    It really feels like this system changed somewhere recently. I remember in the past it would pop and someone would withdraw and the queue would stay nearly full and within seconds it would usually pop again. The withdraws would be annoying, yes, but not cause too much extra wait time. Now when there's a withdraw the whole queue resets with all the spaces empty and I have to start the wait all over again, it's like I'm shuffled back to the tail end of the queue instead of staying at the head where I was.

    Yes, the DF algorithm was modified for 3.0 I think. So, now works in a different way than ARR. But seems, that we are aware off, the queues resets everytime someone withdraws, making the queues longer than before, at least for this content. Like I said in the post, the duty pops mutiple times, 5-10 minutes after register, then 10 minutes between pops (which is a reasonable time), but people withdrawing make the rest of the players start from beginning again.

    ^ This. It's especially frustrating when the queue pops within ~3 mins, someone withdraws/doesn't click, then you're back to the end of the queue and end up sitting for 30+ mins...
    I've even had it where it was a full pt, reserving instance, then suddenly everyone was gone in the queue except me and two dps, didn't even pop up to withdraw. Stuff like that makes me wonder if the system replaced me and those two dps and just let the rest of the pt go in.


    Also, for those people who spam withdraw because they're not getting in progress. Stop that. You're causing other people to have longer queues / get thrown to the back of the line.
