    Let me elaborate my reason. If it forces auto-grouping upon registering to a Behest, not only that the leecher will become a part of the party, hence taking away the EXP/SP that other "working" party members are putting their labour into, but there's also no guarantee that the system will land the "leader" role on a correct player. Then booting the leech from the party (in order to, like, allow PT members to gain slightly more SP from killing individual mobs than having a leech in PT) could be impossible. The party might have to disband and regroup anyway, just to kick out the leech. Now we're back at start, inviting people to join party.

    There are also so many types of Behest Douche, people that you (or I) don't want to be in the party. Therefore I still think manual invite is better. I've often run into undesirable players at Behest, and I'd rather be in a separated party. Ah...but then again we can simply just disband from the automated party and form another party if that happens.

    Well, I think I have nothing against auto-group in Behest anymore, if the system does not come with obligation that everyone MUST be in same party for Behest. As now we can have different parties participate in same Behest, each help kill the monsters separately, and get about equal SP reward at the end.

    You're right. They will exist regardless of auto-grouping system. And this is why I totally agree with Behest contribution evaluating system. Since leeching people might not be interested in trivial SP obtained from defeating enemies, they're mainly there for the free SP at the end of Behest.

    P.S. Sorry my replies are kind of confusing, I've been confronted with too many Behest Douches and was in angry mode. So the idea of auto-grouping blew my mind ><;;
