They like you very much and don't want to see you suffer |

| A lot of people do not like mirror matches, so they just leave and start a new game. Maybe that's it? |

| Because they want to 'demote' themselves so they can work they way back up again even though they'll get back to where they were before in about a day. |

| That happends in all leagues I do that sometimes in diamond... its becuase I dont feel like playing a matchup or I realise I dont want to play when the game starts and just queued up without thinking. Last edit: 2012-06-16 00:31:19 |

its this ... pretty sad i know. although i don't understand why they'd keep losing when they reach bronze, i thought thats the point where they'd start trying to get wins |

Portrait farming.
As far as I gather, they have a bot running that insta-leaves all games to tank their MMR until their MMR is so low that they all meet other people running bots, and then sometimes randomly wait a bit longer than normal, so that they'll win that game.
That way, they can leave it running to quickly get portraits for x wins etc etc. |

Note that we have "portrait farming" in TL too. Some people will make dumb threads, or reply something like "Nice/interesting thread" just to get their "avatar" to move all the way to a carrier. Nice use of your time, guys. |

+1 (to my post count :-D).
Without doing a search, I am quite confident that there a plenty threads about people leaving and ofc. as others wrote, it's just for win-farming. |

Yeah,most of the times that's the reason.At least that's what the 2 people i asked told me.
Nothing wrong with that though,free wins! |

I saw a guy playing random, but leaving when he got P/Z, just to get the portrait(probably not the smartest way) . |

That way you farm both the random and the terran portraits though. |
