From people afk'ing in dungeons, to people refusing to help kill trash, to severely undergeared players, we need the ability to remove players from an instance to better the playing experience for others. A voting system would be even better.
Granted, this could be a double-edged sword as there are a ton of douche bags out there (mostly thanks to the porting of ARR to the PS3) who would abuse this system just to grief other players. And I'm willing to deal with this just as long as the rest of us can use it for justifiable reasons.
Why isn't this already implemented is beyond me.
Also, the ability to add players in Hard Mode instances is needed, as well.
Actually, the whole Duty Finder needs a make over. To start, the DF should have filters that add players to groups by their selected experience option. Maybe have a gear ilvl requirement to enter particular dungeons. So many things...but the "remove player" function should be priority!
We need a "Remove Player" function in dungeons!

I agree! I've had so many idiot tanks not useing Flash or Provoke and just useing normal strikes. And as a healer, when I have 8 monsters on me, it hurts a lot!

The Duty Finder is getting an iLvl check soon so that takes care of the undergeared problem for the later dungeons. Also, I'm a PS3 ARR player and I'm far from a douchebag. Just getting that out there.

I just came from Toto Rak with a conjurer who acted like a DPS -_-, so much so that she would aggro all the hate from the tank. Then brings mini-boss to me (thaumaturge) as the boss is about to use poison attack instead of tank, mini-boss poisons me, she doesnt heal, I die....then she blames me for dying and tries to tell me what to do and continues to act elitist throughout the dungeon -_-. Some Cactuar pc named Ari Poparet. Wouldve been great if she couldve been replaced with another healer on the fly. :)

If 3 of the 4 players in the dungeon agree that they don't want to play with a 4th, then let them kick the person, instead of having the whole party be ruined. Maybe give them priority in the queue, just in case they were unfairly kicked or something.

09-18-2013, 03:14 PMCeolWat. The douchebags have, by and large, come from other PC gaming communities — think WoW, LoL, DoTA2. Those gaming communities are toxic as all hell. PS3 players are mostly casuals who want to lay in bed while they play.Quote:

They started trolling me in the end (moving out of range for protect refresh, Scholar and Black Mage both needing on the level 17 robe) because I used the limit break. We had it back in time for the last boss still... >.> I just laughed since I cross class protect and I already have the robe they ninja'd, but still I would hate to have been kicked for no reason there.Quote:

The reason there isnt a vote to boot a player option is because Douchebags like you guys would boot someone for the slightest mistake. And well, guess what we are humans and we make them. As for undergeared players, how the Hell are they supposed to get good gear unless they run those endgame quests. Soon however they are going to put a Equivalent Item level for certain dungeons anyhow, so you can quit bitching about that. And Im the kind of tank the if you start what I like to call backseat tanking when im around I will purposely let you eat the hate. So you hateful ass healers, and dps's guess what, be hateful to your tank. However cruddy they may be, and they might decide to do what I do and let your SQUISHY ass die. Enough said.

There's a difference between slightly undergeared and just stupid...aka this pugilist (didn't even have monk unlocked)

:0 . Ok then, well Taban you pose a valid point. That gear , and lack of Job on a level 50 is horrid. They really shouldn't be in AK.

Maybe run a DPS check, and if you're severely under the average DPS/Heal per second (maybe offset for tanks) then it becomes possible to boot you. This should be very generous so it's really meant for people trying to AFK for a CM run etc
I'd say you'd have to be really below average to qualify for a boot, maybe if you're using a lvl 30 weapon in a 50 dungeon and don't know your rotations - or obviously AFK. -

I'm pretty sure that since this thread was started, SE stated that duty finder will have minimum gear level requirements for instances. Probably with the 2.1 update.

A remove player would be a horrible idea at this stage of the game's life....
too many baddies that rely on other baddie's point of view..
Case in point, I'm had my Ifrit Battleaxe equipped, and a piece of DL gear, and the rest AF....and I was told I was too undergeared for AK, despite the fact that I cleared it once before.
...if that moron had his way with a "Remove Player" function, no body in this game would get anywhere...
There has to be a very specific criteria involved for a function like this to work properly. -

> Let's kick people for being undergeared.
NO. Come 2.1, if someone can queue for a dungeon, THEY ARE NOT UNDERGEARED. Period, the end, your opinion is irrelevant. SE is adding minimum gear levels to dungeons. If you're going to use the Duty Finder, deal with it. I could and would report you for voting to kick someone because you think they are undergeared.
> Let's kick people because they're new/watching cutscenes.
NO. This is flagrant abuse of the system. The Duty Finder is there for new players to be able to experience and learn encounters, as much as it's there for everyone else. If you cannot deal with this, do not bother using the Duty Finder. Make a premade group.
> Let's kick people because they're being care bears!
NO. Seriously people, you want to kick people because they're nice and try to support newer players who need help? Again, just... don't use the Duty Finder if that's your outlook. You're pretty much PLANNING to abuse the system with these ideas.
