And 1017 persists after patch

[Akaname]

Ahahaha, ;D I couldn't care less about 1017. I'm still getting the same thing too but what is more annoying is the fact that Square Enix failed to implement a kick function for the party leader. All of these disconnects and trolls are definitely a mark against Square Enix's "revision" of a bad MMORPG. Honestly, what were they thinking? We'd all play nice and everyone would have a stable, bug-free, client with a 24/7 uptime connection?

So the overachievers can troll and kick the newcomers and other people who want to watch the cutscenes in group encounters? No thanks, it will be swtor all over again.

And no, it won't be SWTOR all over again because this is FFXIV: ARR. Honestly, are you a dumbass or something? WoW and plenty of other MMORPG's have kick functions.

"Dumbass"? Sure, whatever you say. Just goes to show that being a real tough keyboard warrior on a forum is the easiest thing in the world. Hope we can meet someday so you get the opportunity so say it to my face though.

I used swtor as a comparison because like FFXIV:ARR, SWTOR also has rather lengthy cutscenes in group content which can be skipped by the players, whereas WoW has not.

Anyway, allowing the group leader to kick groupmembers is placing an awful lot of power in the hands of players which can easily be abused, despite checks and balances. And considering that SE won't even allow /tells in group content, I would not hold my breath waiting for a kick function.
