I don't understand why there is an option to quit games, that just allows people to quit more frequently.
If it's an emergency, then they can just go to x-box home.

I hate quitting, but I have HAD to quit for real life reasons so it should be an option, rather quit, than just stand there getting killed (and betrayed by the butt hurt)till the game is over.

Let me say that in a better way, i hate quitting when it is used in a way to unfairly pad stats or other unfair play.

Difference between quitting and going to the dashboard please?

The point of the quit option is for those who don't want to play that gametype/map. At least in my mind, although it also gives those who are losing quite badly the option to leave and find another game.

Always up for REACH customs!

Quitting is a major problem, but if there's no quit button people who absolutely want to leave a game will either 1) simply "dashboard quit" by signing out, or 2) not know how to dashboard and AFK for the rest of the game, which is even worse than quitting.

some people do quit far too often I agree but it's neither here nor now, but the quit option should still be there, especially in games where you have one player with four controllers hooked up and three of them are standing there the whole match

Your question is all wrong. It should be:
"Should they get rid of the Quit option?"
The Quit option already exists.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

Yes. It's a game; not a non-negotiable commitment.

Ya, why did they take away the 10 minute temporary ban thing. It was great, and no one quit then, or at least, not as much.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

There's nothing wrong with quitting.
