Needed... Ability to ditch a hopeless party.

Much to my annoyance, it seems that there's no way to quit an instance in progress if the party you get stuck with ends up being totally hopeless. It's one thing to have no communication, it's one thing to have people completely ignore common sense and run head first into the boss room time and again, locking the party out or pulling everything onto them every time... Despite the numerous deaths of this person from doing exactly that.

A single character should not have to carry the whole darn instance or waste a whole hour and a half of their time if they get stuck with utter morons. Unfortunately, logging out for several minutes doesn't seem to make you drop group reliably. Nor can you vote to kick people out of early instances.

Click the Duty Finder icon in your duty list or main menu, click the Leave button.

That is one option, but it doesn't work when there is only one person causing all the problems. There needs to be a vote to kick option in the DF, or no penalty for first dungeon left in a day.

This does need to happen, but is not what OP was talking about

While I agree that a vote-kick option is needed we don't need it for the reasons stated above.
Queues for a dungeon can sometimes be long especially for DDS classes.
And so when the tank DCs or something then there's no way to continue since we can't look for a new tank.
The only thing left to do at that point is for someone to leave rendering them unable to re-queue for 15 minutes which no-one wants to do.
Same applies with people who just go AFK for no reason.
Happened many times before to have a DDS just put himself on follow and leave for half an hour.
People like that need to be kicked and so far, we can't do that :(

We need something. I was in a run with two other FC members and the random DPS PUG we got was clueless. When we tried to help and tell him how to do the fight he called us trolls, said he was only 50 for 1 day (this was a Keep run) and said he sucked. We pulled him through to the last boss but it was clear we couldn't do it with him. When we asked nicely (at first) for him to leave so we could finish it he refused said he was "having a good time" and then said when I wouldn't pull the boss "going for a smoke". And so we where denied our end reward because he wouldn't leave for us to get a replacement.

That is a broke system.

Being locked out of requeuing is a better option than having to sit down and wait out the instance timer. Regardless of class since you can do something else during that time. Being stuck in a dungeon because you have one or more people with their head up their arse or who are purposely trolling to the point where the rest of the group can't carry through just makes other PUGs have to suffer.

Was doing several runs as a conjurer subclass in early dungeons... From what I saw, most of the problem-makers were dps classes... So having them get a free-ride because of everyone carrying through the dungeon, instead of someone who actually wants to play that dungeon, only serves to penalize other queued DPS.

if they add a kick option then it would get heavily abused by impatient ignorant elitest ragers who explode on the smallest little fault,no just no
