    An issue I have personally encountered more than once is entering an instance and meeting a premade group who needed either 1 or 2 more players and so entered the Duty Finder. Some of these groups are very elitist and will instantly insult you on a single mistake (which can happen to anyone, and of course if they make a mistake it's 'lag' or somehow my fault) - and kick you. If they want a specific job for something - they'll kick you. If they want to leave, they'll kick you, then leave themselves to avoid penalty.

    Today, I entered Ultima HM, and came across a premade group who looked like they only needed 1 healer. I died because although I thought I was outside of a Weight of the Land, part of my character's hit box must have been inside it. I made a mistake, my primary focus was healing the tank, so I moved as little as I could to avoid downtime. I apologized, but was promptly insulted and voted out.. They kicked me, because I didn't perform to their standards. An additional reason was even stated by their leader that 'we need a WHM, not another SCH'. A point I should add is that although some of them took unnecessary damage (a DRG in particular), I did not complain or even think to insult them, mistakes happen, I get over it quickly.

    I've also been vote kicked for standing up to another premade group for insulting someone for making a mistake in CT.

    I have never experienced a vote being initiated when there has not been a premade group (except for offline players, it happens).

    Needs to be changed so that a group of 3 or more cannot vote kick. The percentage to kick should also be increased slightly too.
