Dear Tanks who withdraw from duty queue:

...COME ON! -_-

Lol...as much as i agree with you that's how it is for now unless SE changes things, players will do what they wanna do...no matter how much it annoys other players in queue.

Why does everyone blame tanks for this? If you watch the numbers on the duty queues you can easily see healers and DPS are withdrawing just as often. Still annoying, of course, but tanks are hardly the sole or even primary withdrawers.

No. There's no doubt tank is the one to blame here, except, we're talking on different issues.

Until SE put a 30 min cooldown on the ability to use DR for a first 'withdraw' and a 1 hour block thereafter this will continue.

Yes, that's another person complaining about the exact same thing. And I'm still telling you I can watch the numbers for people accepting queues, and the last person waiting to accept that ends up withdrawing is always changing around. It's never just tanks, or even mostly tanks. It jumps all over between tanks, healers, and DPS.

I lost a spot in Embers(Hard) yesterday because I was in quest cutsceen that I could not escape/quit from and I didn't manage to force click in time. So yeah, there's that, you can't blame all withdrawn on troll play.

My wife and I are both tanks who queue for CT together. We like to kid around as it is usually that one last DPS we're waiting on when duty finder fails us.

"Oh Comon DPS! Don't you know right now a tank is reconsidering the queue?!"

When it fails we always blame the DPS (sarcastically) for making the tank wait the insanely long time of 1-2 minutes.

I think the OP is not complaining about people that withdraw from DF, but people that keep requeueing so they can enter an ongoing instance and skip part of it. Thing is, the only role that can get away with doing it is tank. Just yesterday I´ve had about 30 sequential DF popups for CT just because of this.

I am afraid we're talking about different issue then.
And I'm still telling you when these selfish tanks fishing for duty-in-progress instances, the last person waiting to accept ends up withdrawing is always tank. When this happens, it's always tank; it never jumps between other roles.
