    It's happened to me too and it is frustrating, even when I play as one of my healers with the shorter wait time. People are so disrespectful of others' time.

    Short story. I queued up for what I thought was Amp Township (I was really tired and not paying attention) but quickly realized I had chosen wrong when the Amp Keep cut scene began. Even though I had no desire to do Amp Keep, I didn't ditch. I stayed through the whole instance.

    Report them for what? Leaving a duty is not against the rules, even if it's done immediately after zoning in. It's inconvenient for the other players, absolutely, but it's not actionable behavior. You're just wasting GM time and making support queues even longer than they already are.

    The game already has a built-in penalty for doing this sort of thing, it's called the 30-minute leaver cooldown.

    How did they harass you? They inconvenienced you, sure, but they did nothing to harass you. If before leaving they said, "eww, Pharos again, screw this dungeon and screw you guys, have fun looking for another tank!" then sure, you might have a case.

    But otherwise, for all you know an emergency could have come up and they simply had to leave immediately. You have no way of knowing what the reason was, and neither does the GM, so the person will not get banned and you are still wasting GM time.

    Yes, its a different issue from getting kicked by a group of players than if somebody leaves on his own. There can always be the excuse made that it was an emergency and he had to go with no way to disprove it otherwise. Instead of reporting them we should keep talking about it on forums and such, and have the game itself find a way to handle with these players.
