An Examination of "Vote to Kick"

[Flarestar]

:snip:

All of the things you bring up as problems that warrant vote kick are things that are inherent problems with cross-server party formation tools. You don't have to worry or care about your reputation on the server, so people act like asshats. We've seen the exact same behavior happen in every game that's implemented it, and even to a lesser extent in games that have done server-only party queues.

That being said, one fear is absolutely valid, based on past history, which is that people will become hypersensitive to the point that newbies to dungeons will become almost unable to use the duty finder to run said dungeons - they'll have to pre-form groups to learn the dungeon to avoid getting kicked for not knowing what to do. Again, we've seen that exact problem in every game that's implemented a vote kick feature.

You can talk about the difference in communities as much as you like, but for the most part, this IS the same community that played most of the other games.
