    Missed ONE >>1<< Duty Finder commence, and now I have 30 minutes penalty.

    How can you screw up such simple coding? This was my second duty today. The first one commenced very quickly and had no withdraws. I was under the impression that the counter resets every day.

    I had a party yesterday which had some afk people so there was two timed out duties during the time i was in the party.

    I should not be penalised for something not under my control. Why should withdraws in a full party even be counted, or why does it apply to the other seven people who didn't push withdraw?

    I welcomed this change when i read the patch notes, but it's obvious that this wasn't well thought out and implemented in a sloppy way.

    Working as intended. The ONLY TIME you get penalized while queueing with a full pt is when you queue for CT/ST/FL. This is the only time becuase if you withdraw it screws over the 16 others. Makes perfect sense to me. I've queued for SCoB with a full pt, had people withdraw and no penalty. So if you got a penalty you probably queued for something that took more that 1 full pt.
    Best way to solve this problem is to do a ready check before queue and kick/stop pting with trolls.

    What shocks me more is that people are "Surprised" by this rule. It was in the patch notes. And there's been a multitude of threads started over this and in each one people act like they have never heard of this before. I just don't get it....

    Bull. I did not do ST. We were doing Howling Eye (Hard) yesterday. And someone was afk while the party leader queued, so naturally it timed out. This happened twice.

    Even if that is true. The others should not be penalised for one players actions.

    Then you weren't a full premade. I know for fact that queuing an 8-man with a full party does not penalize you because I had multiple withdraws from people during Shiva EX runs with no penalty.

    The daily reset hasn't happened yet. That timer resets at 9am PST so there's still an hour and 45 mins until reset. Make proper use of Ready Check and this typically won't happen.

    I do like the new changes but some things make it broken.

    Like I queued up for garuda hm during nexus bonus, teleported to Mor dhona (big mistake)
    Queue popped during loading screen and it canceled before loading screen was done.

    And I got locked out 30 min for that...
