Hello, not sure if this is intended but it is kind of annoying so thought I'd bring it to your attention. When you request certain missions (ex: the anniversary task "Unity") you get a request timer of 1 hour. Ok cool. However if you /taskadd someone later, they also get a request timer, however their request timer is for the full 1 hour regardless of how long the task has been running. The request timer should be consistent from the zone spinning up / initially requested, not when adding additional players to the task.
The way it works after this patch basically penalizes you for joining an in progress mission if there is a request lockout So you have to decide if you want to help someone or not based on the request lockout timer
