Problems with ST queue taking a long time for tanks

[Gerolan]

A tank needing to wait for a queue to pop, I doubt anyone that's ever qued as DPS for anything would feel any sympathy, myself included.
Suck it up and wait it out, your special snowflake title doesn't include ST

Ahahaha a tank crying about queue times. Poetic Justice? Revenge? I can't quite put my finger on this emotion I'm feeling, but it feels good.

Wait over two hours for a dungeon, then we'll talk.

After all the times it took me an extra 30 min+ past the first queue pop to get into CT/ST because of constant queue fishing.... this just made my day. Except for the fact I can't get this one song out of my head... "Cry me a riiiverrr... whoa.... cry me a riiiverrrr!"

Taking long for a lot of people. I have not been able to get in on WHM since yesterday and last night my raid group, a full party tired for 45 min with no pop.

The most likely reason why people withdraw is that they've unknowingly selected more then one instance to enter when queuing and the wrong one pops up. And preventing players from using the duty finder is going to make wait times worse, not better.

This could easily be fixed by having the penalty take place if someone withdraws more than once in a 30mins period when the instance pops, not when its still searching for players.

This way people withdrawing when they notice its not a run in progress get punished and those who withdraw after queuing wrong instances or because the instance isnt popping, dont.

After that if you queue more than once for the wrong instance then the penalty will teach you to pay more attention to what you're doing.

I never expected the day I would see a thread about tanks complaining about queue times being too long for them lmao.

I will agree that 3 tanks is not enough for CT. You need one to MT, one to take the adds, and at least 7 more fighting for hate with the boss trying to MT.

The only problem with ST is like its predessor people fish for last bosses. What it needs is randomized loot so people will stop that crap.
