Just wondering how many people, if any, have had this happen? I am a little worried as I tended to be rather happy with the switch teams button, especially when we had a completely shitty commander or retards on my team, and it often ended up me switching to the winning team. I also switch teams quite often to join clan mates, friends, and my bro who also plays. a while back when I found out it was against the ROE I cut down significantly on my changing team habits. my W/L is at 2.03 and I still want to go for it (currently I mainly do it by being the attacking team on maps or joining small servers and playing as a squad with my bro so we have an effect on the outcome) but I am wondering if its worth going for if there is a serious risk of getting reset for it?

Just wondering what you guys have to say on the matter? are EA very slap happy when it comes to resetting people or do they only do it if they think someone has seriously abused the system (which I feel I defiantely have not done)

i am pretty confident that EA is not going out and checking people just for having good W/L ratios, there seem to be lots of other flags that would be a much more significant flag for reset, like guys with 300+ favorite victim...and that don't get reset untill someone reports them

IF you actually get the ribbon they may check you out if there really is less that 300 people with it...but i wouldnt worry about it

a little off topic but is it confirmed that your win/loss ratio goes by which team you played the most in the round and not just which team you were on as it ended?

it is definately which team your on when the round ends, and you have to be spawned on the team to get the win or loss. So if there is a few tickets to go and you have been placed on the losing team by the server just dont spawn heh.

and yes, the fact tht very few people have it and that someone claimed that they check everyone who gets it for team switching made me wonder

war college ribbon is a bad idea award.... makes ppl switch teams, disconnect from games, give up as commander, as squad leaders, whatever to win and destroying all your effort during the game. You have no responsability for being in a team full of stat padders, noobs or a flying commander. The w/l ratio should be counted on your commander games, because it's the only time you have a real responsability. otherwise, you are screwed. It just sucks, I have been commander hours and hours, got my expert commander, my distinguished service medal but even if I do my best on the battlefield as squad leader or member, I always end up in a team that doesn't care win or lose as long as they get their explosives badge....

yes, I know, some of the awards are blatantly stupid, having said that if you want all the awards you seem to be almost forced to exploit the game to certain extents, expert exposives anyone? do they seriously expert you to ever get that through any form of normal play? purple heart?

anyways for the sake of this topic, yes I do want to get all the awards and yes WCR is one of them. I agree with you completely strato but the way it is at the moment is the way it seemingly will stay, it seems DICE only make changes unless they are almost forced to, in which case I see very little chance of requirements changing. I almost feel like playing US on karkand and MEC on sharqi is exploiting given the balance issues on them, but owell.
