Subject: host booting

so i played arena yesterday and was host booted by some kids and i lost my onyx now im 5% gold. i played again today and was just host booted again so i will go up another 15%. so why does quitting out make you go up no matter what its a bit stupid even if you do good and win the rest of the day it doesn't matter you still go up in percentage.

That's what you get for playing a rubbish playlist.

Solution: Don't play Arena. If you want a competitive match, I would steer you towards the MLG playlist.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

Arena Onyx is mostly boosters and cheaters now. Don't bother with it.

Winner of the 2012 Lurker of the Year award.

I'm watching you.

After a quick check through your game history, I didn't see any examples of you leaving a game today or yesterday. Also, how would you know if you were host booted? Sounds like a wild assumption to me with no evidence to back it up.
