NOT disbanding group on disconnect?

[mmcookies]

If your group has been saved to an instance (raid, heroics), then logging off alone will not dissolve the group.
You can still manually disband it.

ahh that explains it - thx

Why dont you make your team a raid prior to entering instance? ... you wont drop group when logging out or disconnecting.

Use jamba, I love it's group invite feature. Makes the whole experience painless.

Yesterday when i was doing MC for my second binding, i disconnected since i pushed my router with my foot ( ;_; ) and when i logged back in, the group was disbanded, shitlaods of mobs on me, and my group invite macro couldn't execute since i was in combat. I wasn't getting ported, so i just kept healing and killing all mobs. When i went out of combat, i got the message that i was getting ported to closest GY, so i hurried using my invite macro. What happens? I was still getting ported, and couldn't do shit about it.

This has only happened to me when I logged out while in a raid.

This has happened to me a few times. The thing to watch out for is who the instance currently belongs to. That person needs to do the inviting. It's not always the person who was leader earlier.

Always, it'll be the person who ISN"T getting ported. When this happens to me, I wait a few seconds, see who isn't getting ported, and have that character invite everyone.

If someone else does the inviting, the game sees it as a group being in an instance that isn't theirs, so you still get ported out.

I've gotten the shaft a few times on this. nothing worse than being at the last boss and have your DSL drop only to loose your whole team and which instance you used to be in. Not so much a problem for a heroic team but if your leveling up some alts it really bites.
