You do not want a deserter debuff. Put yourself in the mindset of someone who is willing leaving a warzone. You are frustrated, you're losing, you probably are an elitist who thinks the other people in your ops group are losers. You have decided that your team has a poor chance to win. This person has decided that the game is lost. Do you want a guaranteed bad attitude that is probably not going to fight too hard (or at all and just sit there) waiting to lose the match quickly. Or do you want to just replace that person with the next guy in the queue? Also, I NEVER leave warzones. Because I do them so often me getting my win isn't an issue, it'll happen just based on chance. But I want to queue to be fast, so I get back to pvp'n. I love getting into civil war with 30 seconds left in a lost match. I get some valor, some commendations, some credits all because someone was 30 seconds impatient.

I'm too demanding, I want more than 3 things. So my personal wishlist ranked from most pertinent to least. 1. Fix all the bugs! Quest completion bugs in open world and warzones, stacking player numbers in warzones (no more 8v11 warzone matches), being able to not get DC'd so people afk in warzones. Fix the bug that lets people jump from right to mid in Civil War (it makes it too easy to defend two at once). 2. Queue as ops group. I hate only being able to pvp with a small sliver of my guild. 3. Larger warzones. Nothing crazy like 40 on 40, but 16 on 16 would be great. 4. Even out the number of medals each role can earn. Frankly a dps / healer hybrid can earn way more medals than a Jedi Sentinel. Give medals for assists in Huttball, attack players near a gun battery when it was captured, etc. While we're at it, maybe give some valor extra for actually voting for MVP, that way you not voting means you are personally missing out. 5. Fix the faction imbalance. How? Allow for people to queue as a "mercenary" and fight on the enemy side for extra rewards. And not a change, but keep it the way it is: 6. Don't add a debuff for leaving a warzone early. They already get nothing if they leave early (valor, commendations, etc). If you don't want to be in this warzone with me, leave! I'd rather take my chances with the next guy in queue than know I'm stuck with someone who doesn't want to be there. Forcing them to stay means they are more likely to not try / or dawdle around. They already decided it was going to be a loss.

Yeah, I'm pretty sick of losing because of unbalanced teams. I wont go as far as to call these people exploiting. When a known bug goes neglected for so long, we call that a feature. I think it is safe to assume this is a feature. If you want to win, grab people from fleet chat and stack your side.

All I really want is a mod-able interface. Spend your interface development time on that.
