    Default Devs please fix the disconnect "feature" that boots you out of a raid or quest

    The "feature" I am talking about is the one where you get kicked out of a quest or raid if you loose your connection. Fix this please. We shouldn't be punished because Cox, Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, etc. can't keep their networks straight.

    OMG YES! I don't know about others, but I always end up dead too, so it costs me money also.

    No whining, unless you're serving really good cheese. Otherwise, put a cork in it.

    I agree, this needs to be fixed. There should be a timer before you get booted.

    In fact this gets exploited at times too. I won't go into details since it's a no-no to talk about exploits, but someone knows what I mean.

    Agreed. Unfortunately it seems those that exploit cause those of us that don't to suffer.

    /QFT wasn't always like this until some people got caught using the old mechanic to cheat raids.

    Oh I know what you mean. Well, I know at least one place you mean.

    The funny part is, you can still cheat the place I'm thinking about, but with a different method. This change didn't fix it. There are other things they can do to rather simply fix it (by editing the specific raid), but they haven't done so.

    What's especially irritating is that many players do not yet understand that a DC player has been booted from the quest. So if someone goes linkdead in a raid and it's time to loot the chest, there will always be 2-3 people yelling and screaming to wait for him to reconnect first. Then everyone's time is wasted sitting there 10-20 minutes just to see him rejoin back in Wavecrest Tavern or whatever.
