People afking in Diadem

Joining the Diadem and refusing to do a single thing is a real problem.
You can't expect people to do the objective for you. Everyone need to do it together.

These people are doing this because they know we can't do anything against that.

Or how about after the objectives are completed entire parties leave making it that more difficult to complete the Emergency Mission if it pops.

Unmitigated, this is EXACTLY what just happened to me right now.
Emergency Mission and i was alone...

This is precisely because he didn't do anything during the main objectives and twice. Someone even asked him to come to help dps, no response.

Oh. Sorry missed that part.

Hmmm. That may be reportable actually. Try reporting him and see what happens.

Almost every run now is some kind of horror story for me, but last night was a gem.

Get in, finish the mission in about 12 min, everyone flies up to check their loot. And then nothing, just standing there. I ask them if we're gonna do some fates for more boxes or if they intend on sitting on their butts for the rest of the run, they declare butts indeed. Then these lazy bastards have the nerve to tell me "well you're free to do as you wish". No, I am not. I entered to run with a party, not try to solo 4min fates for scraps! And I'm sure as hell not flying around for treasure boxes cause I refuse to let these guys free roll on loot for just standing around!! Follow that by one of the people saying "well running for damaged lockboxes are a waste of time if you know what you're doing". What!? Those are the frikkin loot! That's the point! And the final comment that just broke me was "well you should go fish or something". You bastards if I wanted to fish I wouldn't have entered diadem fury!

So I flew around, purple worm happened, yay, then at 30min I left. I'm glad emergency did not happen cause I was not going to help people like that in any way. And THIS is what has become of diadem in less than a week. You wonder why people sabotage the EM? They probably had a party like mine.

I suppose that can have a 2min afk auto kick that exists in Frontlines, though that can easily be circumvented via running to a wall or jumping every min ... but it's something.

Sadly, this was bound to happen. FATEs are notoriously hated and the only real complying reason to queue into Diadem is the Emergency Mission. That doesn't make it right, of course, but there needs to me more incentive to actually do things.

Sigh. So so SO disappointing that SE opted to just shove high level weapons in here for incentive rather than make fun content everyone can do. Sigh. This is what happens when you make raiders who only want the weapons feel forced to run this type of content

They should make Fate worth doing it, or open a hunt for big mobs with better rewards than fates.
Something that make us worth waiting for the emergency mission.

I remember the first time Diadem was around and maybe it's changed now, but to that time you had plenty of people just afking or going to gather, leaving parties with 2 or 3 people that couldn't do anything in there. When that was reported, we got the answer that we could use the player removal function, which we pointed out weren't available in the Diadem to that time. After that we've been told that sometimes issues like that could occur but that there's nothing that can be done, the only way we could avoid being frustrated is leaving the duty and taking the 30 minute lockout, as well as the 30 minute waiting timer before re entering via ishgard. Again I don't know if that has been changed and I am not writing this to offend someone or saying someone did a bad job, but if it is anything like the old Diadem, you're frankly out of luck.
