    @Hyominpark.

    I mentioned increasing base tomes and lowering completion bonus to equalize out 90 tomes at end of day but make it easier to grind out tomes earlier in a day. The problem is alot of players just can't have a 30 minute opening each and every day, so having a 2-3 spontaneous window to grind out tomes is nice. At 40 tomes a dungeon instead of say 60 (with completion bonus lowered to 30) this is -way-more difficult to achieve cap.

    This isn't the thread to to discuss my takeaway from anecdotes about behaviors, if I do that it will be to PMs to better explain situations. Otherwise it's considered derailing from topic of thread title. Yes, a GM decides misbehavior. It is why I'm not bothering posting any screenshots of former abuse. Validation from players will do nothing for me or this thread. I don't need people agreeing with me or disagreeing with me if I was in wrong or right. I'm needing developer consideration for a suggestion that a -GM- thought was a good idea to suggest here which they will get by reading innately.

    As for being denied a completion bonus and not receiving rewards, I'll agree to disagree. Most services in the real world that take your money will reimburse you for people cheating you out of reward or 'payment' for a service by either real currency as in insurance agencies, or virtual currency in video games. There's some servers of mmos that my donation items have gotten intervened and stolen by the delivery and all a GM has to do is track that item code, remove it from the game, ban the player and give me back the item. It's not a farfetched concept.

    I won't get an end game bonus because I didn't manage to complete the dungeon -because- players denied me it. GM's can determine that fault.
    I brought up my WoW experience by comparison to explain another experience where a player cheated me out of progress (in addition to destroying all my gear selling it), and I was reimbursed. I didn't participate in the arena season that week, but the service providers understood that 100%. My progression was restored because I pay money for a service and other players abused a feature to wall me off from it. Rhetoric: I don't deserve that week of conquest which is paramount to maintaining my Arena Rank in Cataclysm BECAUSE I couldn't complete it? Blizzard seemed to think otherwise and compensated. Square hasn't refused this, they simply haven't considered it. It's not my goal to QQ about 1 company and not the other. A GM said it's never been suggested and so here I am.

    To those that spoke you can just simply re-q, consider the common situation I already detailed: DPS in queue for near close to half hour for an alliance raid that is new in 5.X patch. Few people memorized the fights, there's alot of wipes. People start becoming irate, maybe dps checks aren't met. Fingers pointed, boom booted. Near 1/2 hour Queue and probably 1 hour progress lost. Full time jobs or full time with children aren't going to have a schedule so forgiving for that, and thus leads to huge unsubbing and loss of $$$ for Square, which is their goal.

    I can't think of a solution yet for lost gear and a thread may be made if it comes to mind, but the Alliance Raid coin would be nice to obtain IF GM finds foul play and you didn't do anything to instigate it. This isn't a problem for me specifically as I only roll healer/tank.
