    Thanks @Net, bug entered!

    In the meantime, the workaround is to kick the member from the party and reinvite.

    Net, we're not able to reproduce this issue. Perhaps a temporary networking condition that has since resolved itself? Or is there more to the repro steps?

    Not sure really. The person needs to be offline for a while. Maybe it is more likely to happen during patches?

    It happened at least twice this release and few times in the previous release, but it is hardly a rule. Could be more likely to happen when the server is busy and there are more people online? It seems to happen especially when the new release is up.

    Ok, on further review: If a party member is offline for 20 minutes, they automatically drop out the party. I suspect the bug is that the party members aren't getting that event. So in this case Sole wasn't actually in the party anymore when she re-logged in.

    Bug entered. Ref 37494

    I suppose these timestamps from chat log might help.
    Edit: I thought I was zoning at the 20 minutes mark, but that would have been in the chat log... Seems the issue is that the party sometimes does not drop people after 20 minutes?
