    Getting kicked out of the Duty Finder queue after multiple withdrawals

    Hi!

    I get kicked out of the duty finder queue after another player in the queue (not me and not in my party) withdraws multiple times. It seems to happen to other people too recently.



    Time: No specific time, just sometimes when I queue for duty
    Frequency: Sometimes, happened about 2 weeks ago for the first time while solo queueing for low level or main scenario roulette as Bard and last time was yesterday while queueing in a party of Black Mage and White Mage for Crystal Tower
    World name: Moogle
    Character name: Multiple characters, character doesn’t seem to matter
    Class/Level: Class doesn’t seem to matter, but: Bard (50), White Mage (50), Scholar (50), Black Mage (50), Monk (50)
    Party or solo: BOTH
    In-game time: Doesn’t seem to matter, but if I remember correctly it’s always been at daytime
    Area and coordinates: Doesn’t seem to matter either, but happened when I / we where in Gridania at the aetheryte near the Lancer’s Guild / Boat, Camp Tranquil in South Shroud and Lavender Beds area 5, plot 17 garden

    Steps:
    1. Queue for any duty via the duty finder, in a party or solo
    2. Wait until enough players are found for the duty
    3. Some person (not one of us) withdraws after the duty accept window pops up
    4. Duty pops up again, some person withdraws again
    5. And again a few more times
    6. After multiple withdrawals a message pops up that says that there is an error with the duty finder server and we should try again later and we are completely kicked out of the queue

    This just happened to me again.
    We were waiting for Brayflox's Longstop Hard as two DPS (Black Mage and Bard) for more than 20 minutes, when the duty was ready someone seemed to withdraw multiple times in a row and we got the error message again.
    It is extremely annoying. >_<

    Throwing in as well, Same issue.

    Had to just abandon a CT attempt because after two 30 minute waits, my friend and I just didn't have the heart to try again.

    Ah, so that's why this error pops up? A friend and I queued for Brayflox's Longstop (Normal) about a week ago and we got the same error message. We had about 5-6 participant withdrawals, if I recall correctly.

    I got the error message again today while queueing as BLM for Low Level Duty Roulette.
    But this time only after ONE withdrawal.

    Please, please fix this as it is really extremely annoying to wait for a dungeon 20 + minutes only to get this error message and to have to wait again only to probably get the error again.

    I don't always get this error, but if I'd guess I'd say 5 - 10 % of the times I want to do a dungeon.
