Please add Vote Kick: Idlers in CM/Leeching

But I do agree, if you're pulling trash and one member is sitting at the start, then he's leeching and he needs to be removed, you shouldn't be clicking commence if you're going to go afk.

And increase the penalty time to 1 hours for rage quitters.

This needs to happen now, just had a tank ragequit ifrit because of no mage/summoner (it's more than doable without this). So he just screwed me and others over (personally waited 30 minutes...) and then he can just queue again and still get in before me, seems fair.

That would help reduce the chances of an unfair kick, such as a guy lags a little bit and the PT leader sends up a vote and one member may be considerate and say give him a moment in case of lag or accidental disconnect.

Yeah, then the people out to troll will join in groups just to boot a pugger. Or the tank will sit there "I'm not moving until you all click to yes to kick <player>". Or people will initiate the kick to see who hits "yes". Having old wow flashbacks....

As to the people saying they should increase the penalty for leaving to an hour....lets see how much you want to have an hour punishment for trying to get away from 3 guys in a random group that are doing nothing but running in circles and calling eachother racial slurs for fun just to get you to drop and get the lockout.

Yeah it sucks to get these groups, but they have to be careful when adding stuff like this.

Votekick was an option in Rift and out of the literally thousands of dungeon runs I did, it was (arguably) abused once. We vote kicked a guy before a final boss so we could invite a guildy to the instance. The dude was being a douche, and we didn't feel bad about kicking him. In rift, the system had some checks - a person couldn't be kicked within the first few minutes and a person couldn't be kicked mid-boss fight. But then again, dungeon runs in rift meant nothing anyway because there were so many raid instances.

If WoW's userbase can have a votekick and use it for good more than bad, I'm sure FFXIV's community can manage that too. The devs just need to be smart about its implementation.
