So people are defending the msq dc exploit

[Mixt]

A particularly vindictive suggestion.

Give back the ability to skip cutscenes, but if there is a new player in the instance, and that player skips any of the cutscenes, nobody gets any rewards.
Grats on wasting your time, no gil or tomes or anything else for you.

And if a first timer get's vote kicked out, everyone who voted yes to the kick ALSO get kicked, as well as receive a 2 hour penalty instead of the normal 30 minute one.
Or just end the whole instance as if a Vote Abandon had passed, then hand out penalties to those who voted yes, while the newbie and those who voted no are able to reque instantly.

Like i said, vindictive as hell, but nothing less than the community deserves.

Better yet, how about all veterans just boycott MSQ roulette en masse and see how long it takes to sprouts to complain Castrum and Prae are impossible to complete?

Then we'll see if they care that much about skipping cutscenes that they have to screw the same veteran that are gladly filling up the queue for their sake.

Remember, MSQ roulette exists for veterans to fill out the queue for the sprouts, not for the sprouts to give veterans rewards.

Surely we can say that about most of the roulettes as they often help sprouts or new timers to compete the duty they originally queued up for. Granted no other duties force cutscenes but all the roulettes offer incentives regardless of who is queuing up for them.

Are...Are you saying we should force people to skip cutscenes? Because that is kinda what it sounds like, though I may be reading it wrong.

You are. "We" should let people be able to skip cutscenes. If SE doesn't want to fix the problem permanently, it's not going to be veterans that have subbed the game for many months already the ones screwed over. PF exists. FCs exist. Have people make use of them.
And inb4 "but sprouts don't know about PF" - they can learn. No one gets to 70 and learns to use PF by magic. Any time is a good time to learn about it, and running Castrum/Prae with people willing to let them just do that is a good use of the PF.

Feel free to say I don't care about sprouts. I've even took a 3-4 of them from my FC to Castrum and Prae so they could freely watch the cutscenes, because they asked for help. Kinda the same principle besides doing it through PF

Good thing no one is forced to do the MSQ roulette. It's something you voluntarily enter, with knowledge of what will likely happen, in exchange for the rewards offered for being willing to help. The best part is you can get those same rewards doing other content if you don't want to deal with the inconveniences of the MSQ roulette.

WOW That is a lot DC they might need flex tape to fix this!
