People who quit in online gaming because they're losing.
I swear to fucking God, if I see another player in Motorstorm online quit because they're in last place....

It's most annoying if one of your teammates quits a game because they're not doing so well. Congrats, you are coward who can't have any fun if they're not getting their ego stroked 24/7.
If it's an RTS, if even ONE person quits. I'm done. Unless it looks like they have a noob on their team so maybe the teams are still balanced.
I don't feel bad. It's no fun to play with 1/2 of your team idle or building their sentries, directing their medics or placing their sticky bombs at the WRONG FUCKING POINT until there's only 1:30 seconds left.
That too, really. Dicks. How are people supposed to improve if you turn your nose and don't give them a chance?
But in something more involved, like Starcraft, if people on your team drop out it's pretty devastating.
Red Alert 3 has that. Actually, most C&C games do. When a player quits or disconnects, another teammate inherits their base and units.
Sure, in games like Pokemon, this would be obvious due to the sudden increase in difficulty, but still
I was using "general you". Probably should have clarified that.
I try not to let losing in multiplayer games get me upset, but when I'm just having a bad night or something, and I just keep coming in last or losing over and over again, I don't especially want to keep playing.
