Be careful being rude to people in DF

So either you were the rude one and got kicked or you were part of the FC members and kicked someone. My guess is the FC. The FC kicking the rude person would be the ones in trouble if said rude person reported them.

Harassment, also known as verbal assault, is not only a viable reason to boot someone from a group, but it is also against the Terms of Service under 3.6: Any Illegal Activities. You may not conduct any illegal activities whatsoever in connection with the Game. This includes every illegal activity not specifically highlighted above, including without limitation gambling, defamation, harassment, and fraud.

Of course, this doesn't mean that some groups don't abuse it and should be reported, they most definitely should. But I have been in groups where we have used the kick function to remove someone being a complete tool who picked one person in the group to just ride the entire run, that person not saying anything to them in response or deserving the abuse. But still, it goes both ways, and you should always try to be as polite as possible to everyone, leaving a good impression is always good in the long run in life and in game.

tl;dr calling the GM's because a group booted you after you were being an ass will not get you any justice, in fact it could get you in more trouble.
