A) Party is not fully competent (ie: Players have FATE Ground to 50 and haven't learned their jobs or rotations).
B) Party is Undergeared (Titan HM Requires 3200+ Health minimum during Phase 5).
C) Party is not learning from their mistakes.
D) A 15 minute penalty is nothing to someone who just wants to destroy the time of 7 other people.

Tanks and healers will get a new group quickly, but those 4 dps will likely have to requeue and possibly sit there for an hour + all because someone wanted to be "that guy".

They could always just make it so people can only join while the group is out of combat.
