At least that seemed to be a problem in teamgames a while, no idea if it still works, might be something different. | ||

The only thing you can do is report the idiot and hope Blizz makes a fix for this sometime soon. | ||

The justification is this: in a random 4v4, the chances of a team winning is 50%. In a random 3v4 (one dropped), the chances of the smaller team winning might be 30%. Assume each game takes 20 minutes, and to join and drop immediately takes 1 minute. To get 500 wins, the normal player will need to play 1,000 games at 20 minutes each, taking 20,000 minutes. The dropper will need to join and leave 1,667 games at 1 minute each, yielding a total of 1,667 minutes. Thus, the normal player needs 20,000 minutes to get a 500 icon, the dropper needs 1,667 minutes. | ||

This has been a problem for a long time and blizzard has still not found or implemented a fix for it yet. But yes as others have stated its an easy way to mass games and wins to gain achievements portraits or whatever else blizzard rewards players who win a lot of multiplayer games with. | ||

"Oh poo, dey dun pley da game da way poopsie sez to play it, QQ i'ma ban dat bad man! ban ban!" Who cares how other people play? This is not a bannable offense any more than 6pool/4gate/etc. and results in the same amount of high-pitched whining. Anyone "serious" about 4v4s (ha!) would play with a team anyway so why do you care if someone leaves the game? Because they get worthless pictures that make them look "better than they are"? Point the finger at Blizzard for putting the incentive there rather than cry about abusive players and try to ban them. | ||

Yeah, all abusive players should be left to abuse the system, and no discussions or attempts should be made to try to resolve the abuse. The loopwhole is there, therefore it is perfectly acceptable to mess up thousands of other players games. Perfectly reasonable. | ||

There is no loophole and this is not abuse. The only thing the 300-second minimum rule has done so far is deprive me of legit wins when my team goes for a fast rush and the other guys leave to deprive us of achievement credit. Shall I QQ more about that? | ||
