This has been suggested before, and as has already been pointed out, is obviously far, far too open to abuse.

Quit lazy-moding shit, and do the mission/dungeon/whatever yourself.

Such is the risk you take running people. QQing here won't change anything.

Did you ever even play the bore-fest that are dungeons?

On-topic:
It sucks.

Yes, because that's exactly what I said in my post.

Honestly, just changing the timer to help out leeching/scammers etc wouldn't be too hard, would it?

why doesn't the runner just make everybody resign upon entering the last level of the dungeon?

You just have to make everybody know that you will be requiring them to resign upon entering the last level. If someone refuses you just don't even start the level.

After everybody resigns (except the runner of course) you run the level normally, make everybody pay before the boss and if someone fakes an afk to avoid paying then you just have to resign yourself after the people who paid have picked their loot and it's game over for the leecher.

Excellent suggestion, the only problem is it opens the runner up to being a prick and rushing in to get the chest and mapping out immediatly. I have seen prick runners who would totally do that.

anet will not ever add an ablility to remove someone WHILE in a group. it would promote more bad than good. for obvious reasons.

kk, everyones at the chest (on vent, KK PUT UR LAST VOTE ON GUY... {chest opens} NOW! HAHAHA WE GET HIS DROPS GG). You could kick someone whenever they got a good drop. the only fair way to do it would be to automatically resserect the person and give them 120 seconds to get all their drops, which is completely retarded.

Yes, I have... and personally, I don't find them boring at all. But that's just me.

This is basically the thing you have to accept.... if run you may get someone who won't pay.... something everyone would have to live with... if happens tough.. live with it and move on... Anet should not do something to cover this just incase.....

Also AFKers... something may come up like an emergency keeping them from the keyboard, have to accept that can happen and so not fair to brand everyone with the scammer tag....
