    There's a reply function on the forum, use it or it will be hard to track who you are responding to. Regardless while the system is how it is, there is a penalty for leaving content without an abandon, and if people opt to take that penalty and leave, you are not entitled to that persons time, you can certainly argue that you should be and people should get their mentor status revoked for doing it, but that leaves the system open to abuse from the other end.

    Sorry about that. And you are right you are not entitled to their time. And they are not entitled to get a mentor who would abuse them either. Which is the whole point of this post.

    I'd like to point out that a person leaving a duty, any duty, is not abuse.

    Are sprouts who don't listen and ignore the mentor abusing them? It can't be a one way thing here. It's either both or neither.

    Did I say that leaving a duty is abuse? I think if it consistently happens with a single mentor then yes, yes it is. They are abusing the roulette system and they need to be reviewed. But otherwise, it is not if you are like "Oh, they aren't listening I am leaving after trying for a while."

    You can't judge or change that tho - people not listening- Like I get what he is saying tho. It SUCKS loading into a duty any duty and a mentor instantly leaves when they see a leaf. And I'm not talking about the extremes... I've seen them do that to DUNGEONS. I'll never forget when I was learning a healer and I mentioned this. The mentor instantly left and yes.. it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Everyone likes to blame the leafs and new people first, but it's a two way street like you said. Mentors have that rep cause the bad ones gave it to them. - Keep in mind all my bad mentor experiences are from normal apparently easy mode dungeons :/- In my ver limited expierence it's never the new players that are the bad ones... it's been mentors who mess up mechs, don't listen, have bad tudes etc etc etc. And the system serious does need a rework tho. Why defend a broken system no matter who is at fault?

    This part. The rest is a bit once sided against all mentors and it's not all of them. But this is the whole point that you said right here.

    In my defense I do say it's very limited expience. But it's context cause most people want to blame the leafs. I'm just saying it's not just leafs who do the things people are complaining about. Thats all.

    If a mentor abuses you, just report them.
    That being said, while annoying, someone leaving early isn't abuse.
