Need harsher penalties.

Kept reading those as backflipping.

Same here....

OP hasn't said anything in six pages. Gee, I wonder why.

I mean, this is probably a troll post. People are riled it seems.. so job accomplished? Though, i have seen too many requests for this exact kind of thing so i don't know.

Assuming this post is legitimate, i have to wonder one thing.. "Do people that demand harsher punishments know how humanity works?" When activities/rules are needlessly punishing and the participation of said activity doesn't give a tangible benefit , people normally forgo participating at all. All harsher punishments will do is (a)Annoy people because the system they know is changing needlessly and (b) make some people not bother at all with the content at all as they don't want to worry about the hassle it entails.

The saying "you get more flies with honey than vinegar" applies here as well. If you want more people to remain in content, etc.. you need to make it worth their time. Why do/did people leave content when they see the dungeon? Because the content within that dungeon/raid is for one reason or another distasteful and they would rather eat a penalty than do that content.
The only way to deal with this is to make sure people have a benefit from the content.. do people hate Orbonne? A lot do and the answer to stop people from leaving is to increase the rewards from it (say an extra gear piece at the end or additional DF rewards if you get it; just for examples).

People are far too flippant, and the game is far too easy.

Penalties need to be significantly more strict.

**leave unchanged the 3 times failure to accept queue penalty. That one works perfectly fine, and can easily be user error. The below listed are nigh unacceptable behavior.**


-Leaving a party finder after joining.

30 minute duty finder/party finder penalty (this would be a new penalty to discourage party finder trolls.)

-Leaving a duty after initiating accept

1 hour duty finder penalty (this is an existing penalty but would be doubled in penalty time.)

-Leaving 3 duties within a 1 week period

48 hour Duty finder/party finder ban (this would be a new penalty to discourage flippant people.)



No one is going to agree, but really there is no reason these numbers shouldnt be doubled or even tripled. "The likelihood of someone accidentally falling into these guidelines is slim to none."

If people are expected to read warnings such as buying the right equipment and dealing with 1 time item restores or, sending the wrong mog station items to the wrong character, or accidentally making someone master of a Free Company and them stealing everything, then you should also be equally responsible for reading the correct party finder, and queue'ing and entering the correct duties.

Yes, signed.

Im sick of ppl that cant be bothered to read the PF or consider that they might have only 10 min for a 15 min duty lol. Also those nice guys entering, waiting 2 min, leaving as it didnt fill imidiatly, with other players repeating that a 5x or more >_>

Mm, nah, no thanks. I'd rather not be held hostage by players who can't be bothered to press buttons. Especially in PF.

So I should stay in a party where the DPS has more hp than the Tank, got it.

Legit been in parties where I have the most HP. . . AS A HEALER and then tanked the whole run.

TRRRROOOOLLLLLL!!!!!! arrgghhh

Seriously people wake up

[Halivel]

Obviously a bait, but in case some single spirit believes it's a good idea:

It's basically "how to make the entire playerbase turn into DoH/DoL mains" because they just will be banned from DF/PF forever for leaving bad parties. Thanks, but no.
