Quitting is an art for me in Reach.
[X] I refuse to play the map people voted for, period. (Which maps? Explain below)
[X] I refuse to play the gametype people voted for, period. (Which gametypes? Explain below)
[X] My teammates are griefing, betraying each other, or betraying me.
[X] My teammates are really bad or not even trying or AFKing.
[X] Several of my teammates have already quit.
[X] The lag is unbearable.
[X] Rage quit for other reason. (What else causes you to rage quit? Explain below)
[X] Other, please explain......
Maps:
oh I have no problem quitting in a game like derp reach. For maps I refuse to play on hemorrhage more than once every time I log on if I'm playing BTB. That map is terrible, once is enough. If it gets voted in again i just quit at the beginning and find a better lobby of players who vote for a more reasonable map that is actually fun to play on.
Gametypes:
I will never ever ever EVER play Elite slayer. Tell me why I must play a stupid gametype like elite slayer that forces me to be an elite? I chose to be a spartan why should the game force me to be a derp dino. no just no, that gametype is terrible. Keep elites in terribad invasion where they belong.
Teammates:
If they aren't playing (like AFK, betraying, or not taking the match serious) or just plain bad, like so bad they can't even get a single kill I leave. I don't like wasting my time on pointless matches.
Lag:
Surprise surprise reach but your network sucks compared to halo 3's!!! Nowhere in halo 3 does the game go black screen so much in the middle of a match or at the beginning for me than reach. Why on earth does reach throw me into terrible red and yellow bar matches at random where the players are clearly terrible but the lag is so bad for me I can't even spawn. I leave those matches with no hesitation. MW3 has lag issues but sometimes Reach can trump that fail bar.
Other:
I have a 3 deaths rule. Kind of a "3 strikes you're done just leave" rule. If I'm not playing with friends and the beginning of the match I am killed 3 times or more in a row without getting a single kill yet I insta leave. I call BS and move on. This is really rare for me but most of the times those matches are related to having afk teammates or plain and simple bad lag matches. Either way I don't waste my time in compromised matches.
For the record. I've been quit banned multiple times (the 10 min ban) but you know what? I've never served the 10 min time . . . ever. Why you ask? I simply log out, log back in to another account and keep playing =) Reach gets the big middle finger thinking it can stop me from quitting terrible matches and maps. If I don't want to play it I'll leave and no penalty will ever get in my way.
I have literally done everything, or said everything in this post above. Even something similar to the 3 death rule. There are times when I bail when I'm at 2-6 or 2-8, the shieldless opposition is eating my shots yet I'm getting dropped after I've found cover (lag). That tells me it's already over, and to just leave.
But I don't see how you avoid the Quit Ban by switching accounts? If I'm serving a Quit Ban (10 mins) I can bail, my girlfriend can sign in, and she's stuck serving it as well .... it's always been a console wide ban for us.
