How to deal with non contributing players

[Darrcyphfeid]

This is a very coddle toxic game where the community is perfectly fine with calling out people that demands competence from the rest of the party and are also very protective of players that are lazy and/or lacks basic understanding of their job and game mechanics and is in content where they shouldn't be. Due to this reason, the only options left to you are either try to vote kick the leeches, which is on a 4 hours long cooldown. Vote abandon, which isn't likely to go through. Or just leave by yourself, in which case you'd have to eat a 30 minutes penalty for.

Yup. Should've been the first post.

People go along with it because the only way they get anything done is by carrying people like that, or by becoming one themselves and having others still carry them. "Difference in play style" allows for so much covering it's kind of hilarious.

Alternative solution is to just never play with randoms and only with friends, which is sort of contradictory and also kind of out of sync with the concept of an MMO. But y'know.
