Leaving party against TOS?

[Johnist]

If you were leaving to Grief them (ie: you left because you were trying to speed run via DF, and got a party that wasn't Speed Run Applicable (DRGx2, DRG+MNK, MNKx2, etc)) then yes, you could be reported for Harassment and Preventing player progression.

But in your example you were the one being Griefed. You had the right to leave the party (taking 15 minute Penalty). You also had the right to report the person griefing you for harassment, if you feel it bordered on that. However, if they go over the log and find you had reported falsely (or reported falsely) they can take the reporter and bring them to GM Jail where they can 'sit them down' and discuss with them the error in reporting (especially if they have shown a tendency of false reports).

However, he is accurate that purposeful idling in a dungeon is a Violation of the Terms of Use as it is considered an attempt to hinder player progression. In your situation, you should have just left instead of saying you would idle.

Nope, not even in that case is it reportable. Idling in a dungeon is also not reportable.
