I am American.

And unfortunately, most of my flying buddies are either Kiwi or across the pond, so I keep odd hours to play with them. Unfortunately, I run into the some of the lowest scum in the barrel before I get to play with the real aces. For an hour now, I have had several people join my game, then quit as soon as the game starts. Or better yet, wait until the last thirty seconds of a match, and then everyone quits. What sort of sick prank is this? I'm working on making my neutered little IL-10 a rocket bombing monstrosity, but how can I when I'm not even allowed to finish a match because of these pantywaist pranksters? And just to let you know, I am playing on PS3, so I can't block or report any of these jokers. I know the quitters are an epidemic right now, but any word on this new breed of trolls? Have you guys ran in to this sort of problem yet?

I love the game...it's just the people you run into online sometimes.

I've had my fair share of what seemed to be quitters, but to be fair, I've also been disconnected from games at random times, so i'm sure there are a few people that thought i'd quit out. I've also failed to connect to a lot of games when the match starts, so again that probably looks like i've quit out.

However, that doesn't explain the majority of players leaving at the same time near the end of the match... that would really piss me off to be honest, so I can understand your annoyance... what's the deal with the scoring system in the game then? Doesn't it count if the other team quits before the end?
