Why are server shutdowns pictured as the killer's fault? Everyone thinks I keep DC'ing.

About three times today I've had the "dedicated server is not responding" message, cutting the game every time. But in the end screen, I'M the one with the DC icon and the survivors got to keep their bloodpoints. I even got a DC penalty from this, every time. Great, now everyone thinks I'm ragequitting and my DMs are filled with lovely mail from survivors who thought they were the #########.

Am I missing something?

    If it's truly a server issue disconnecting all players, then the disconnect icon usually shows up for each person as if they disconnected.

    If you're actually disconnecting regularly, and others are also seeing you disconnect, there may be something on your end that is interrupting the connection instead, and it might not be a server issue.
