    Duty finder lockout issues

    First of all, someone d/cing in my party should not lock me out
    Second of all, 3 times in 24 hours is way to unforgiving.
    If I enter 5 dfs successfully or something can you let it reset? I mean it is way too strict. I am tried of being locked out for no reason.

    If someone in your party DC's, and you kick them before leaving, you wont get a penalty. You only get the penalty if the party is full.
    If even ONE player leaves, dc's, or is vote kicked, you wont get a penalty for leaving. It's literally only if you purposely leave a full party, in the middle of the dungeon.

    I am not talking about leaving in DF, I meant for queueing, If someone d/cs when the queue pops I should not be suffering a lockout. Speaking of leaving full party and getting a lockout, being kicked out of pvp before it starts because it takes too long to start should not kick you out and give you lockout.

    1) Since its a withdraw for the whole group, it doesnt (and shouldnt) matter who withdraws - it sucks for the rest of the people who were in the queue with you. A lot of people used the withdraw to troll and honestly, if someone DC's three times in one day while being in a queue, they might consider taking a break and trying to fix their connection
    2) I disagree, its not way to strict, its pretty generous - you get three strikes and only a 30 minute penalty, while causing inconvenience for other people.

    If someone in your group has issues or constantly misses his queues for whatever reason and you dont want to get locked out, there are two simple solutions: queue as a full party or dont queue with that person at all anymore and dont take the risk of getting their strike. You are being locked out for a reason - you and your friends arent playing alone and the withdraw of your group affects other people in queue... so yeah, the issue lies with you and your friends here.

    I've only been impacted by it once, in the 2 years since its been implemented. Seems to work fine from my standpoint.
