Clandestine 390 Posted June 18, 2018 You don't have to refuse. You can simply go take a piss or eat or whatever. You aren't slave of the game. I know only one game that bans people for rage quits and I'd rather get banned than have my freedom limited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilyV3 323 Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) No you can't. just tell them to go to silver district if they want opps playing with them. but getting their butt handleed to them is obviously too much for them. They just hope you are noob enough falling for their little lies. Edited June 18, 2018 by LilyV3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asparii 50 Posted June 18, 2018 Golds shouldn't be playing in bronze district, just ignore them. Best thing to do is play out the mission and try your best, but you can't be banned for not doing well/playing. However retaliating (I.E flaming them) could get you punished in some way 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoeEveryWeek 34 Posted June 18, 2018 I just get a cheap kill or do a obj then laze of somewhere, so I still get some reward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danimal 36 Posted June 18, 2018 I recently had this same issue. Gold rank team in bronze slaughting me and my team mates. Hitting the objectives without any sort of defence. I think I went 1-7 before I finally just quit. This was Friday afternoon and I haven't logged in since. Pieces of crap ruined my game. Fix this LO. Get these vultures looking for easy kills and game wins out of the districts allotted to less skilled players. I'm not spending a dime till this is fixed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shanice 2 Posted June 18, 2018 Probably not, but you can be banned for spamming the district chat and that's what you are doing during the 9 missions, you are not playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So lately you AFK 90% of the missions you play? Isn’t that even more boring than playing against the golds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alani 475 Posted June 18, 2018 i find it odd you are seeking justification for not playing a mission when you queue up for it. If you are so adamant on not playing certain missions, either have them kick you, or ALT F4 and restart the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gogol 53 Posted June 18, 2018 No, I don't think you can get banned for that. While your frustration is understandable and golds shouldn't be farming bronzes, it's kinda lame to just bail on your teammates like that tbh, a better approach would be to just leave so they can at least call backup or something.. or convince your entire team to not face the golds, if anything lol. Sure maybe backup won't do them much good since it's still a bronze server, but honestly a gold that needs to farm bronzes can't be that good to begin with, so a decent silver should be able to beat them 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SelttikS 224 Posted June 18, 2018 The "gold", pfft wanna be gold, Had to have Dethreated to be there so shouldn't they be the ones getting a ban. If everyone actually played as intended the game wouldn't be the gutter it is now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats horrific!!! Send a support ticket explaining that someone wanted you to play the game. A new person will learn nothing getting stomped by a team of gold. Only thing that new players will learn is that "this game sucks" and quit. We are a small community and should try to retain new players not run them off. Go easy on the Bronze noobs when you are the 3 golds vs a solo bronze, maybe they will enjoy it a little and stay? Best thing we can do as a community is to make sure Nun outfits are added to the game. This will help revitalize the community and make APB Great again! 24 minutes ago, Birmingham said: So im in game right now.. first mission 4 max ranked golds... i drive round an the map looks like its silver.. so meny max ranked golds its crazy !! Are you playing in Bronze or Silver? I mean there are a lot of Gold in bronze but definitely less than in Silver. Oddly there are more silver in gold.

You ain't new nor a bronze level player It is a matter of separation of skill level. A bronze playing against Gold wont learn anything and Someone from modern times wont be teaching a cave man Computer skills very easy either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thelnformer 63 Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) NO And you can report them and hopefully get them punished for dethreating :) Edited June 18, 2018 by Thelnformer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookiePuss 5378 Posted June 18, 2018 If you have recorded evidence of purposeful dethreating, upload it and send the link to LO support. This is the kind of thing temp bans are for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
