Remove Deserter Buff When Kicked Out

Community General Discussion
1

I’ve been kicked out of a few dungeons on my alts for literally doing too much DPS. Every time I do above average DPS, or if I’m 1 shotting mobs for whatever reason someone seems to get too angry and have me removed from the group. I’d say for every 5-6 dungeons I do, I end up getting kicked, and especially right when we’re at the last boss for whatever reason. What gives with this kind of behavior? I can try to report it, but nothing comes of it.

(I’m 1 shotting all the mobs on my alt).

Joined a dungeon with group of friends IRL. We all got kicked out of the dungeon at the same time and got the 30 min debuff.
Is this because of lag, or is this a bug?

Being kicked for low dps I heard of, but being kick for having too high dps? There’s more to it than that. You went and ran a head starting pulling mobs on your own.

Remove the timeout entirely.
if someone doesnt want to be in our group, i WANT them to leave instead of ruining it for the rest of us.

If we kick them, theyre gone, I dont need some ego trip of knowing theyre sitting out 30 minutes. If they troll the next group, they’ll get kicked again…its up to them if they want to waste a day being a moron or not…doesnt bother me in the least…and if theyre kicked they can just hop onto an alt and troll some more.

No one is bothered by that joke timeout except for the players who were legitimately trying to play the game and got kicked by jerks for no good reason.

I’ve had literally the opposite experience when I do a lot of dps leveling alts… But also, I’m respectful of the tanks being allowed to pull since that’s their role and it doesn’t get anyone killed because of accidental agro.

My gawed, another one? There is either a rampant wave of awful kicks…or people leaving out a few other issues that might be the cause of it.

just remove it? I don’t think so, jak.

You should need to buy something that an inscriptionist(? Inscriptioner?) … can only make

nice try, little peep. But I’m not falling for your tricks.

everyone knows that’s a slur for people who love scrabble.

Has it ever occured to you the reason this issue comes up often is because it is incredibly easy to abuse the vote kick system? Getting kicked for no reason, not surprisingly, makes people angry and come to the forums to voice their frustrations with a broken system.

Absolutely not, anyone who scrabbles knows they are called Scrabblers.

I’d share images of me scrabbling as proof but I cant because…I forgot how after too much scrabbling. :sunglasses:

LFR is where the deserter penalty needs to go. I have joined after the first boss dies and, then, reque to kill the one I missed; however, if you leave, you get hit with 30 min waiting. You’re now forced to keep going for no extra benefits than to waste time or leave having to waste your time waiting.

I prefer my eggs over medium, with some salt, pepper and cholula. Also, bacon.
