"Round Robin" Leaders in BGs..

Ok Blizz,

Round Robining Raid Leaders basically ruins group strategy in the BGs.

Here we are in yet another loosing AB weekend for alliance in my battlegroup... There I go! I get raid lead to re-org the groups into something civilized! There it goes... to the next person that joins. And the next... and the next... so finally we have yet another raid leader AFK!

Its frustrating enough losing non-stop in the bgs, but the inability to so much as pretend to use tactics and have it ripped away by in game mechanics just violently tosses all hope over the edge. My battleground has a 20% win rate in AB.... AT BEST! Yes, this is statistically high from factual data.... but whose counting right?

Not to /whine and vent too much, but this "heres your pre-made strategy" syndrome you have in PvP is benign. The map defines the course of action, not the players.

There's at least one bug causing leadership to be passed around for no discernible reason, and we're currently investigating and hope to have it resolved in an upcoming patch.

I think we're fine with it being first-to-join, but the problem is keeping it there.
