The idea with min dmg etc. is problematic, bc this game groups 4k IL players with 18k IL players. a 4k player cant do sufficient dmg, if the 18k player kills everything with one strike.
TBH, I do solo ques or run with friends, mostly. RQ is an option, when I am really bored and I dont mind getting a penalty. The problem here is, that some players still need ADs, to advance their characters. They cant just leave a group of AFK players or min IL "carry me" slackers. I did play before RQ, levers penalty etc. There was an abuse of the kick option, but compared to the system 'as it is', it was much better. When the party leader was able to kick player whenever he wanted, I saw abuse. Maybe 5 or 6 times. I have seen dozens of AFK players and players using abusive language getting kicked, rightly so.
This system implements, that the average player is self centered and cant form a reasonable decision, so we are forced to group with random players for RAD, cant kick them and get a penalty, if we dont fulfill the goal, to wait for or carry whoever gets grouped with us. All this 'social contract' advocates dont get, that the door swings both ways. There is no reason for me, to be polite towards unpolite players or waste my time for them.
You can either life with the decisions of PW, as wrong as they are IMO, or stop playing or stop running RQ events etc. As it is, I dont think, that they will overhaul this crappy system anytime soon.
