Let it only be done before entering an instance, and once after a boss fight, and if it fails once again. I don't limits, man.

Instead I'd propose a timed lockout for a person after using the feature. You get 1 chance per (ie) 10 minutes to commence a vote. If it's dismissed, and a run/player is clearly in deservence of another vote, someone else will initiate it. I mean, it takes more than 1 to pass it anyways right? -

It really doesn't bother me what happens to it, but knowing that it's going to be unusable during combat is a huge relief.Quote:

02-22-2014, 10:36 AMNova_DresdenCan you also add the name of the person initiating a vote kick or vote abandon? I'm seeing these abused a lot in things like Crystal tower.Quote:

Also regarding the Ready Check feature: can you make the default 'ready' instead of not? I went to initiate a ready check at the same moment one popped up, so my click managed to make me a 'no' when I was a 'yes'. I never even saw the full window, I clicked just as it was flashing into existence. Or a way to change from not ready to ready? that would be very useful instead of a mis click

02-23-2014, 04:08 AMMizuharuWould it be possible to also adding a feature to the Ready Check for when a player hits "No"? Because, at the moment, when people are hitting "no" in Crystal Tower, other players are assuming that they are, in fact, ready and just "trolling". The feature could be that, when you hit no, you have to select a reason for not being ready. Such as...Quote:

And make "Away from Keyboard" the default reason for if someone didn't hit either yes or no.
