The current system of rewarding exp, series, and tomes at the end of a match because one clicked 'commence' on the duty pop without taking their performance into consideration is being abused by players who refuse to participate.
These players often try to mask the fact they're not participating by constantly throwing themselves at enemy players, because it makes it more difficult to spot them vs someone standing in one spot on the map the entire match.
Once the game ends, it doesn't matter that the scoreboard shows them having thrown the match because they have already received their rewards, and are off to do it again with a new group of people in a new match.
Even when you do end up noticing one of these players, pointing them out is quickly met with hostility, and other alliance members trying to defend them. "It's just Frontlines" and "I'm only here for the exp" constantly being used as if to excuse their behavior.
It has been way past due to fix the broken system that allows such lethargic and poor behavior. Relying on players to send nearly a full-party worth of player reports after every match isn't a functional system.
