Removed from group when disconnected

by sownu » Thu Nov 05, 2015 3:48 pm

Hey, does anyone else have a problem where when you lose internet and disconnect you are removed automatically from party ? (raid?)

I have a shitty internet, it loses connection for like 1/2seconds every hour, and its incredibly annoying that even though i can reconnect to game in few seconds, i find myself outside instance and have to be reinvited to party.

It makes few second dc into 10 min hassle. Especially like today where i got dc, log back in 5 seconds, and find myself outside entrance, killed by horde and now have to corpse run and run through whole dungeon to rejoin party.

Im not getting kicked by my mates because as i said, its like few sec dc, and i dont even show up as disconnected in game.

And funny is also that SOMETIMES i dont lose group when dc'd. Happens only like 2/3 of time. Maybe its if i dc in combat ?

Is it a known bug ? Ca i do anything to fix it except change internet provider?

When you DC because of you, it removes you from the group and considers you go offline.

When you DC because of the server lagging, you stay in the group but are considered online after approximately 20 seconds to 2 minutes.

I couldn't find anything about this on the bug tracker, so perhaps it was intended behaviour in vanilla that a DC is considered immediately offline.

Should verify what happens when:
1) In a fight 5man/40man and alt+f4
2) In a fight 5man/40man and lose internet
3) NOT in a fight 5man/40man and alt+f4
4) NOT in a fight 5man/40man and lose internet

And also inside instance, inside raid, inside BG, outside, in combat and not combat.

Because offline=removed from group IS NOT intended behaviour in vanilla, nor any other WoW version, best proof i have is this screen, where you can clearly see offline people in raid group. Maybe lost internet=removed from group is intended behavior, but it seems weird.

Do you know why you get disconnected every hour? Maybe you should investigate that instead.
