VOTE ABANDON

"Vote Abandon" should be renamed "Leave Pharos Sirius".

Yesterday we had such a troll in CT who started vote abandon before any pull so it looked like a readycheck...

So you stayed in a CT group that sat doing nothing for 15 mins before the very first pull? And then they waited for the timer and voted to abandon? I would have done the same if an entire alliance didnt do anything for 15 minutes.

Although it wasn't a vote abandon, the other day I got Pharos Sirius in DF. Tank engaged the first trash mob, but the other DD left. So after first trash mob was done, the tank and healer quit too. So i decided to cue up replace members... only to watch DF assign people and they immediately leave.. lol.

umm... what?!
don't know what you want from me.
People are ready checking 3 times before pulls since the feature arrived and trolls can do the abandon between that.
You can see a difference (size, text) but seriously i always pray the others don't just click yes without paying attention.

Oh, you said vote abandon which has a timer before it can be used. Ready checks don't have a timer. I just took your comment too literal.

I was in a group getting trolled by the ready check throughout every fight. Someone finally said in alliance chat "everyone select no so we can kick/report who is trolling." Big surprise when the ready check box didn't come up again once the entire run. Now when I see people starting to troll I select no and ask everyone else to do the same.

I really think that "Vote Abandon" should be locked until:

- There has been at least 4 wipes of the party.
or
- There are less than the required amount of party members and 10 minutes has elapsed.

That will prevent elitists from calling a vote abandon after 1-2 wipes and also prevent prevent other trolls.

While browsing the forums tonight, this is the 2nd post of yours which I have come across that I really like.

As for my two cents, I'm glad I'm not in your servers, folks. I have never had an issue with Vote Abandon or Ready Check being used improperly over in Mateus. I mean, it helps that most of the time I can get 2 or 3 people from the fantastic FC that I'm part of, but even when I'm just on DF for CT or AK, I never have any issues. The worst problem I ever had was some douche Tank hanging back until a fight was finished, and after the 3rd time we kicked him and he was replaced by someone more competent.

However, i do see the potential based on what you guys are saying, and what Nakiamiie suggested above seems like a great alternative that SE can logistically implement without an issue.

I think it is best redo all from scratch. At least, you can do something else while waiting for groups to fill.

Lol I'm actually from mateus server too ... What's your fc name? I'm in Moogle mafia (kupo).
I wonder if we ever grouped together?
