Please change the hot key to accept a party member to the group to one of the standard options such as "R" or "enter" that don't get pressed by standard combat.  Its really annoying when you forget the close the group and an extra player takes advantage to force themselves into groups labeled as duo or 3 man. 

You can kick players from your party, no need to waste devs time on that.

Don't you ever get tired of ignorance? I mean seriously, how over inflated can your ego possibly be? Who made you the arbiter of what the devs need to spend their time doing?  You CAN do a lot of things, but that doesn't stop them from improving things that they think need improving or fixing every single patch.  There is literally a fixes and improvements section on every single patch for exactly this type of thing and others.  They don't require your seal of approval to improve the game and neither do I.  Thanks but no thanks for your useless and unwanted input...I'll let the devs make their own grown up decisions on what suggestions to follow.  That's what this suggestions thread is all about btw...not to ask other players what they think the devs should be doing.  Clearly I don't value your input, so It boggles the mind why you keep going out of your way to reply to me as if I do.

So you made a whole paragraph to tell me that because you don't like me I should not be allowed to post ?

Try running a private blog maybe, it seems more suited to your needs, especially since you report a niche scenario on top of the fact a fix already exists.

Furthermore, you literally report a niche scenario issue which is mostly self inflicted: who even tries to abuse the hotkey party mechanics since you can get kicked from the party by its leader. Since 2016 it's the literal first time I see anyone complain about this supposed issue.

Those are facts, feel free to address them or refrain from quoting me again with nonsense.

So you made several whole paragraphs to complain that I complained about your hyprocisy.  We both CAN engage in infantile behavior...following each other around the forums...like you already seem to do to certain people.  I assume you get off on that somehow.  

Maybe you should take a step back and figure out what the suggestions forum is about (communication with devs...not you).  You already seem to know that though...which is why you made your own suggestion post...that was also not aimed at player response...you just seem to have an over inflated ego that tells you that everyone else needs your opinions. 

I guess Its good that I taught you some new words to parrot, but that does nothing to change the validity of the scenario.  I could care less about whether you have personally been in any specific scenario.  For all I know, you don't even party for any top end content...sounds like you just sit around spamming celerity draughts...getting mad that PA gave a few away for free.  I don't normally spend much time responding to suggestions about things that don't involve me though, so there's that. 

Your "facts" consist of when you started playing this game? (don't care).  Whether you have personally been in a group that someone abused the party finder join mechanic? (don't care). I guess it sounded impressive in your head to call those facts?

Just like in your suggestions thread, I'll point out that Pearl Abyss does spend time improving in game mechanics consistently...every single patch.  Therefore your commentary was invalid nonsense that served no purpose.  Maybe keep that in mind when you feel the need to assume your opinion of what deserves developer time is worth is important on someone else's suggestion thread.

Grats on somehow managing to believe I'm a celerity draught consumer despite the fact I explicitely stated I was a producer and a seller. I mean, if you applied a basic thought process to your nonsense, wouldn't it be weird for a consumer to complain about low market prices.

Lastly and as I stated already and patiently, this isn't your personal blog. Public forums aren't for you to talk to the devs exclusively, there are for any forum user to freely discuss suggestions, which adds value to said suggestion.

My personal opinion is that your suggestion is a waste of ressource given how easy is it ty bypass the supposed issue. Again it's just an opinion, no need to get butthurt about it.
