Better measures put into place to protect players against time wasters

So imagine this scenario. You're a DPS who's been waiting way over half an hour to get into a dungeon and then finally, ding!

It's show time.

You're in, you wolf down that food you bought on the marketplace and you're ready for what ever comes your way. But then without any warning, the tank abandons the party without so much as taking a step no more than 10 seconds after the dungeon begins, closely followed up by the healer.

Then as soon as they're gone, there's no way to get their names any more unless they say something first which they don't and what's their punishment if anything?

30 minuites time out . . . then cause he's a tank he'll get an almost instant qeue.

I waited more than that just to get in, not to mention the time I'm gonna have to wait to qeue again, and what's to stop the repeat offenders who do this repeatedly?

I dont see them leaving like that as an intended offense, but more of an inconsiderate action.
How are you suggesting the game protects you from normal inconsiderate jerkish human behavior?

to be fair there is a aspect of multiplayer in this game the communities are usually pretty kind and helpful. try maybe asking for some help or a que boost in big cities like limsa or kugane or rhalgrs. theres usually a healer or tank that play the role primarily cause they enjoy helping people otherwise they wouldnt sadistically chose those roles. ^_^ hope this helps.

You can actually get their names afterwards, through the Contacts list, which shows the last 50 players that you've been in a party with.

No one's obligated to put 20 - 30 minutes of their time into doing something they don't really want to do, regardless of your queue, I'm afraid. Harsher punishments to push tanks into it would be unfair and only make their numbers dwindle even more.

It can be irritating, but it's more common with some instances than others. If it's becoming a real problem for you then try asking friends or your FC.
