This is excellent. You queue'd for something, you withdraw more than three times, now you can't queue for a day. This is excellent.

Some queues can get pretty long. You get up for a drink, have to use the restroom, you're in the middle of crafting or you're in battle on the wrong class at the wrong time and all of a sudden you're down a strike.

This kind of thing was bad when it's repetitive, 1 day seems very very strict. 3 withdraws within an hour or so seems like it should be more than sufficient to curb bad behavior.

Besides, depending on how bad the penalty is, it may be better to just join the queue and withdraw or "disconnect" immediately. How is that any better? I'ts not. This solution is incredibly ham fisted and is just asking for trouble.

So you've never made a premade group and then a FC member asked if they could go just as the que popped and withdrew? That happens all the time when I play.

this too.


EDIT: Honestly, the real problem is people fishing for in progress runs. They really need another option that is *in progress only* and then change *every* in progress display to work like it does for CT, ie: it only displays 0/1 so you don't know what boss it's on. Those who absolutely *must* have in progress queues can fight with each other over them (without knowing if it's last boss or not) while the rest of us can actually queue for a dungeon.

The OTHER thing they should do is not completely drop the group if one person withdraws. If you have 23 people all ready to go for CT/ST and one person drops or doesn't click ok, immediately replace with another member and restart the timer without having to wait for everyone to confirm. Only drop the full group if there are no more of the needed type in the queue or this has happened a couple times in a row. Something to that effect would also improve things greatly.
