Not lucky really. People actually getting kicked from CM/Prae is quite rare.
Usually people just ignore any hapless newbies and run ahead to finish the dungeon without them.

Castrum Meridanium/Praetorium are on their own roulette (Main Story Roulette) which only includes those two dungeons. You will never get them unless you do that roulette - or queue manually for one or the other of them.

Later on (when you are part of the rushing, speed-running crowd) that roulette is actually quite nice for some decent Exp and Poetics.

It is only the first run which is awful for most people, when it ought to be awesome.
