Calm the cussing down, please edit your post.

Yeah, I did sort of go overboard a bit didn't I? Alright... but if this isn't fixed soon, I may end up posting one much worse. You can't test a beta that you can't play.

If you get temp banned for it, you won't here the end of it from me but if you get perma banned you'll never hear me in the first place so I recommend against cussing without an asterisk in the place if the word or vowel.

ruining the game for everyone? umm, it's not ruining it for me, it's a good game the lag is only an inconvenience. And i've never joined a game that ended already

Lucky you. Rest of us come into games right at end all the time. I'm sorry, but if there is less than 3 minutes on a match remaining (a very easy filter to set into your program), then the game should not allow ANY new players into the match. This will keep people from getting into a match that is usually a blowout loss, hence there being a spot suddenly opened up for them. Some people try to keep their win/loss ratio up high so they jump out at end if things aren't going well for them. And since CCP made it to where they still get their SP/ISK, they think it is an acceptable form of behavior.

LAG AND JOINING BATTLES AS THEY ARE ENDING IS RUINING THIS FOR EVERYONE!! HOW THE HELL CAN YOU EXPECT PEOPLE TO PLAY A GAME THAT WON'T ALLOW US TO PLAY IT?! PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW AFTER SO LONG THAT THIS HAS YET TO BE FIXED!


I figured if I yelled the first few lines that maybe this might actually get read by someone in some position of authority, if for no other reason than to double check that I haven't circumnavigated the filters with cleverly worded cussing or foul language.

Seriously though, can we please have an update as to how things are going in this regard, or at least give us an idea of how long these issues will persist? I had 3 matches in a row yesterday that ended before I could even spawn, immediately followed by 2 matches that the time limit had been reached on but the spawn count was still 80/80 and was waiting for the first kill of the match, and that was followed up immediately by spawning into a 5 point match that froze my system completely and required a hard reset. Later that same night I experienced 5 more matches ending as I joined, 4 matches that I had to quit because of heinous lag, and 2 more hard resets, then finally gave up on it.

The issues here have reached critical mass and people are going to start abandoning in droves if this isn't remedied soon or discussed with us in a public way so we can as a group understand the situation.
