I was in a STF and there was a little accident that you guys all know the nodes being killed before and the OPT fails then 1 player left the map and then I sayd to myself I will just leave also it gave me a STF leave penalty wich is stupid then I want to do some big dig or something else then STF now it says this: [System] [PvPGeneral] You are temporarily banned from joining or creating public queues.
Like since when do you get BANNED in all queues???:mad:

Since Season 7, and it's for 1 hour.
Did you consider the 3 guys you left in mission, if they also left they would've gotten a leaver penalty as well but since you left and there was only 3 to try to finish the mission, YOU hosed them.
A 1 hour ban isn't punishment enough for you selfishness and treachery.

Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
Because if its removed, afk leechers will no longer be able to troll so badly.

2nd bail 3 hours
3rd bail 24 hours
4th bail 7 days
5th bail life
(just my view)
I think if you afk an entire match and grab your loot at the end you should be demoted 10 levels...

I have been in some ground missions that had multiple people leave making the mission impossible to finish and then I left and got a penalty and that is just BS. I hate having to either wait 15 min from start of the mission to be able to leave without penalty.
I personally don't like the penalty at all because more people leech missions that have penalties because they know people would be much less likely to leave. If people could leave without penalty their would be less leeching because more people would leave if their are leechers and the leechers would get nothing making leeching much less profitable.
And those that have a good net connection and get kicked because of the game are also screwed. But since that was none of our fault we need to get out of the stone age.
Some things would work so much better if people just thought before they commented.
Stone age? That would be the land of floppy disks, sneaker net, thin net, fat net, token ring, coax networks, and dial up modems... OH GOT THE HORRORS!!
And things happen to internet connections. Networks lag, routers go bad, modems die, and power blips, brownouts, and outages happen.
Even with a battery backup system running my PC and home network all it takes for those of us not in a location with underground utilities is a single tree branch, tree, speeding lunatic, drunk driver, or forces of nature to cause a disruption in utilities. And by utilities I mean phone/DSL/ADSL/fiber optic, cable TV/internet, and power.
Things happen, Murphy comes over for a visit, and just accept the fact that while YOU may have an internet connection that others dream about, YOU must pause and think about those of us who may not have the most stable always available connections. I had to live with dial up for years, NEVER getting above 26.4kb due to old paper insulated phone lines. Then in 2002... Adelphia dropped broadband service, which was about as stable as a drunk one legged giraffe. In 2003 Adelphia had managed to "fix" their network, later actually fixing it before becoming Comcast. Even today I still have issues with the Comcast internet service.
It even took my area 11 years to get even a single bar of cellular service. Now my area gets two bars of service, and I don't even have to go out to the end of my driveway to fish for a cellular signal like in the past.

The leaver penalty is working exactly as it should, it's an appropriate reward for selfishness and betrayal, in fact it may be too lenient.
If that great big group of enemy ships just happens to end up within firing range of someone who could have easily avoided them or fought them off had they been paying attention in the first place...oops, my bad. Lesson learned, I guess, shame on me for not paying attention to where I was pulling that inordinately large group of very angry Borg. I was just trying to help!
Spock's Brain.
Today I spend a while putting on my best anti borg equip and queue up for Khitomer in Statis.. only - just that one, because that's the one I want to play. Before long, the Engage window pops up, I click it, wait for the other players, and eventually there we are.
One of the players teams us up,
and suddenly the game says I will be removed from the map in 10 seconds. That long window pops up so I may leave early (which I don't want to leave AT ALL!)
I didn't do anything to leave the map, and there's NOTHING I can do to stop it! Didn't lose Internet connection at all.
10 seconds later, I'm back where I was before we started. I did NOTHING to leave, wasn't afk obviously... not a quitter.
Didn't get to play the queue I signed up for and banned for 1 hour from joining or creating public queues.
Please explain why it "should" work that way.
See this thread: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=513871
I think that the first person to leave should get the ban after than they don't
Also I have had my wireless over heat so I got disconnected I did not get a ban for that I just rejoined when I could.
Also Do not put in a kick button I know the game can do with it at times however you may get it aimed at you even through you are playing very well. If it does, than the "match" whatever would need to be moderated quite well to stop it being wrongly used....
my 2 cents

You mean so that the trolls can boot the good players.
There already is a Vote button...
It's called the "Don't Click On PUGS" Option and it's available every time you open the que window.

Agreed! Some sort of automatic inactivity kick for the AFKers would be nice, and a lengthy ban also
PWE ARC Drone says: "Your STO forum community as you have known it is ended...Display names are irrelevant...Any further sense of community is irrelevant...Resistance is futile...You will be assimilated..."
Exactly my point. Anyone who has played CSS or other that has that, its gets abused like hell...
In other words, what if you joined the wrong queue and had to leave it right away, and you get 1 hour banned for it?
Doesn't that sound unfair, since you didn't mean to join that one queue, but was actually going for the queue above or below it and you accidently press that other queue by mistake?
Well, it just happened to me: I was aiming for the Crystalline Entity event, and pressed Hive Onslaught by mistake, so I log out of it once it was done loading, and now I got banned from queues for an hour. It was all a mistake on my part. I was going down the queue list too fast.

However even that could be solved with a cut off say 10 minutes into the stf you cant kick anyone.
Would it solve all leeching?...no
Would it solve some leeching?....probably
Is it worth it to boot a bad player?.....eh depends on how good the other 4 are
Could it be abused?...sure, but to what gain if you can just cue right back up?
And to clear that last hurdle, what if its obviously a lost cause before the 15 minute mark?
A vote quit system. The remaining plaayers vote to end the stf early and leave with no penalty.

You sound like the ragequitters I have been having to deal with lately! I can barely get an STF done without one dropping for one reason or another, thus making the mission either VERY hard or impossible to finish. I can't count how many missions that I and fellow team members have had to quit out of because someone ragequitted. It's getting to the point that I can only finish MAYBE one or two STFs a night due to ragequitters. And for someone trying to get his Omega rep up for some antiproton weapon so he can be more effective in STFs, that's a problem.
And before you say that I should play with people in my fleet, let me add that I mostly play late nights because I have a very busy life during the day and barely have time for STO.
Also, on a side note, I don't seem to suffer the leaver penalty when I drop from a match for above reasons. I have been in a match and had to drop when two people dropped and made the mission impossible to finish (Cure: Applied, I think it was), so I entered into Cure Found pve and got in, strangely at the same time as one of my team members from the match before also joined that one. Of course, that was a strange match in which someone was flying a Tier 2 Connie. Oh dear, that was a night.
