Once I get disconnected when I was in a party, I log back on straight away and my friend says that why did you leave. I would always say that I got disconnected as my ping rose up to 120000 and thats the max. Shouldn't the devs make that when someone leaves by lag, why can't it say (example)"Asommers got disconnected" instead of Asommers left the party. Anybody agree??

Thats what I'm saying, instead of popping out on your screen saying (example) Asommers left the party, it would be better if you actually lagged out saying Asommers lagged out.

I seriously doubt asommers will be lagging out, and if he does something is seriously wrong....;)

LOL. Please could you signpost ur sarcasm? [This is sacasm]
On Topic: I'm thinking from a coding point of view there might not be an obvious difference from someone leaving a game and someone disconnecting for any reason. It may well be difficult to differentiate between them, and therefore difficult to pop-up different messages.
Nice idea though if it is possible...

I agree that someone leaving a party willingly should somehow be differentiated from someone being disconnected.
For example:
-StompArtist has left the party - vs - StompArtist's connection has dropped. Again -

You never know.
It might be possible.
Purposely leaving a game involves a few menu selections.
Being disconnected is just someone disappearing without doing those menu selections.
If leave dungeon via menu selections, then "left the party", else "got disconnected".
It's a good thought, but I think it wouldn't be possible to differentiate between "lagging out", "logging out" and "leaving game"...I think it'll just have to remain how it is, and say "____ has left the game"...whether this is because you lagged out, logged out, or if you actually decided to just leave the game.:)

It is possible and probably very simple.. Ive played other games and when someone lagged out it would say Blah has timed out or something similiar to that. These guys coded a game engine for a phone pretty sure they could figure it out, atleast id hope so. Edit- Game im thinking of is called Gunz online when you lagged out it would say blah has timed out but if you left on your own it would just say blah has left.
