Vote Kick in it's current form is a nice attempt but few adjustments are necessary. Devs could've looked at other MMOs for inspiration to save people unnecessary stress.
1) You should not be able to kick if treasure is in pool (that's... obvious)
2) You should be able to kick during battle (a SMN or SCH can easily pull a boss, get everyone locked out from chamber and wait out until everyone times out)
3) Kicked person should not be placed back in the same dungeon, from which they were kicked, if they re-queue (lol...)
Vote Kick - some changes are needed

4) You shouldn't be able to kick someone if it's their first time in the dungeon.

Anyways, I digress - SE, please let us purge the scum and protect the innocents! Vote Kick needs some serious work. And soon. -
12-22-2013, 08:46 AMPinworms#2 won't work because of #1 when and if it's fixed to where we can't kick if treasure is in play - Gotta wait until the fights over otherwise people could kick towards the end of a boss to keep them from getting treasure.Quote:

Not to say I was in the right, or anything like that. But it is very easy, and very possible to do. This was also a very kick-happy party, who had kicked 2 DPS and 1 tank so far (1 DPS was kicked for spamming a long macro that he had a joke, one left due to annoyance at the general toxicity, and one tank got booted because.... well, I voted him, and he was being an a-hole.) -
12-22-2013, 08:55 AMlololinkYes it happened and was quite useful actually, someone had broken gear in CT, he asked to be kicked and came back with repaired gear^^.Quote:

They need to fix that people are getting vote kicked from 8 man parties without unanimous votes. I've seen people get kicked and I never cast a vote in favor of kicking them.
