BUG BUGGEDY BUG - Battlegrounds disconnect - should you be penalized as a deserter?

So I was disconnected halfway through a deathmatch. Reloaded quickly and I was put back to a pve zone and penalized by an 18m queue restriction for being a deserter. Really?

With dungeons you can rejoin after a dc if quick. I saw someone else drop off, so I think it was a central glitch and not anything at my end. so, again, Really? I lost the time spent, xp etc through no fault on my side and penalized for it too.

    Be too much common sense for ZoS to ping you to find out if you disconnected voluntarily or otherwise.

    Except for disconnects and other glitches, it's probably for the best. I'd say about half the time when I play, the outlook is very grimm at first. If there was no penalty I would probably drop out just like a lot of other players. But when the penalty is longer than the actual match you might as well tough it out and at least get some AP.

    My point on dung they know a dc vs a leave on purpose. Penalized for a leave, a dc you can rejoin. With battlegrounds penalized whatever.

    OK so another round, saw 5 people left BG then I dc'd. Again an 18m penalty to rejoin. So really this is right? looks like we were ll dc'd and penalized.

    Looks like a bug to me!

    I queued for a random BG today. Got the loading screen for a deathmatch BG. Waited... and waited... and waited... Eventually (after about 5m), I got booted back to my original zone, with a deserter penalty timeout to boot. I feel sorry for the other people on my team, whatever colour it was... (I never got to see them).

    Right at this moment, see another thread started too - but blue screen disconnects are almost certainly linked to executes on other players (I've personally experienced a LOT of blue screens on killer's blade).

    The problem is still here. I was booted by the server before the game started but still penalized as a deserter.
