Something needs to be done about tanks ruining the dungeon queue

[ashikenshin]

I rolled a healer because of instant queues. Now that it is 50 I'm doing a warrior tank (i know it sucks but w/e) just for that instant queue goodness. I'm trying to level only with dungeon runs, and a bit of fates springled here and there.

Roll a tank, it's fun and you'll be part of the solution and not the problem

Look at it this way. If there were an overabundance of tanks/healers, we would be the ones complaining about DPS doing this.
Solution: All chests removed from bosses before the final boss, and all chests that would've dropped from those bosses now drop at the final boss. 4-5 pieces of loot for rolling when the dungeon is cleared.

Best solution (IMO) is to enact a debuff that prevents a person from joining queue/DF/dungeons for X amount of minutes if they leave the group early/before the dungeon is finished.

Only thing to do is become the "fist of goodness" and teach them a lesson, but dont drop in during a dinner party while jumping on roof tops

[GinTama]

There is an easy solution to that now,

Don't pass or roll on the gear, let it expire. The tank rolled need if it dropped, just move on and don't click on the loot window they'll be like (Roll please) and just keep going, they have three options here, 1: continue, 2: Stand afk and wait on it, 3: leave and get nothing

They should pause the loot timer until the dungeon is over or everyone clicks need/greed/pass.

good idea, yes please

Trust me, you don't want me as a tank. A healer maybe...But a tank? Nope. You'd wipe so much you'll start pulling out hairs just for the comfort of knowing your still alive behind that character. x_x;

Could've swore archer/bard was a tank judging by some of my earlier dungeon runs.

As a DPS, you should know what Duty Finder entails: 20+ minute queues. If you don't want to wait, make some tank or healer friends. If you don't want to risk it, form a party on your server or pay a high level 50 to come with you for the run. As long as those chests contain valuable items while the run awards no bonus whatsoever, people will be coming in, looting your chests and then leaving. It just so happens to be tanks/healers that do this the most, but any class is capable of this. Again, make some friends instead of blaming the DF. DF = random members with no loyalties whatsoever. Accept this and move on.

There is a 15 min one. But... perhaps it would be an idea if it would accrue 'points', like say, if you leave within the first 10 mins of a dungeon so many times in an hour, you get a longer 'debuff'.
Off topic, anyone else ever be the first to leave a dungeon later on with not much time left and not get the 15 min timeout? I did once when I knew we weren't going to beat the last boss in AK (sorry again, guys I ditched, but 8 wipes and a wasted lb is positively frustrating, esp when you're rolling in full DL and ifrit weps)

Hopefully a vote to kick feature will be implemented soon.

vote kick won't work unless you have psychic powers and know these tanks will leave after opening x chests >_>

but yes we do need vote kick anyway due to some players mistreating others like they are complete garbage
