    Increase penalty for players leaving the moment duty commences

    This is starting to get pretty annoying from players who leave the moment the duty start or before it starts either due to the player not at the ilvl they expected it to be or don't expect it to be a speedrun. I know that ppl don't like it, but it should be a increase in the penalty for players who does that especially when it's already difficult to do dungeons at lower levels. Instead of 30 min there should be increase each time they continue to do so. 30 to 40 to 50 and so forth and the effect last the week. Not to make it permanent, but more of a testing ground to give players a second thought into joining duties. To leave the moment they enter dungeons that they don't like or that the players that they are with.

    I disagree with your idea and suggest this idea as the superior idea. Thank you for helping.

    This doesn't make any sense. What if you leave right after the duty starts because the tank is so awful they can't tank anything? What if the reason you left is because you're in a level 47 dungeon and the guy doesn't even have Shield Oath? Or doesn't even have PLD unlocked? There are plenty, PLENTY of things people do in dungeons that I don't appreciate, but I don't think a system to penalize them for being awful would make any sense. People have the right to leave. 30 minutes is already a pretty severe penalty for anyone who is trying to actively play the game. You're just going to have to deal with it.

    Nah it's not harsh enough, SE have all the reason in the world to inflict severe punishments on paying customers for minor infractions. They should drag the offending player to the Aetheryte in limsa to be drawn and quartered in front of a bloodthirsty crowd to satisfy your frustrations over a video game.

    Make the penalty timer be as long as the DPS queue wait was.

    It's impossible to understand every situation.

    Harassment, Incompetence, Belligerence, Stupidity, Arguments, Lag, Other Events, Real Life.

    The amount of possibilities and reasons for someone leaving a duty early are too vast and complex to define it down and say "Let's punish people further". You can't compensate or adjust to fit every possibility, the current system works fine.

    It doesn't matter how long you queued, stuff happens.


    If anything increasing the penalties would just make things worse.

    I have met enough trolls to know it will only take two players in a party to ruin everyone's experience.

    You can't progress.
    You can't vote dismiss.
    You can't abandon.
    If you leave, now you're grounded, for the day.

    As though there wasn't enough premade trolls in crystal towers.
