I don't like being punished for wanting to run dungeons.

If you type out everything you want to say, then cut out everything but the first 10 characters or so, then submit it and edit it, you can then paste it all into one post.

As for the first example. I don't sympathise much. Not everybody wants to run through the dungeon as fast as possible. Some want to look around, some want to get the blue chests so they can get their aether gear up.

On the other hand, yeah, the second dude should have let you kick those guys. Five minutes is enough to log in if you get dc'd

While I understand "wanting to look around" these guys were literally just standing around chatting in front of the portal for a minute before we reminded them to get in the circle. That is what was met with the defiant "We just aren't going to let anyone advance floors" bullshit. I don't think it is unreasonable to want to continue advancing when they were doing nothing otherwise. It is unreasonable to simply sit around doing nothing and holding up your group mates just so you can find an excuse to get huffy and ruin the run for everyone.

Well, you didn't say they were doing nothing. lol. In that case yeah. It would be annoying.

Stuff was said.

Boo hoo, it happens? Boot them. You and that other person had the ability to boot two separate people. One for you, one for them, unless one of you booted recently.

If you couldn't boot that second person, abandon duty, blacklist them both. Report them with exactly what happened, what time of the day it was, ect. Re-queue.

Palace doesn't take that long to pop at any time of the day unless it's nearing maintenance.
