I agree with the accountability idea. It only requies a line of text that says "X has called for ready check". Very simple solution.
I understand the desire for anonymity when vote kicking or vote abandoning since if the motion is rejected you are now the parties target for harassment. Those need more technical solutions to avoid abuse.
The ready check does not need anonymity and gives parties the satisfaction of kicking the troll who is bold enough to do it when they know who it is.
.... Then again could be that troll who wants to be vote kicked to avoid penalty.
now it would be a nightmare for they start doing it with EX primals.
No, because (when used properly) a ready check feature is just as useful to DF groups as to pre-made ones (perhaps more so, because DF won't have any static groups with voice chat).
Solutions to the problem of abusing a feature shouldn't (except as a last resort) interfere with the intended, proper use of the feature. Two of the suggestions in this thread, displaying who initiated the ready-check and disabling it during combat, are perfectly fine when it's used as intended. I think if those two things could be implemented, the vast majority of abuse would end and on the rare occasions it was still abused, the harasser could be reported and vote-kicked. We shouldn't need solutions that nerf the check's intended purpose.
Don't know if its already mentioned, but if you all pick no to ready check, the one who has it accepted is the troll spamming it. Kick him and be done with it.
That's what we did on our last CT run. Got everyone to agree on picking no and we found out the culprit. Kicked him and rest of the run went smooth.
Here is the solution, if someone is spamming ready check just nobody click and the only person that is checked is the one that is doing it. Then vote kick that person for harassment.
