This vote abandon system absolutely has to go. This is the WORST system Blizzard has ever implemented.
We failed the 1st pull of an Ara’Kara due to a massive overpull and a comp with 3 casters so no kicks. The leader went AFK and refused to vote abandon. Even though we got 4/5 votes, because the leader didn’t vote the key had to just sit there for 30 minutes. Absolutely unacceptable, this system has to change.
tried to post an image of proof, but blizzard apparently doesn’t like outside links. It was just a picture of the vote abandon at 4/5 but still not abandoning. It timed out and said unsuccessful

Just noticed the same exact thing
Maybe OP had a typo or copy-pasted the wrong link?
oh that’s weird. it says I can’t post links. It changed it to the post. it’s just an image of the vote at 4/5 but not completing because the leader didn’t vote.
Idk what any of that means, but it sounds like a horrible 30 minutes.
Is there a way to actually see which player(s) have voted or not?
I didn’t think there was, to my knowledge.
Strange, I was doing my Ara-kara and we wiped the second boss because the dps were taking debuffs, they started a vote and even without me voting the vote was confirmed and we were teleported out

Even if you don’t have those posting abilities, you can still post the link with some creativity
For example instead of “www . Google . com” you can put “www dot Google dot com” and people will understand
They should make it that when 3/5 player voted agree n it will be accepted regardless if the other players choose to vote or not.

Yeah they restrict links to some degree at least. I’d have loved to see it, but either way if it is true it’s yet another problem on a very, very large list of problems.
any system that can do good must first be evaluated for it’s ability to be abused. Anyone who thought about it for longer than 30 seconds would have come to the conclusion that groups would be held hostage (because that is what the system is designed to do) and so players would just go afk to avoid penalties.

This is exactly how the dungeon deserter penalty came about in the dungeon finder.
How the turn tables.

That sounds like a heroic if you were actually ported out like that. He’s talking about keys
If the vote to disband passes it warps everyone out.
Big agree.
Just did (didnt?) do a 12 because tank decided with 4.5 minutes left and only the last boss remaining that it was gg. it was still very doable. at worse a near miss.
He just afk’d and started smack talking.
/abandon just isnt good enough.
we need a hostage reporting system, this guy 100% deserves to get flagged.

This is the new system. If the vote to abandon passes, everyone is teleported out of the dungeon.

How did you eventually leave?
You could have left, at any time. Unless you are a habitual leaver, you will not get the mark. And even then, its just a little red flag on your icon in LFG. Its not even a real mark.
