Vote Kick abuse really needs to end.

Why don't you try reading the entire thread before spouting off your uninformed opinion?

Probably for the same reason you seem to lack basic social skills and a grasp of basic definitions and concepts of the English language. Oh, and holy hell dude, do you really need to start so many posts with, "Incorrect.", that's generally reserved for objective topics. Hell, do you even know what facts are? Spoilers: They aren't opinions.

You should know...if someone is 'too busy watching a movie' then they are not 'away from the keyboard...' -- I mean, really...

White knight the behavior all you want to, at the end of the day it gets them kicked and that's how it will continue to go ^_^

The time spent writing this would have been better spent reading through the thread so you would know what you were talking about. Sorry you couldn't do that.

Not white-knighting -- players watching the cutscenes can be an annoyance when I want a fast run, but at the same time, if they are truly new to the instance then it is highly likely that whatever they could contribute to the fight would be negligible and may actually make the run longer (unforeseen deaths, needing more healing, etc.). New players can in no realistic way hold up a group of 7, or even 6, 'veterans' in even a few mythology pieces and relics.

Like I posted long ago, you're fairly new to the game. Why not take my suggestion and be the initiator of such a vote kick -- surely since it is all allowed and a true and righteous use of the vote kick system you'll be back here to tell us how well that went for you...right?

Not white-knighting etc

It is white knighting, because these players are realistically holding up a group and they do it all the time, whether you want to acknowledge it or not has no bearing on reality.

It happens all the time. I've seen people do it and they are still around to tell the tail. I guess we can take this as proof the SE supports this.
