What is your view on Duty Finder leeching?

I had a whm in the cutscene during the final boss. The entire fight. We won with just the sch healer but still...

I'm a DPS and have yet to experience this fantasy....

Wow, sounds like a real dick move. sitting in a corner like that and watching a party defeat a mob.

There's quite a few things SE can do for that situation which only affects the people afking or "vanishing till the boss dies" - It's pretty obvious when people are leeching compared to people actually needing to AFK at the wrong moment - you're fooling no one in the long run.

So we are a few minutes into the boss fight and i get an important phone call that i have to answer immediately i am not going to type "afk" or "brb phone" and if i come back and the boss is dead and i get a reward oh well

I'm ok with the vote kicking but only if it requires 3-0 (light party) and 7-0 (full party) votes to kick people.

I report them for griefing personally. They are purposely negatively affecting everyone else's game experience. It IS against the rules under the Inappropriate Behavior section of the "Prohibited Activities" list, and thus I treat it as such. They want to act like a spoiled child? Fine, I'll just make an effort to make sure they suffer the consequences and leave it at that.

Little warning, Justice Reborn received a suspension from the OF for posting a players name in this thread etc etc. Please do not post griefers names on THIS forum.

Roaman - If it takes you that long to type 'AFK' I dread to think what your red circle dodging is like :p

There is no phonecall on earth that you won't make it to by extending the run to the phone by the time it takes to type "Phone AFK". It takes, quite literally, 1.5 seconds to type that.

Which I think is stupid. Players deserve to know who the losers and leechers... just like in d2, it was widespread to call them out and "tarnish" their rep should they steal or rip someone off.
This should be done

I think that if you don't participate in the run, you shouldn't get rewarded. And we need a vote to kick feature.

In my experience, it was actually the other healer who went AFK at the start. He didn't show up until halfway through, and then spent the rest of the instance doing nothing but spamming Medica II and Regen. At the last boss, he deliberately got himself killed. I ressed him, he clicked the Raise icon off and released to the entrance so he wouldn't have to heal the rest. :-\
