Why do you quit games?

Please copy and paste the following list into your reply in this thread (or quote this post), and type an X in any box that applies to reasons that you frequently quit games. Check as many items as applies to you. (This is for Multiplayer, not Firefight)

Later, I'm going to add up all the tallies and determine the most common causes of quitting in Matchmaking.

Those are the only reasons why I would quit, besides, bad lag usually host boots everyone including myself, betrayals ruin the game so a team full of betraying c#nts is no fun, and neither is getting spawnkilled because my team perpetually failed to move onto the next phase of invasion.

Usually though I'm clever enough to not get spawnkilled, so I hide and watch the entirety of my team, minus myself, go negative.

Well you can see what I've selected as my major causes of quitting. I even explained why. Is that not good enough for you? You did after all notice it, so why should I repost something that you've already understood?

Maps I won't play:
Uncaged/The cage, Paradiso, The community made maps in Team Slayer, Spire, small maps in team snipers.
Gametypes I won't play:
1Flag CTF, AR starts on Breakpoint (Seriously why would you vote for this), AR starts when the choice for same map with DMR starts is available.
Reasons I ragequit:
I'm too tired to be playing, but I play anyway, resulting in the eventual ragequit for: doing bad, unbearable lag, armorlockers etc.
Other:
Full parties regardless of tryhard status.

Note: I don't always quit in these situations, but most of the time I do.
