Guild Wars 2

If this is not a bug I am not sure what it is. I was in a party everything was going smoothly until one player decided to go afk for at least 15mins. Of course all of us are pretty heat and want to kick him, but the player created the fractal threaten all of us if we kick him, he will leave which will cause all of us to have no choice to wait(we are at the 3rd Fractal.

Here is the question,
how is it fair when a party member can threaten all of us?
how is it fair when one of party member doesn’t even have enough agony resist and doesn’t even contribute when he kept dying make a party and expect the rest of us to carry him?

Like my example, the mesmer YW Ella from Sea of Sorrow (server), threaten us to leave the party when three of us was forced to wait? This is obviously a LFG system abuse, and this is not the first time I have encounter problem like this.

I am sure there are more stories such as this happened, please solve this game bug.

Thank you

Report them or live with it. OR just talk to the ppl to make sure, they have proper AR and enough time, before joining fractals with them. OR open the dungeon yourself…
If there wasn’t the “protection” for the opener, ppl could just look for an opener, wait till he/ she has entered the dungeon and then kick him to invite someone else.

Opener leave its problem, but not in u story. And u think its fair kick some1 after smoothly run for 10-15 min afk? We all(and u too, i hope) have real lifes. Some ppl have family, little childrens, porblems with health etc. And 15 min afk not so big deal.
Do u always leave group after 30-50 mins of instance run, if u need something to do? Somebody knoking u door, u grandma need glass of water and medicine? or go Afk?
And i got much more problems with hot ppl who kick me for 3 min dc at the end of arah, after 50 min run, and sell my spot. This is fair ofc?
If u want be “master of kick” open ur fractals/dungeons yourself and take 1 friend with u.
If u join pugs group and saw they bad, u can leave and join another or prepare yourself for pain. If u dont understand whitch group good and whitch bad its not system problem.
Anyway, how u want to fix it? Allow ppl to kick opener? Ok, some group has 2 ragequits at middle of dungeon/fractals, i with friend join them, kick them all, take 3 more friends, and half work done Very good solution, suit for ppl who cant wait a bit
My English bad, i know it, but i think u get my point.

Usually I really don’t mind people afk for 10~ 15mins if they give us a fair warning or headup. That particular player left without warning just stand there while we clear dredge. At this point, we were at 3rd fractal spend almost an hour.

2nd point is, when I said at least which mean all of us had been waiting for 15mins which does not include clearing time, so it mean he has been off the keyboard more than 15mins. Beside he die twice when we getting the door done, maybe he rage quit or just simply want us to clear it for me while he could enjoy the final loot.

Which bring us to 3rd, if you have a life and need to go for 20mins, have a courtesy to leave the party and deal with it. Not use your friend to threaten the rest of us.

offline players are getting auto-kicked after 5-10minutes even if they were the hosts, so the party an get a 5th person instead. So Do Not Kick manually…
being afk but online… is leeching. =(
