Guild Wars 2

1. Why are we still bound to an instance owner? I was just stuck with one of the absolute worst players who just so happened to be the instance owner. He died in every boss fight, most champion fights, and all around a not so great player. I’m not against these players from joining and learning, what I am against is players like this who blame the rest of the team for their short comings. Since he is the instance owner I’m forced to play on a giimped team. I suggest we bring back the GW1 style of instances where it doesn’t matter who or how many people D/C (or in the case of gw2, kicked) you can still play the instance.

2. I have an issue with is kicking in fractals, there are two things wrong with it that I’ve noticed. The first thing is I was just in a fractal, made it to the third level and it was nearly completed and I was kicked by the instance owner (same as mentioned above) for trying to explain to him how it worked and he thought he knew better. The reason isn’t so much the issue, it’s the fact that it only took him to start the vote and his single guild mate to do it on the 3rd instance of the fractal. My suggestion is to make it a MAJORITY (three people) vote, not a two person vote which is a perplexing system. The second issue is I put enough effort into the run to complete it more than 50% and yet I was able to be removed.

I’m not simply boo-hoo’ing because I got kicked from a fractal, I’m pointing out two very obvious issues that need to be looked at. Please ANET, fix existing content. I want other players to see this and tell us your thoughts on this subject

You’re not the first, and you won’t be the last for a while. I agree with your points though, just that this issue isn’t exclusive to fractals alone – this is precisely why we also have so-called “white knight” kickers who do nothing but grief Arah sellers, legitimate or not.

Just two?

Oh look guys! It’s this thread again..

This thread should be re-titled as “Two Issues with Kicking players from an Instance”.

We have your answers here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/Dungeon-Forum-FAQ/first

And no, ANet will probably do nothing if the players can avoid getting grieved by themselves. Except for that grief button.

Not to rehash this same 10238 forum threads, but I had this same issue this week. WORST player I’ve seen in a long time, Leeroyed everything in dredge, pulled to the group but then ran away to survive. He proclaimed that since he was lv 50 he knew all.

That instance owner being booted kicking the whole team thing is an issue but not a really common one in my experience.

I recommend you get more respectful in your communications. People tend to get mad at you when you put down the team regardless of whether or not you are right. Bad people in pugs are a norm and nothing you can say will change it if that’s the case and the only thing it will do is get you kicked.
