here is one for you all...

how bout a "cowardus" Tittle...

you know for all those peeps rage quiting recently...

just set the title up to track party drops.... for those that randomly have conection drops dont fear as you prob wouldn't accumulate enough to get a title..

but for the rest we would see who likes to turn tail and rage quit when the going gets tough

the thing is, displaying a title is a choice, and I doubt many people would choose to display it.

people quit because of teammates, not because of mobs... wherever those teamates deserve it or not is an open question.

Then people would start quitting on purpose just to get the title.. and that would make matters worse.

No, because...

1. It would increase the amount of quits. Some really want that title.
2. Those who quit a lot and want to hide, they just don't show the title.
3. Some players would form a party, join, quit and repeat it thousand times.

"Coward" title would be nice but maybe it should be earned with other ways.

Without ever be able to brag about it? Don't think so. Nobody would have him in their parties. I'd rather invite Leeroy Jenkins

Maybe it would go towards KoaBD title? Or some people are just title collectors and would just hide that when looking for parties.

You were wrong, I didn't like this at all.

I demand a refund.

How about a Forest Gump title for the runner’s 1000 min using running skills?

yeah, at least leeroy's got chicken

but seriously, i agree that all it would do is cause more people to quit and shoot for the title. i can see it now .... "forming group of quitters- add self!" but on the postive side, at least assassins could finally get into a party then.

I like it for some reason because you used your mind control on me when you said I will like it.

This idea was brought up before as the Quitter Title.

Well, if it counts toward Kind of a Big Deal, then you don't really have to brag with the quitter title. Just show KoaBD that was gained via the quitter title

Remember, there are people masochistic enough to spend 10k mins doing nothing but burning money, or spending DAYS afk to lose more.

This one would be no exception to the "lawl i pwn joo wiff meh tytle" attitude

This would promote rage quitting. People would start joining pugs and leaving right after mission starts for this title.

what may likly happen is those who like to farm for titles may actually become leaver just to earn the title. Might actually encourage leavers.

Locking this thread, and all the other "Fix Leavers" threads in Sardelac, for the time being. When the new system is revealed, we'll look at it, look at these threads, and see if they need reopened or not. Until then, let's all be patient and see what we get.
