Anybody else have this happen? I regularly have people join when the party is locked. Generally it will always be someone from my friends list/guild. I know for a fact that the party is completely locked. I don't really care, since i can go solo if i want and still be by myself. Anyhow, just wondered if anyone else has experienced this.

No i have not filed a bug report. It doesn't really bother me enough to do so, but i was curious to see if this happened to others.

yep. had my party locked,

yep. had my party locked, even to friends and guild, and in pops a random person who had friend-requested me last night out of nowhere (i've really gotta stop accepting those). neither one of us had any idea how he got there. it was depth 1, i told him he'd be fine and gave him the boot, lol...i can do without the lag i get when teaming, even in t1.

lolol

hahhaha. I like that neither one of you knew how he got there (my suspicion is he clicked on you and join was an option even though party was locked).
I lold when u told him he'd be fine and gave him the boot. :)

This happens to me everytime I'm in a locked party, even when I'm not party leader. It is like I have some form of spiral herpes. I have no remorse booting them because it's not my fault the game let them join in the first place.

Maybe it's a mix-up in the interface? I know more than a few people have accidentally set checkboxes to the opposite of what they intended.

It just happened to me again.

It just happened to me again. I invited somebody and another person joined at the same time. I'm guessing it temporarily unlocks your party or something.

No mixup here. I solo 90% of the time and never have anything but lock party checked. http://www.4mul8.net/up/files/1174_eu3sf/mixup.jpg

I've /bug'ed it. I was on an alt with no friends and not in a guild, with the party locked, and yet someone I never heard of before joined my party. I have also had my party unlocked, usually when headed into Moorcroft Manor. Or, maybe I joined someone else's party while switching levels.

This is sort of related but

This is sort of related but different. I was doing t3 but my party was open to late joiners. People did join but they were all new players in proto-gear joining me at depth 21. When my group filled up with 3 dudes in protogear getting 1 hit killed by everything I just went solo, and there were 2 more mismatched people who joined me before finally someone with real t3 access joined me.

It seems to me that the whole grouping finding system is whacked at the moment. Sending people into groups they shouldnt be in
