Dungeon Queue Penalty

I think the penalty should be harsher. For example, if you queue for roulette main scenario, and get castrum instead of praetorium, and decide to quit the dungeon, you should be locked out of both for the day. Come back tomorrow and try again.

Many here have a very valid point. I don't know why you posted in the first place if aren't able to handle the opinions of others. No ones trolled you, but gave their honest opinion, which most pretty much agreed with. Expecting nothing but thumbs and everyone agreeing with you is just as much a pipe dream, as you wanting to back out of a queue any time you wish and not get penalized. People here want you to think about what you are asking for and how silly it is. I didn't see one angry post, just a person with a chip on their shoulder.

If you’ve got so much time on your hands then, why are you complaining about repeatedly missing a queue? And why is 30 minutes such a big deal? As you said, you have all 24 hours of the day. Clearly there’s no time crunch involved with regards to finishing your dailies, so that “lost” 30 minutes should be fairly inconsequential to you. Why are you so mad about it? Honestly, if anyone is being a “kid” around here, it would be you whining about something that can be easily avoided.

That’s the problem with some people who come to forums: they can’t handle opposing opinions and simply expect an echo chamber—and then get mad when that’s not what they get.

I love how those comments are already on the first page. You tell them the sitch, and they immediately say "why queue 3 times within 24 hrs to do thing when other thing you need to do!!!!"

Granted, the point made by others that actually address the question is valid; random people can be dicks, therefore they created an anti-dick measurement.....no pun intended (?)

But the life advice is too good. "Thing works for me, therefor I'm puzzled by your issue."

The point is that the game is already pretty lenient. You can drop up to 3 times before being penalized, and 30 minutes isn't even that long in the scheme of things

Of course sometimes stuff happens, but most of the time if you need to drop 3 times, you probably just need to get whatever is going on in your life settled first. The answer people are giving isn't "don't have a life", its "handle your life first, then play"

I agree, this is essentially the answer people are giving. However OP stated they aren't looking for advice on how to handle their life, it was a complaint on a system mechanic, which was also answered.

The penalty exists because players were trolling the system and inconveniencing others. To be honest, you sound like one of the trolls more than you sound like a retired person.

If you're old enough to be retired, you've lived long enough to learn how to manage your time and prioritize your activities. You're experienced enough to know to take that walk to the bathroom before you queue instead of waiting until after. You're wise enough to know that missing dungeon queues in a game is not a big deal and that someone disagreeing with you does not make them a troll.

Looks like you somehow failed to achieve any of that during your work career. Now you've got something to work on during your retirement years.

I'm wondering right now if OP is trolling because my brain is refusing to believe a retirement-age person could be this obtuse and pre-emptively calling everyone trolls. Or seemingly not actually reading the responses. But then, I've met people who love finding bullshit reasons to keep an argument going so who even knows?

The whole "I'm retired and have 24-hrs to play" thing kinda contradicts them supposedly having a life, so I'm going to lean troll until proven otherwise.

In case this is real though, everyone's point still stands: Take care of your damn life first and don't queue if you know you'll have stuff going on. Otherwise, learn to live with it. I only have a sparse few hours a night if I'm lucky and I freaking make do by learning to time estimate better.

P.S. Yes, I've missed a queue once or twice because I had to use the bathroom but not in the same day. Probably because it's simply a case of my bladder having lousy timing, lol!

Protip to OP: Taking No. 2s while queueing is a literally shitty idea.
