this NEEDS to be flat out removed from the game, if someone wants to leave a bg b4 the match starts and q again they should be able to, I now have logged different toons (because of the deserter) and got the same bg I absolutely hate playing.
so another idea would be to BLACKLIST bgs as well, but this isn’t about that, take this stupid deserter away so I/WE can q again without having to wait 15 minutes…!
Um, no.
Take everything in moderation (including world of warcraft)
Let me guess… back-to-back losing Wintergrasp games that are already in-progress? I’ve had that happen to me too
Deserter Debuff = 15 Mins
BG you don’t like = 20 Mins (average)
Blizz did you a favor by giving you 5 more minutes of PvP.
They should just bring back blacklisting. I’m tired of the mines.
Ummm no… Can I refer you to
It needs to be ten minutes account wide.
You should get 60 seconds to bail with no penalty.
Oh my 1/2 the team has 280 Ilevel…bail
You can choose specific BG’s to Queue for. Blacklisting isn’t a thing anymore, but the option to queue for just the BG you want to play is still there. You can queue for 3 Different battlegrounds at once.
Using the random queue option to wait 10+ to 15+ minutes just to leave and re-que for another random BG trying to hunt for a specific one is going to take you more time and work in the long run. Save yourself some loading screens and time. Queue for specific BG’s to avoid this entire situation.
um one word…CONQUEST
Standing in WG GY while the other team spam spells that don’t damage you isn’t PVP.
Late here, but blacklist doesn’t need to be removed. It just needs to stay as it is:
15 minutes per toon.
Willing to hear alternative ideas from folks who play on average at least a couple epic BGs per day, and have played retail continuously for at least the past year. Small BGs, whotf cares since they are so fast. If you can’t handle folks leaving non-rated small BGs maybe you shouldn’t be playing them.
I know right? A little bg usually ends in like 10-15 minutes, tops. If it’s a totally 1-sided stomp, it can end even sooner… maybe 7-8 minutes.
Not sure what all the fuss is about on here I suspect a lot of these guys don’t “actually” care about leavers and they are just fishing for likes/attention.
Check and check
On that note, I’ll probably be afk from bgs for the next 2 weeks or so, this 8.3 stuff is some SERIOUS grinding for those of us with alts
A discussion doesn’t work like that. Sorry but we’ve going to state our suggestions without your consent.
You do realize that you can run to another GY and rez?
And why would you want to respawn in a lost WG with 25 minutes left?
No reason. Go ahead and sit there and do nothing. You are not coming back to win. No sense in trying because it never happens.
You got into the same bg that you deserted?
He’s not lying… I’ve had this happen to me a few times.
But I mainly play 40-man bgs, so it’s entirely possible for a match to actually last long enough to get dropped “back into” the same loss
Most common offenders for this are losing Wintergrasp games (especially), losing Ashran games can also cause this to happen (getting dropped into the same loss on an alt).

I don’t play 40s, EVER. to many people and to much crap that goes on in them
and ive actually had back to back to back to back to back same instances (5 in a row that I cant stand to play)
so a blacklist of some kind needs to come back
