Question to the devs:

If only those who were in the guild at the start of a raid can participate and are eligible to rewards, why not automatically post 0 damage for them?

As you are not offering a lockdown period and e.g. Rancor T7 goes down in less than 10 minutes why not give everyone a chance for the rewards?

Cause it allows inactivity to get rewards which wouldnt be fair

Then again it would be fair as my guild had someone solo the raid and post before over half of the guild even got a chance. And with so many able to solo it these days I think auto 0 would be a good thing.

You think it is worse that two inactive players get rewarded than 35 active players not getting anything because with 4x Rancor just died in a few minutes?

You know that people must participate to get raid tickets in a sensible time?

You thought that only those in the guild at the start of the raid get rewards...

So only post players who have been active in the last 24 hours to the leaderboard when the raid begins.

something for nothing....

If your opening up ffa at launch what do u expect lol

It doesn't even have to be a ffa at start. Enough people can solo it that even if you implement 24 hour rule that still doesn't stop someone from soloing it as soon as it starts, now the entire guild is out rewards. Yes I know most guilds would boot this player after doing it once I'm just saying the whole guild shouldn't have to miss out because they weren't able to post a 0 before the raid was finished.

Then do a 24 hour zero dmg registration period like most guilds do

The point is this is a silly workaround that shouldn't be needed. If inactives are a concern, then make it so anyone who was active within the past 24 hours of the raid completion gets a least last place rewards.

This has been brought up a bunch of times, but it appears it's never going to happen. I still think that if you contributed 600 raid tickets the day before the raid was launched, you should automatically be registered with a 0 on the raid board. You have been active, you already paid your dues. Sometimes life does not allow for raid schedules. We should not miss out completely because of that.

Not like racking up a 0 damage isnt ALSO essentially something for nothing. This just cuts out the middleman.

The player still needs to be active to claim their reward, as you lose them from the box after a certain amount of time.

Boot. And there should be an Expel option to keep that player from ever joining your guild again.
