Broken Group Dungeon Chaos

Okay so the dungeon groups have been broken for a while now - let me give you the play by play on why this is an issue any why this needs some attention sooner than later.
Last night a friend and I went into a Malabogs to do a quick run through for AD and because we are trying to get the artifact for a friend for Christmas.
As soon as we load in the cleric immediately quits out. He didn't even go to the first group of enemies. So the queue finds a GWF - but doesn't put him in the group. Okay fine. We get a little farther and a very very weak TR quits in embarrassment after getting lost and running into the adventurer group. It pulls in another GWF - also not added into the group. We cannot add either one into the group. They can't get into a group together. So we now have two individuals running alone and 3 people running in a group together. We get to the dragon.
One of the lone GWF's hits the button while the rest of us aren't in the circle waiting for the other lone GWF to get through the castle to us. It starts the timer because he's not in a group so 100% of his group is in the circle. It randomly pulls 3 people in there - this glitches the dragon into the wall where it cannot be harmed. We all wait to die. We respawn outside and the third guy in our group quits. He is now disconnected and the group we are in is broken. We can't kick him we can't leave group to get everyone out of our group. A third guy comes in, also alone in a group. Meanwhile the GWF hits the button again and sucks 3 random people in to fight the dragon. I'm not one of them (I'm the tank) They all die. He runs up and hits the button again, sucking 3 random people in - meanwhile I'm waiting for the new guy to get through the castle to the end. They die, he runs up and hits the button again. My friend and I have to beg him to stop hitting the button until everyone is in the circle. He does this twice more before he finally decides to wait until everyone is in the circle to hit the button.
My friend and I know that the only way we are going to finish this is if he and I both manage to get sucked in together because the others clearly don't know the fight well and are a bit under geared (normally not a problem but this was no ordinary Malabogs).
Finally we manage to get all 5 people in at once - the other three die quickly and my friend and I kill the dragon. at the end we realize that we wasted an hour of our lives on a dungeon that we normally run through without a death. And the problem wasn't the new players or their low gear - it was the lack of the functional group.
Fix the groups/queues please. It is VERY important to the dungeons.
