"Failed to join the party."

[Renault]

Hey all, thanks for the responses.

Unfortunately, all of the factors you've mentioned were already proven to NOT be the issue.

- My ilvl was way above what was required to join the party, and if it were not, the message would be: "You do not meet the requirements to join the party" or something to that effect.

- I was not in another party, as I was able to join OTHER PF groups.

- If the spot got filled (which is did not) it would say "This party is no longer recruiting members."

This is a mystery to me.

That message only happens at 7/8 and the last spot fills as you're trying to join (Basically, someone beats you to filling the last spot.) I know there's a seperate message if, say, they a re looking for Heals+DPS, and a Healer joins, and you try to join as a healer. Might be what you're hitting?

Another, seperate cause of it is sometimes the PT may have a chocobo summoned filling the last spot. This can prevent people from joining (And likewise, the leader will be pinged telling them to dismiss chocobo iirc.)

Those are really the only two situations I can think of.
