    You can't make an "Only In Progress Feature", because if every tank used only that feature no party could ever form to begin with. So you're never going to see that.

    SE intended Join In Progress as a means of helping out parties that had lost a member, so that they could progress without needing to start over, not as a shortcut. To a certain extent they'll accept this happening, but there's always a breaking point. If people keep dropping and queuing all over again, SE probably will take measures against it.

    you assume that its not intended it very well could be that this is working as it should be. But it may not be as well. but untill SE says hey dont do this no one has the right to say people should be "banned " for it thats absurd. Its currently an accepted practice by SE an in such people shouldnt care. since it doesnt impact them at all in a negative way.

    right but thats not doing anything to you...... you dont have to click commence every time that pops.... and if that person wasnt queueing you still would be waiting all that time for someone looking for a full party anyways. So nothing changes except a little bit of spam of the window popping up.

    1) It's like being spam by gil spammers annoying the hell out of me.
    2) I shouldn't have to pay attention to see if it someone will withdraw or not over and over and if I wait too long then I get withdrawn.

    you shouldnt have to wait for more hten 10 seconds... there is like what a 30 second timer on the pop up. the person withdrawing doesnt right away so if the window stays up for more hten 5-10 seconds then its mostly likely gonna be a full party for a full run. maybe 1 person might end up afk and it go the full timer but that doesnt happen that often. So this is a non issue.

    10 seconds for 10mins, 20mins, or even longer for every time commence pops up to me is annoying as hell. One or two times it pops up you hit commence, you get in vs check check check check check check check check ok I think it's finally going through this time.

    Look no one enjoys farming and skipping steps when possible is nice especially if you don't have the time to play but the system as it is right now is a big annoyance.

    At the same time, why was the person doing the withdrawing making love to the queue button? It's obvious the queue is trying to pair them with a fresh group. Instead of queueing up 5 times per minute, they could have just waited a few minutes then tried again to give the DF time to ship that party off with another player. Who's to say another player in the needed role wasn't queued but during one of those times when spammy got paired with the same group, the second player got diverted off to the next group waiting in line?

    becaues you never know when someone is gonna drop from a dungeon and you want to be the first one in to that inprogress group.

    Yes for 10mins or longer every time it goes into commence mode.

    What's so hard to understand? Yes both can take just as long but one makes it so you have to keep checking. For something that can take nearly an hour at times, it's a major inconvenience.
