Etiquette Question
-
I am new to online gaming and I was playing ranked season and I was up 2-0 in the second and was asked for a friendly quit. I am trying to earn XP and rank points. Are friendly quits usually accepted. What is the best etiquette?

I'll never understand the friendly quit. I say unless the person is winning and has something come up. Still, even then I personally have never asked for one. Take the win, if I choose to leave a game early or something comes up, I still say, you get the win.
Regardless, if you accept, you don't get credit for any missions, innings (from what I understand....but I don't play RS so I could be wrong). So I wouldn't accept a friendly quit...hahaha, I'm not the right person to ask.

You get credit for any PXP acquired by the cards, but thats it. No XP for the program, no innings

I don't play online but if I did I would not accept that one. Probably someone just hoping that they can escape without a loss.
I would accept if they were winning or maybe if it was very early and the score was still tied at 0

From reading these boards it appears to be a personal choice. I didn't realize the first time that all the stats are wiped out, so from there on I never accept. Not to be a [censored], in fact I am a pretty crummy hitter right now, and have always chosen to take my lumps, and find I am getting marginally better by just trying to learn from my previous games.
So far most of my friendly quit offers are from guys who the second I took the lead which tells me they want to have a W/L record that doesn't line up with their stats (e.g. 10-1 record but all of his hitters are under .200, or his pitchers all have almost no innings.)
So I would say it really is your choice. If you think it is a good time to accept then do it, but if you don't think it's a good time then don't.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I did not want to be committing a major faux pas and make people mad at me and get a poor reputation. I really want to compete but compete with character.

NEVER accept a friendly quit. It's a trap!

Instead of "Do onto others as you would want done onto you" .... with Friendly Quits it has to be "Do onto others the same way they do onto you" ... Easily 99% are not going to accept a Friendly Quit you ask for, so why should you accept theirs?
