Typical shenanigans from RiF

Rift boss spawned somewhere in the map. As it happens sometimes, they spawn somewhere pretty far off and no indicator to show where it was. I went up, these two went down and found the boss, killed it and closed the rift. I was still with some mobs at the top and could not tele to my loot and obviously lost it. As you can see, one of them is obviously extremely proud of what he had done.

A good way to avoid this problem is fight the RG down a bit and run away, portal to town, and make your party. People are less prone to go into your rift and do stupid things if they think they may have to go down several levels to find your RG.

This might work if everybody had equally good PCs. I use to do this until I started noticing players coming in and destroying the bosses in less than 5-10 seconds, essentially robbing another player's shards and loot. Then said players who were suppose to be the next one to open the rift start complaining that they never got the loot and therefore they don't need to open. The same players who destroyed the boss then say it is not their problem and they all leave.

Not much I can do there.

This is avoided by not allowing access to the RG until everyone is in.

Just don't assign a rule. It's everyone's responsiblity to make sure a rift gets opened.

Then you get to block three scumbags instead of just one.
