    Yes there is. if a duty dings, and you click withdraw you get a strike. 3 of them and your locked out of duty finder for 30 minutes...

    So under your suggestion and the image you linked when the duty finder makes a party and dings it would tell you if someone in that party is new.. so what I said was would you then allow people to withdraw without penalty... or would you force them to either eat the 30 minutes or help a newbie clear it even if they specifically joined the duty finder to farm...

    once again the raid finder does not exclude anyone from content. the only thing it does it stop you joining a farm party if you have not cleared the fight. it does not stop you in any way from joining or creating a learning party or a clear party so you can still do the content... you are not excluded..

    just because you can't join a farm party does not mean you cannot do the content at all.... it's common sense really because if people who had never cleared content were excluded from it how the hell would anyone ever get in that content in the first place...

    A self contradiction.

    An irrelevant comment that has nothing to do with anything that I said.
    Please read what I wrote and make sure you understand it before writing any more nonsensical replies. You're arguing with me over things I didn't say or you're arguing with yourself.



    You're not penalized for declining duty participation if you're queued with a complete party. You're only penalized when you are matched with random people.

    The image is of the duty finder window, not the queue window. The one that you have to look at before you queue. There would be opportunity for people to see it before confirming participation. Besides that, you're not penalized for declining duty participation if you're queued with a complete party. You're only penalized when you are matched with random people. If you're queued with a complete party, you're not penalized for declining duty participation.

    You say the raid finder is not exclusionary, and then explain exactly how it's exclusionary.

    The final statement is so absurd I don't even know where to begin. At no time did I say that new people should be able to join farm parties, nor that new people were suffering from not being able to join farm parties, nor that people making farm parties should have to accommodate new people. I very much did say that people who want to farm should get seven other farm-minded people together via party finder, and that a simple indicator should tell the party if everyone has cleared the content they're about to queue for. I also did say that the raid finder is unnecessary, because it is nothing more than a duty finder with an "I want to exclude new people" button. So just get rid of the raid finder and give people a simple indicator that tells you if everyone in your preformed party has cleared the content.
