I'm fed up. I spend a while online finding someone with a decent connection and right when I'm about to beat them, lately they have been manually disconnecting so they don't lose their bp. :mad:
So I'm starting a campaign to name and shame people who manually disconnect. Now I'm not talking about when it happens and it's out of your control, this has happened to me in a few player matches and I've always messaged the person to say sorry. I'm talking about when someone manually disconnects so they don't lose a match. You know the ones I'm talking about, they are about to lose, maybe one or two hits away, then all of a sudden their character stops moving as they rush to the PS3 to turn it off or pull out the ethernet cable.
This is ridiculous and cheapness of the highest order. If you play ranking match you HAVE to be prepared to lose. I'm an above average player but by no means great. I've lost loads of games (some to people I should have beaten) and won loads of games (against some I should have lost to). That's part and parcel of playing the game online and if you're going to be so pathetic to disconnect just before you lose, then you don't deserve to have an online account in the first place.
X-box allows you to leave negative feedback on players, but the PS3 system doesn't allow it, so I want to start naming and shaming these punks who are too chicken to play online against real players. I'll start the ball rolling by naming the first person I have put on my block list, there will be plenty more to follow.
.
Please add to the list or sticky it so we can get some actual matches going and not play people who run at the first sign of trouble.
