A good guideline of etiquette to add is that if someone has to go afk, they go ahead and type /resign. That way if the team has to resign, then can do so and not have to wait for the person to come back.

Also it would be nice if the party list shows who resigned and who hasn't. I know you can look in the chat window but it can be a hassle with other text in the way. Especially if it's an elite mission party of 12 people. Comparing the names in the chat box and the names on the party list can be confusing because the order is always different. Same with counting the 1's people type indicating they're ready to start a mission. Would be nice if there's some on/off switch on the party list simply for a visual for this purpose.

Also let's say there's a cutscene in the middle of the mission. I wish it could be programmed so that anyone who skips will be taken back to his/her character right away and not have to wait on the others. There's always someone who doesn't skip the scene. Often it's the party leader who just wants to see his/her character star in the cutscene and maybe get some screen shots. The cutscene that starts each alliance battle works like this. When you skip, you can move your character right away while waiting on the timer.

And for cutscenes that conclude missions, well let's say you skip but someone hasn't. There should be an Exit button so you can choose to exit the party and appear alone at the next outpost. If others want to do the same, they can do so and rejoin you. And whoever is watching the damn thing can just go ahead and do so.

One of the reasons why I stopped ferrying people to the Consulate Docks for free is because I keep getting someone who won't skip the cutscene. It may be someone planted by those who charge money in order to keep me stalled away while they look for others to pay them. Whatever the case, I don't care, I won't sit through that one ever again.

And for mission runners who request people to skip the scene, I respect their choice to exit the whole thing if someone doesn't skip(unless he/she was paid ahead of time).

Party all looks at map.
Joe Black: Map to Vent 3.
Tidy Mouse: Map to Vent?
Big Fist: Aurora.
Runninnn Fuul: Where's Hammer Wench?
Tanks Alot: Back - um - what are we doin?
Hammer Wench << Hey Joe, I'm in Quarrel Falls. Where is everyone?>>

Yeah, I like the idea of a return function much better than a resign function.
