Please make 24-man content rewards merit-based.

Meaning that it follows the same system as hunts/FATEs: participation is required to receive rewards. Don't hit the minimum participation requirement, you get nothing, good day sir.

It's getting tiresome to see people in (outdated) 24-man content do nothing, release early to escape the fight, intentionally step outside or just generally AFK, secure in knowing that if they never roll for loot, they'll probably never get kicked for AFKing.

It's unsociable behaviour that shouldn't be as rewarding as it is currently.

Probably true but it's not a terrible idea and they took the time to share their thoughts, why be so rude to them?

I feel you've become infamous for this kind of post. You're incredibly prolific (almost 6K posts), one can't browse the forums for very long without seeing one of your replies, and a large percentage of them are rudely shutting people down like this.

On topic, I see that this lack of participation is a problem. The best solution that I can think of is reducing the loot timer so that it can't hang there too long and prevent vote-kicks. People will just need to place their rolls faster or risk missing the opportunity to roll.

Nah Miles is pretty aight. I'm definitely more of a heel than he is.

There would be no way to judge whether it was intentional or not. While it's frustrating, if you realize it, point it out, vote kick and move on.

Doesn't matter. If someone is locked out of the boss room when it dies, they shouldn't get to roll on loot. Period. If you DC during a boss fight, whether it was your fault or not, you already don't get to roll on anything. The same should go for those not in the room before the barrier goes up.

Ya beat me to it, and... Indeed.

Guaranteed you'll see this: "Healer was friends with the other <some job here> so they didn't heal me and then wouldn't rez me so their friend could get the <job armor piece here> if it dropped!"

If they never roll on the loot, they can't be kicked. You can't kick a player while theres loot that hasnt been rolled on. You also can't kick someone while in combat so..

1. Player A Afk's through first boss. People notice, but cant kick during combat. After the boss, player A doesnt roll on their loot. They're safe.
2. Group gets to the second boss. Player A still hasnt rolled, and cant be kicked. The group begins the second boss fight. Player A rolls on the loot during the boss fight, or the roll timer times out. He still cant be kicked, because the group is still in combat.
3. Second boss is downed, and the window for rolling on the second set of loot opens up. Player A can't be kicked during a loot roll.

And this continues all the way through the dungeon. Unless you can convince the entire party to not even open the chest, so you can kick them (which is unlikely cause there's at least one person per party that doesnt read the chat or care about any of this) or everyone wipes during the boss battle, Player A is completely safe.

It's very, very easy to AFK throughout the 24 man raids, with no risk at all of being vote kicked.

Solution is to kick. Too much apathy for bad behaviour in MMOs these days.

No thanks. My computer loads some rooms in those raids slow and people are too impatient to wait and pull the boss before I get loaded in, if it was based on participation I would miss out on rewards because of impatient people.
