helped. What if my Grandmother had a heart attack? Am I going to finish the game, than run up to the Hospital? No, I won't.

Why make the punishment far worse? It's fine the way it is. Just send a bad player review to the quitters, and move on.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Quitting from a game does not protect your TrueSkill level lowering.

I think if that happened you wouldnt think "Oh no, i can't quit as I will lose exp i'll have to finish the game"

I like Torch 105's idea
