    These reasons are way easy on trolls and jerks out there. 5 mins? why so long? if the party kicks for afk there is a reason, they are afk, 5 mins is plenty of time to move a second and go back to watching tv. Should be 30 seconds at most. A group of people won't vote to kick someone who says "afk a min" I never see anyone complain when someone says something similar. The badmouthing option won't help anyone either can't be kicked for language since a filter is in place. Nothing wrong with an entire party voting to kick someone, and if party is full of players that like to grief single people and kick for no reason? sorry I just don't see it. Kicks would be used when justified. And as long as there is a ilvl req. no kicking due to low gear will exist anymore.

    And if im in a CM, and right after a trash pack, i announce i need to go to the toilet. Takes me about 30 seconds to TO the toilet in my house, let alone do whats needed and get back. And the people who live in multi story houses? And what about people who ask for a minute to answer the phone?

    Every system can and will be abused. Vote kicks can be abused. AFK checks can be abused.
    Gear boots cant happen because we get ilvl reqs on DF queues at the same time. We cant have undergeared players in DF runs after that.
    There are systems they can put in to stop most unrequired boots.
    For example, when kicking, have a box open with options containing legit reasons for a kick. Harrassment and long AFKs, Im talking 10+ minutes, if you haven't attacked anything in that time or spoken, then you become eligible for an AFK kick, initiating a Harassment kick would cause a slight check in the chat logs, certain keywords would cause you to be come eligible for that.
    However it should require all party members agreeing on the reason for the Vote, not just "Kick yes/no?".

    No matter what safeguards you put in place however, The Tank will basically be allowed to do what he wants with impunity because Tank queue is instant, "do what i tell you or ill ditch you to another 40 minutes waiting for a tank" is what we will see a lot.
