You only get deserter if you enter the battleground. If you drop queue before you enter, then there is no penalty.
It is a suggestion for something that isn’t there and would be to create incentive to join the queue

Honestly instead of deserter or whatever to punish them…
LET US QUE WHOLE RAIDS FOR REG BGS.
But… make it so that the que will prioritize premade vs premade first and not doom pugs to inevitable death.

Works only on paper, the queue will be dead like XPoff queue and take a really long time.
I re-read what you said, they’re already trying to do something like that I think, to match premade vs premade
The system already does this.
We all know what’s going to happen anyways if Blizzard allows premade raids. Weaker premades will dodge or AFK out when they see stronger premades. We’ll still have a bunch of games where teams start half empty.
Premades will continue sync queuing in order to face pugs. If necessary, they’ll sync queue their members as 40+ “solo” players.

Idk… every group I’ve been with…… we look for the other premades LOL
They usually run anyway.

Yeah, they’re not looking to fight stronger premades. They want to roflstomp pugs.
Allowing premade raids doesn’t help the premade raids vs. pugs problem. It just helps premade raids avoid split queues. Premades will still dodge or AFK out if they’re not facing a weaker team (i.e. random pugs).
I got into a Wintergrasp that was 20v40 the other day lol
What even is this game XD

Queue pops instantly = big “backfilling a failed BG” red flag, absolutely always decline.
Was in an Ashran last night that started with ~35 Alli…to 3 Horde. I felt so bad for them 
Yeah, I was in that one too, we just rushed to the boss and won in 5 minutes. I did mention in chat that it was likely due to premade shenanigans
Okay, whew!
I spent all night trying to reconstruct that image and identify our fiend.
With Pentagon supercomputers using special imagery analysis tools, I was able to solve the mystery!
She even has the gall to point out her pet giraffe in the background!
And for reference, I submit this recently taken picture! She has changed out of her dark armor and ditched the saber to avoid detection, but there can be no doubt that this is the perp.
Take her away!
Case closed.

It’s true, I heard a rumor that our beloved Mistwidget might be flinging themselves in the nether, and have decided to assume the mantle of clowning around in mid field in AV and soloing Drek. There isn’t a thing anyone can do about that, either! You’ve been warned!

Youre never going to have perfect teams, and perfect setups, and so forth. There will always be an imbalance. Instead of pvp, stop quing for bgs, and go do dungeons or raids or quests, because clearly, ya’ll dont know how to put up a fight, EVEN IN TERRIBLE ODDS.
I cant tell you how many times I’ve seen people leave or say gg after losing ROC in ashran, and we already had a plan for that, and absolutely STOMP the other side, which was a premade. People give up to easily, just a few people can change the ENTIRE fight with their actions.
But its easier to just give up.
Stop taking the easy path. Adapt. Find a way.
oh… and as far as the que not filling a bg and leaving like 10 people to fight 30+… I blame blizz on that one. No excuse.

i backfilled into a winning bg a few days ago so maybe all your information is really just you guys in your feelings.
that can happen sometimes but 50% of the time being in a backfill is a loss

I thought the case was closed too.
However, my gut was bothering me. Maybe it was the 50% off sushi from the supermarket. Maybe it was the Taco Bell. Or maybe, just maybe, something was off with this case.
Since my gut has never let me down (outside of incidents of food poisoning), I decided to check with the world’s foremost experts on forensic digital image analytics — Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.
With additional help from Commander Data, we analyzed this image:
The results will shock you.
Using the Reverse-Mortgage-ETF-Bitcoin-ChatGPT-Meta-X algorithm and the computational power of all the isolinear cores of the USS Enterprise, we detected there were subtle, but significant alterations:
The original image had been modified. We were nearly duped by falsified evidence.
The perpetrator tried to throw us off his scent. Unfortunately for him, the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.
This case is completely wide open.

Pffh.
Mere chromatic aberrations.
Besides, the perp herself confessed.
OR DID YOU MISS THAT.
