Thread: Dungeon Queue Penalty

Please remove the 30 minute time penalty for queuing for missing queue's or having to abandon a duty. I can only speak for myself but having IRL things that come up takes priority so missing queue's. I feel like getting penalized for such things is not right, at least not for an entire half an hour. Im sure I'm not the only one who has proposed this. Now lets hear all the troll comments? "Well then don't have a life then?!" Welp, sorry but some of us have families and jobs and such and aren't all single living in their mothers basement cramming hot pockets in their mouths and guzzling 2 liters of Mountain Dew by the minute at the age of 25. Sorry try harder trolls! GOTEEM 2EZ! BEATYATOIT!

If you miss out or leave 3x in row then you should not que, its that easy. For leaving the penalty should be AT LEAST the remaining time for the duty and not just 30 min. Ppl rather leave then even try... For missing the initial que into the dungeon, yes, id say we need an seperate counter for that and leaving at least.

If you're having to miss a queue because of a RL incident, I'd hope you'd be more focused on dealing with that for the next 30 mins or so rather than fussing because you're locked out of the duty finder in a game for a little while

This post says it all.

The penalty for missing one que is going back to the end of the line - seems fair. A bigger penalty for someone who repeatedly ques for things and doesnt respond when they pop(which remember, gives you a whole 45 seconds to do)? Still seems fair. A penalty for leaving a run in progress? Also fair. In each of these instances, youre not just affecting yourself. Youre also making things harder on the other people in your group/que, and making the system work harder to accommodate you. We all have things come up in life. The system will actually let you afk in an instance as long as 10 minutes before it kicks you. If you communicate with the group, they might be happy to let you sit afk for a bit while you sort things out. If youre going to be afk more then 10 minutes, then you really arent getting a 30 minute penalty. Youre getting a "however many minutes are left when i get back" penalty. There are hundreds of things you can do in game for 1-20 minutes while you wait out such a penalty.

Solution is a “penalty removal token” that can be bought from the MOG store, perhaps $2.99 a shot.
