We need influx of new players. Autoband addon is not a friendly addon for new players.

autoband making warbands 2/2/2 i have no issue with. if you continually have trouble getting in, its probably because you are playing of of the dozens of unneeded DPS classes in this game. Roll a tank or healer and be useful.

Kicking lowbies is not ok and is a d**k move.

It's just tool to help making 2-2-2
blame bad users, not the tool.
best use at making last room for tank/heal when they pop in /5.
worst use at kicking anyone while having many empty spots.
worst of worst is running and hiding from fight with such wb kicking ppl.

If you really care new low lvls, make open pug yourself.

When you take over a pug warband with 18 dps, how do you want to save it besides controlling who gets in?
A warband has to be more than just making you feel less alone in zone.

Its as if you didnt read my 1st post. Stop adding information.

Your post had no information besides you disagreeing with warband leaders making their own rules.

So you did read it but it had no info...
No, wb leads are not making up rules, they are taking over and closing wbs during na late night.

If the current WB setup sux, how else do you fix it?
When you lack e.g tanks or heals, do you keep it open, so more random DPS join?
When you have like 12 players in warband and plenty room and no heals or tanks available, sure invite more as it doesn't matter anyway.

Its NA late night. stop turning pugs into some half-baked premade by kicking and limiting who can join. Let the low ranks in so they can grind. Let them learn if they are new. This silly mindset of must have disc or kick or running autoband this late at night is a joke. stop the nonsense.

1000% facts !
I'm one that has been kicked for the same reason you mentioned, and then you have the same person leading the WB, looking to complete the WB for like an hour, i just laugh so hard i cough up blood !

You and i both know NA pop rarly yields enough tanks and healers. The worst thing to do is limit, who can join. I am not talking about fixing the issue, you cant fix low pop and bad comp. What you can do is keep the pug open.

I tried replying to you with my post above but i could not submit my reply.

I wouldnt mind the addon being removed and or limited. I do not use it, i can take them time to set a party at 2/2/2. Another guy said it best in this thread, great tool but in the wrong hands, it does more negative than good.

[Akilinus]

instead of crying about how other people choose to run their warbands.
Make your own.

or if you want in, log a needed toon ?
like i often say: The game design the problem, it is centered around 2/2/2 while class distribution is 3/6/3 .... Devs could make Crests and other currency Account wide to soften that inherent problem but they refuse (and therefore punish the people who log to toons that are needed instead of benefitting them) ...

But dont blame people who run Warbands a specific way ...
