Seems odd that something this frustrating for players, inability to complete dungeons due to grouping misbehaving, would go unfixed and uncommented on for as long as it has. Feedback request (the source of the original thread) was over a month ago and ANet has not yet posted back to say that they’re working on a fix. We know this wasn’t fixed in the latest patch as there are still posts being added to the thread with incidents of groups being separated. From some crude observations it appears to be more of a problem on EU servers, so perhaps there’s a data center issue at the root of the problem? At best I’m shooting in the dark but hopefully bringing some focus to the continued issue will help bring it back to light for players and the developers at ArenaNet. ( No comment as of yet from Anet )
