What is your view on Duty Finder leeching?

[JusticeReborn]

I want to hop in here for a moment. I experienced this same thing just last night, only it was one of the tanks (in Castrum Meridianum) instead. He started out doing the typical hollering at the new players that didn't yet know the strategy. They hollered back at him. As is my usual demeanor/routine, I tried to calm things down between both. I pointed out to him that, if he uses Duty Finder for CM runs, he's bound to end up with people that are in there for the first time. He could instead queue up with friends or a Free Company.

But eventually he just was so aggressive that everyone was against him. He dropped a "you guys all suck, **** y'all, I'm done." At this point, we were eager for his departure so we'd just get a replacement for him. Except he never left. Instead, he did /sit and watched us fight through the rest of the dungeon.

When we got to the final boss, he ran up to us and entered. I thought maybe he'd have put everything behind him and at least help kill the boss. Nope, he just sat in a corner and watched the other 7 of us take down the boss in both phases, then collected his free tomes before leaving. Before we won, I pointed out that, despite his rage at newbies not knowing what to do, the irony was that they were at least trying to help us all work towards the goal of a victory, whereas his self-induced exclusion hurt the run far worse.

Anyway, we won without him, but it was more annoying to me that he got the reward than that he ditched us.

His name is Yoshin Yotan of Diabolos. Here's a screenshot of him in the final boss fight:

Ironically, his Free Company is called "Server's Nicest Guys."

EDIT: Turns out he actually runs that FC o.O

Wow, sounds like a real dick move. sitting in a corner like that and watching a party defeat a mob.

I afk during the magitek boss with cannons because it's super boring, but I'm a healer and no one needs heals so it doesn't even matter.

I had a whm in the cutscene during the final boss. The entire fight. We won with just the sch healer but still...

I'm a DPS and have yet to experience this fantasy....

I'm ok with the vote kicking but only if it requires 3-0 (light party) and 7-0 (full party) votes to kick people.

I report them for griefing personally. They are purposely negatively affecting everyone else's game experience. It IS against the rules under the Inappropriate Behavior section of the "Prohibited Activities" list, and thus I treat it as such. They want to act like a spoiled child? Fine, I'll just make an effort to make sure they suffer the consequences and leave it at that.

Little warning, Justice Reborn received a suspension from the OF for posting a players name in this thread etc etc. Please do not post griefers names on THIS forum.

Roaman - If it takes you that long to type 'AFK' I dread to think what your red circle dodging is like

Which I think is stupid. Players deserve to know who the losers and leechers... just like in d2, it was widespread to call them out and "tarnish" their rep should they steal or rip someone off.
This should be done

I think that if you don't participate in the run, you shouldn't get rewarded. And we need a vote to kick feature.

In my experience, it was actually the other healer who went AFK at the start. He didn't show up until halfway through, and then spent the rest of the instance doing nothing but spamming Medica II and Regen. At the last boss, he deliberately got himself killed. I ressed him, he clicked the Raise icon off and released to the entrance so he wouldn't have to heal the rest. :-\
