Nobody wants to group with players that harbor that kind of attitude. You are probably ruining it for the other three players in your group.
The issue is mostly your mentality.
If you are signing up for a normal dungeon, you should assume that you will be playing with casuals and lowbies.
Realising that, you should adjust your build accordingly.
As a healer in a normal, you don't need to be chucking out combat prayers, orbs and spamming healing springs. That sort of thing is overkill.
Mutagen and the odd breath is more than enough to keep people topped up. Then stack some damage/defense skills so that you can actually do something worthwhile if your groupmates can only pull a combined dps of 5k.
People don't seem to get that swapping stuff around can make things easier than running whatever the youtube peeps say is the best. If you are running VCoS then slot purge. I don't care if you are a stam dps, you aren't using that magicka anyway, and your group will thank you for it.

I would also like the option to avoid getting into an half done dungeon. Similarly, I would like to see who I should play with both in dungeons and trials before accepting (if its a random, keep the dungeon hidden, no problem).
Similarly, it would be nice to have a block people option that is independent of the PSN. The option should prevent getting grouped with blocked people. At the moment, blocking people through PSN will get you rouped (but unable to speak), which is ridicolous.
Black listing cheaters would help a lot preventing them from doing dungeons again.
its broken to begin with- and the fact that you can get
A. fungal grotto with 3 cp690's
OR
B. White gold tower with a bunch of level 45 characters is really really rough.
the dungeon finder should give bonuses for helping a team thru a dungeon that have already started- and i agree- less penalties for quitting a group. we re all trying to grind thru this with 10 toons in a limited amount of time- people have rolled extras toons, just for the event, a lot of level 10's etc that aren't geared- why make it more painful for the average player than necessary? give dungeon finder some parameters at least. this event is meant to be a celebration of the dungeon, etc- and we re grateful for the free junk - sure- but its just highlighted how many issues have gone unfixed and unattended for so so long in this game.

And still get the reward for doing a random dungeon?
If someone runs, I let them run, wait for them to die and then leave. I dont like quickies. And honestly I dont mind if someone is doing the quest or taking is time to do things.

Oh, another, "I am better than you" post. This is the problem of MMOs. People like this. Just like I said in the other post, because of people like you, I don't bother doing multiplayer.
We can never practice/train and become better. This is part of the reason why ESO doesn't become a better game. Instead of blaming the developers and Zenimax for making the game, they make it "all about them" instead of helping out people and having fun.
You can go with me anything anytime! I have the most fun when people are clearing things they haven't before and learning new stuff!

You must have had some really bad experience. Learn to leave the group.
People who queue for random should be prioritized for filling in run in progress, if you queue for specific dungeon you are likely after pledge or quest so should primarily go to new groups.And ya know I wish they'd stop queuing me into dungeons that are already done, thereby locking me out of queue for 15 minutes. Like really? Come on.
