    add a stat to character windows, dungeons joined/dungeons completed
    pangya/albatross18 an old golf game i used to play had a similar thing where people making a party had an option saying people with over 10%, 20% or 30% quitrates wouldn't be able to join, so if people messed up on a hole 15 minutes before the end they'd carry on to keep their quit% down

    The reason why people quit DF roulettes is because they can. It is NOT tied to how fast you load in the dungeon. It is entirely tied to having the "Join In Progress" checkbox checked. If the box isn't checked, you'll get the penalty no matter how fast you can quit the duty.

    I reported it as a bug, but apparently the forum community reps thought it was a "feature request" and moved it to the "Website Feedback & Suggestions" thread.

    Here's the post where I describe the bug:

    At some level, SE is aware of the problem.

    My retaliation against Brayflox HM Duty Finder Speedrunners is to queue in as a Tank and explicitly not speedrun it. I'll usually speed things up if the rest of the party asks nicely, but any hostility toward me going at a "regular" speed makes me want to full clear the dungeon and get every chest. And, of course, any DPS who pulls something on purpose obviously wants to be the Tank instead so I wouldn't want to take that away from them.

    Not every party mentions it or even complains, but I have noticed that I almost never get commendations for tanking Brayflox

    That would his make each player run each dungeon once, then stick to the optimal one after that.

    i rarely see this problem. I get city all the time for duty roulette and we run smoothly and quickly without complaining.

    I often tank in roulette these days because of the quick queues, but I have never ever left if an "undesirable" dungeon pops. In actual fact I always groan to myself whenever Brayflox HM pops up because I always feel under pressure to speed run the dungeon, but that's for another thread.

    I've only ever left a full (well, "light") party on my own volition twice. Once was when a family emergency cropped up, and once when I found out I was in a party of jokers, who had no intention of running the dungeon and were just chatting with each other at the start of said dungeon.

    If you do roulette, and it's not the one you want, if you leave then you should be penalized. That's not how the game of roulette works.

    If you leave: you forfeit the daily bonus, and are penalized soldiery. So, if you go a dungeon on roulette but leave because you want Brayflox, then your soldiery cap for that week is now 450-45 or 405. All myth tomes should drop at the final boss too, but that's another thread.

    that's a dumb suggestion.

    Why is there this loathing of Speed Running?!?!

    If no one is comfortable speed running Brayflox..... then dont speed run it!

    As a tank, I'll do either way, I dont care..... when they want it speed ran im like "SWEEET", If they dont, no aoe alignment or an undergeared healer, I will do smaller pulls.... I really do not understand this "STOP SPEED RUNNING" mentality

    as i said before most people who hate speed running are melee dps (monks prolly) and/or under geared/incompetent healers! I don't use duty roulette for the sumple reason it pits you with terribad people the majority of the time almost like a trap. the bonus isnt' worth the effort in my opinion.
