    New DF Punishment Timer



    So 30 minutes now as punishment for leaving an instance. Bad group/failgroup/harassing members (with no vote kick option available, lets say its been used up for the day with its limited use) Griefing/AFK-ing (i know they will be kicked in 10 minutes but there are way around this you all know). And the player is punished for 30 minutes.

    I think 15 minutes was bad enough.

    30 minute punishment for abandoning a group is actually pretty standard in most mmos

    Why longer? I felt 15 was fine, 30 is ok...You still have to wait ages for a party anyways with DF.
    You will always get bad players but here's hoping people won't jump ship as much anymore.

    So you're basically stuck in a terrible group with no one willing to take the 30 minute hit till 2.15 where the party can vote to give up. How many players need to approve of this vote to give up? How many yes vote will be needed? What if the group is terrible and there's not enough votes?

    People were willing to drop a group too quickly before, I am glad for this addition because people have left groups that were capable of completing the content...and their reason for leaving? (wasn't fast enough, had one fluke and the party wiped, etc)

    Can we kick people for being bad? Or is that too mean and against the rule? I can't remember how many times I was in a DF group where everyone was perfect except for that one dps who kept on dying preventing the group from killing heart.

    Learn, explore, and think for yourself. Make your choices, take actions, and let yourself be free.

    There's always shouting for groups in revenant's. They didn't delete that option. DF is a gamble not a sure thing.
