    Having an option to join a specific group might be too abusable, but I'd love to have the option to say "join only parties in progress" to the DF at least.

    Recent personal example: I was running a level 50 roulette the other day (partly to get an alexandrite map since I was working on the kettle quest) on DRG, since it could use the EXP. Ticked in-progress so that maybe it would queue faster. I got into an in progress dungeon where both the tank and a dps had bailed. We sat there for several minutes waiting for a tank to show up, calling out to linkshells, nothing. Eventually I decide that since it would probably easier to find another dps than a tank, and announce to the others that I'm going to leave and try requeuing as a tank. So I requeue for the roulette with in progress checked. I figure, I still need the actual roulette, and I'm either going to get paired with the same group or with another group that also needs a tank to fill in, right? Nope! Queue pops for a new instance. It's possible that another tank showed up to the first one while I was outside, but I doubt it.

    Bump!

    Still an issue. A friend asked for help, I Qued in-progress... and got in a new run. I am seriously getting tempted to just leave the new groups and leave them without a tank, because there is no point to stay in there when doing the instance itself is not my objective at all.

    When the only reason I enter the Q is to help the friends there is no point for me to stay there. Seriously starting to feel like that the game is exploiting my morals and wants me to act like a jerk.

    It would be lovely if at least the groups in-progress got priority - or in the best case scenario if you could join your friends directly. Potential abuse can be reported.

    The main reason why the Party Finder is not working for the harder content and so many groups disband after few wipes is caused by the players who ignore the comments.

    Getting to the phase XYZ once does not mean you are ready to join parties to do XYZ.

    Parties should spend most of the time doing the phase that is written in the comment not trying to get there.
