Back when I was playing BGs regularly, we had a few people once in a while who went AFK. There was one who did this (notably) and only when I was grouped with him, like if he were on another Team, another match then he'd play but not otherwise. Also, just for fun, on the couple days when he would show up whatever team I was on consistently won against him too.

I understand what you're saying but it really can be taken as something really offensive and wasting everyone's time. I'm not saying you intended that, I'm just saying there was nothing worse than being grouped with someone who didn't care. Now that we've had this conversation, I do thank you for bringing this up because it reminds me about something else.

Anyways, yeah, they need to address the issue with Team's being able to quit and re-draw if need be.

Can't stand wall-standers. You can vote-kick people out of dungeons for any reason, so why not BGs?

You're correct, nothing happens when you report AFK players.

That aside, the issue can be solved within the current format of BGs by applying two easy fixes ...

1) Automatically teleport players onto the field from spawn point after 10 seconds

2) Automatically respawn dead players after 10 seconds.

This way, the game finishes quickly if its unbalanced and everyone can move on with thier gaming.

If you"re sitting in spawn just wasting time and all your team mates are dead then you're just a troll ... in this instance, expect to get some verbals thrown at you.

So in a crazy king battleground where the winning team kills the loosers nearly instantly and avoids taking flag to avoid bg to end they can kill every player on loosing team 45 times?
Guess this will motivate them very much and not make them leave battleground.

These are obvious issues that were discussed right after the release of BG. I won’t look for all the threads, just as an example:
