    Regardless of who you want to blame it doesn't even matter.

    Bottom line is that if you don't kick people who want to leave they will afk or fake dc and that is not a punishable offense unless they're being excessively rude in chat. There is no way to prove somebody didn't legitimately need to go afk or that they didn't actually disconnect and it will never be punishable for that reason. Even if they threatened to do it in chat they could simply call it a bluff and then say that they actually had to go afk or disconnected, try and prove without a doubt that they didn't.

    Nobody is forcing you to stop wasting your own/parties time so continue doing it if you want. I'm pretty sure the penalty was put into place to try and prevent people who join a DF group and then immediately leave when it's not the duty they wanted. Not to penalize people who gave it a good try before deciding they no longer wanted to waste their time.

    Really though, the sooner you get rid of the person who doesn't want to be there, the sooner you can continue practicing. I don't know what else to say to try and get it through that you're only hurting yourself by trying to punish people regardless of the reasoning.

    Makes no sense to me that people are too impatient to wait 5 minutes or less for a rep to join in progress but they're perfectly ok with waiting an additional 5+ minutes trying to punish somebody for wanting to leave.
