    Party Finder fail x times = kick

    What does this actually mean btw? Recently i join party finder a lot to get faster access in extreme primals hoping to get them ponies, this phrase has been said a lot in party finder along with 100% or full exp stuffs, but the way i see it, people are failing x times, and yet they dont get kicked, even the pf maker fails a lot at times, and i'm seeing them parties got disbanded after that, i've never seen someone actually get kicked from failing.. Do people actually get kicked from failing and they continue on without the player or else?
    Just to feed my curiousity..

    They probably put that in their announce to write off any newbies not confident with the tactics etc.

    In short, even if the party finder maker sucks, he hopes to get carried. lol

    OR too many people failed and the pt leader does not even bother to find out who was sucked. DISBAND!!!! Simple, Quick and Effective.

    These PF ads always make me laugh. When I come home from a crappy day at work, and am feeling a bit down... gazing over the plethora of ridiculous PF ads always makes me feel just a little bit better.

    I failed so many times, never had a successful attempt and only got kicked once. I'm improving though.

    When I join parties like this, the leader is usually fair. They go, "Now look, I'm sorry so and so, but if you keep making us wipe I'm going to have to replace you." I don't put this in my PFs because it makes me feel like I'm some elitist and I don't like being "that guy", but I get very upset when I make a farm group in PF and some people play like its their first time doing the instance.

    It often means that the PF group leader has no clue on what (s)he's doing, is looking for a quick and easy carry, and is obviously not going to work if other people come in who also don't know what they're up against.

    My experience has been the same as the above posters: its usually the party leader being bad. I LOVE joining these groups as Tank and after the leader fails X times saying "Sorry guy the leader failed so its time to remove myself from his group" =P

    Somewhere around 99.9% of the people that join "experienced clears only" pf groups fail super hard. Like, obviously don't even know what to do in phase 1 fail.

    Well, it's true, if i were to judge myself, i cant really tell who is failing especially in later extreme primal fights, the aoe is somewhat involve more than 1 person, hailstorm/ thunderstorm for example, will be lethal if there are 2 stacks. So getting hit by aoes aint really a specific player's fault.. Or them solo tanking method without healer/smn gives virus and tank died abruptly with more than half hp intact.. Heck i never even see a blm gives me that magic def buff as a tank.. But it's just weird that people put these ads on pf and not really enforcing it, unless of course, it's like what hyunckel said, to scare off shy noob..

    My expectation was somewhat people are using parser, keeping vid to see in detail who's doing epic fails.. Guess that isnt the case..

    And yeah in my view be it farm/full exp/training is pretty much the same in pf, and pf makes the environment more ellitist compared to df..
