Bad Combination: Lag + Spoiled Players

Jeremy

This game was running fine before that last bout of maintenances. Now it lags consistently - abilities are unresponsive and death is often the result.

Combine this with the fact many players on this game have become accustomed to perfect runs - no deaths - and everything running smoothly - they often bail on the group the second something doesn't go their way. I've been seeing this happen a lot lately - and people are suffering a lot of undeserved time out penalties as a result.

So if you aren't going to fix the lag then at least do away with the time penalty for those of us who try to tough it out in your dungeons - instead of punishing us every time a group disbands because some spoiled tank didn't get his or her smooth and perfect run from start to finish (I pick on tanks here because they are the worst offenders according to my experience). Otherwise you are going to start seeing a large drop off in the amount of people using your dungeon finder.

Only the player who initially leaves the group should be penalized. It makes no sense to penalize everyone else in the group as well.
