    I think a better way to deal with the campers is for the system to kick them if they don't take damage over a 2 minute period that way they can't just camp at the fire pushing buttons to stay there.

    well you don't get any glory for 0 score, as I said. they also removed glory for very short games (ie one side does nothing, other side caps all points and sits there til timer runs out) so there's no point in camping at the fire any more. at least there's no rewards. people just do it for griefing (I guess..)

    I do agree the penalty should stay.

    My main issue is that when someone dc's and then comes back, they get auto kicked from the match with a penalty.

    Leaver penalty set up as it is now penalizes far more players who suffer a spontaneous disconnect & quickly relog only to be kicked by the system.

    Rework to institute a 2 minute grace period where relog is allowed without being kicked from party.

    Does one still get the AD's for completing the 4 PvP matches and do they still get the AD if they camp for the entire run? I agree there should be a penalty because anyone NOT joining the fight is taking away from the other players in the fight and possibly ruining their game as well. I still think it should be so if they take or give no damage in so many seconds then they are logged out and penalized to not be able to log in for the same amount of time as the event was for. People would stop doing these things if there were penalties. I just don't approve of the way the penalties currently are handed out because other factors can contribute the triggering of the penalty that don't necessarily fit the reason....like server disconnects. The launcher could be made to hold a port open for say 30 seconds after the game is exited to allow time for a server disconnect to be re-established. If the user logs back in withing 30 seconds after actually fighting but was disconnected, then the system could better determine it wasn't the users actions that dropped them from the party but a disconnect, thus allowing them to re-log and continue without penalty.
    Take the extra time to do the job right and it will never come back to bite you in the A**
