For Square-Enix Petition: Duty Finder - Ditching Team Penalty

[_Archangel_]

There should be a penalty for leaving the party, like cannot queue for a Duty Finder in the next 3 hours (anything less i feel is not painful enough to prevent them from not doing so).

Yes, I'm a DPS prolly that's why I complain. But this is a big problem nowadays.

Square-Enix, please hear me in behalf of others who queue 45 minutes in Duty Finder and end up being ditch by a member (usually a tank or a healer - probably due to their ability to quickly re-queue).

45 minute in queue waiting is painful enough.

What constitutes "ditching" is kind of a gray area, it would be difficult for a computer to analyze whether someone does or doesn't have a valid reason to leave the group. If they can figure out some algorithm to fairly judge a person for leaving a group, then by all means implement it, but 3 hours is far too long, I'd say 20 minutes is okay.

well no matter how long, they shouldn't be allowed to requeue as if nothing happened.

An example, in a group and it is so bad my gear breaks for shitty heals, i finally say enuff is a enuff and you want to penalize me 24 hours for a shitty group?

Something that would solve this or atleast help it is stop cross server DF, just make it your sever DF and anyone added to your black list will not get qued. This would solve a lot of the leaving issue right there.

Last night alone, I got 90k'd three separate times when the Duty Finder server kept crashing people (there was a thread about it). Two of them were in Titan Hard Mode and my party ended up disbanded when I was able to get back on.

Why should I have to deal with an hour+ wait for something that is not my fault in the least?

[Pathetic]

you could give them 24 hour penalty pple still ditch bad grp or one they think is bad. Or they just gonna go afk and leave you hanging lol.

I don't think there should be any penalty for leaving a party. Why give people the option to leave if they are gonna be penalized for it?

that's d thing, they're not suppose to be joining the queues if they know something will be up soon like ordering a pizza or something.. ok maybe not pizza, but something big like they have to go to school or work in the next 10 minutes.

i'm asking for a similar logic "League of Legends" is doing. first offense 15 mins, 2nd 45 mins... and incrementing.

Nah I disagree with this idea. There are many situations that can result in having to leave the party. I know a guy who got 90k when entering a dungeon when he was finally able to get back on he was outside the dungeon with a nice 15 minute timer. You're saying a guy that this happens to should eat a 2-3 hour penalty cause of a failed instance server?

Also most of the reasons people will leave is cause the party is fail. Why should someone be punished for not wanting to deal with a bad party? I have left on occasions and its usually cause of people not taking advice and continuing to play badly or parties with ppl straight trolling. Now what should someone take a penalty for leaving a group where DDs are trolling by aggroing adds intentionally?

the idea to increase the penalty is a bad one. If anything, I wish it would be removed altogether.
