Why is this still a thing? Unable to zone in while an encounter is in progress

I understand why this would be in place within the context of a user-prepared raid encounter. However, why have steps not been taken to ensure that a user doesn’t sit in an LFR queue for 40 minutes, only to be unable to zone in and join the encounter. Especially when some wings only have a single boss.

  1. Join Queue for LFR
  2. Wait 40+ Minutes
  3. Accept Queue Pop
  4. ???
  5. Get kicked for “not participating” in the encounter OR the only boss in the wing is now dead
  6. Repeat step 1?!?!

There has to be a better solution to this. Just don’t scale difficulty in LFR based on # of players and ALWAYS allow them to zone in if is the result of accepting a Queue notification.
