Vote abandon to easy to do in CT.

[shanesnohero]

Doing crystal tower, we get to Acheron and wipe twice due to trolls, though it was going on the whole dungeon and got vote abandoned. Need to do something so I don't have to worry about not getting my myth tomes due to trolls at the last boss. It's super annoying.

PLEASE HELP SE

For a long time I liked to assume the stereotype of non-Japanese players was not true but I have never had trolls or major jerks that just leave or anything like that with all Japanese alliances. I didn't even know there was such a thing as abandon votes. I am sorry for you having to put up with that.

Same thing on jp servers too. the other day i waited 90 mins to get in CT as soon as i got in vote abandon. I voted no but it got passed. Yes there japanese troll alliances they wipe your party too. I stop doing CT now no more. I didn't thing there be so many nasty players.

I believe you can't vote abandon for the first 5 minutes. I heard it might become 15 minutes with later patch. So, I don't know how you got vote abandon as soon as you got in. Maybe you got in as a replacement to a group that was already giving up?

EDIT: Here's the link to the post saying it's 5 minutes now and is planned to be changed to 15 minutes. It's in Japanese though. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post1827858

LOL. It has nothing to do with nationality. Some of the biggest trolls I've seen have been Japanese. It's all about anonymity; when you can do stupid stuff and there is no repercussion, there will always be some group, no matter how small, that takes advantage of it.

I think Vote Abandon should be unanimous. Everyone wants to give up, or you don't. Have 1 or 2 people that think it can still be done? Tough. You signed up for it, finish it or leave yourself and take the penalty. All you can do about the trolls is kick them (if they are in your group) or report them if they aren't.

Cool neat work-around I thought of in 0.02 seconds: Vote kick a random person, which will pass since in this situation a majority will want to leave, then leave instance.

It took me no time at all to think of this because it happened before vote abandon, and was probably why we have this feature.

Bottom line is if people don't want to play they're not going to, and you can't stop them.
