abuse of kick

[lotti]

i have no word..really..

tonight i play as a pld in amdapor hm, we do every boss and arrive without any wipe at the final boss, i start to cast stoneskin (apparently our sch doesn't have the lvl 34 cjn skill), and i get kicked..i don't neither finish to buff..

and this is just tonight, but in any raid, i often see many ppl kicked because of gear, dps, ecc ecc..

i'm here to say this because i love this game, but i leave it..i can't play with the terror to get kicked without reason..i don't say a word for the entire dungeon, and i tank every mob/boss as usually..

personally i prefer when this game was new and the community was adorable, now is full of elitist like every mmo..so, goodbye..

People kick for raids because, let's face it; every fight has an enrage. If your dps isn't getting anywhere close to bypassing the enrage, you don't have many options but to replace unless you're willing to teach the person how to do their rotation. In a static maybe, but not random pugs.

You must not have done any end game when 2.0 first launched. AK and coil had just as many "elitists" as end game does now. Why do you think demon wall got nerfed to hell? I'm sure it has to do more than you just casting stoneskin. They could have been douches who just wanted to get a friend in for the final boss, or perhaps there's other stuff that you just didn't realize during the course of the dungeon.

ok, so how they know that i don't do enough dps? and i close amdampor almost every day..

but i get your point..

No enrage isnt the reason. Unfortunatly theres a disgusting thing trending atm. 3 friends or fc mates or whatever, run a dungeon, and kick the 4th random person on final boss to let another friend join in progress and get his almost free poetics. They rotate who will be the 1 to join in progress and so they only have to run 75% of the dungeons. It happens rarely atm but it´s trending slowly. i´ll also quit if SE won´t be able to handle this abuse till the addon.

My favorite: go through Wanderer's Palace HM, arrive at final boss after smooth, quick progress thus far, and the healer says, "hey, we need to help a friend with his daily," to which I figure he means that 2 or 3 of them need to drop out suddenly. They kick me, presumably to replace me with their friend.

^ looks like Electrowitch beat me to it.

I've been falsely kicked a few times I'm still playing the game and plan to keep playing it's the internet I'm not gonna quit over something silly like that just shrug it off and keep playing.

thank you guys for your opinion, i fell less 'alone'..i had the same impression..i get kicked because they want a friend to finish that dgn..

i personally quit, because i don't have enough free time for do dgn with the risk to get kicked at final boss with no reason..

in my opinion, 'vote to kick' should be removed, or should only be used if someone crash for atleast 10 minutes, or go afk for atleast 5 minutes..not because 3 friends wanna kick one stranger without reason..

i report everything after 1 minute of the fact, but i really doubt that they will do something..

(sorry bad eng)

thank you again

that's not the kick per se, that's the kick in front of the final boss for get some friend in, in your place.

A false kick is a false kick regardless of reason the options on kicking ppl are AFK offline harassment and cheating of you aren't doing any of the above you were falsely kicked and i still wouldn't quit over it you're a bloody tank you get auto ques if you were strictly DPS i would kind of agree but alas just keep playing it's not like the happens everytime you do a dungeon keep your chin up and keep killing :3

If you really are being kicked without valid reason (cheating, harassment, AFK, or offline) then the best thing you can do is file a GM report against the offending players, and move on with your gaming experience. Provide as much information as you can, including the date/time, instance name, player names and their home servers.

Believe it or not, the GMs do take these reports seriously, and most of the people you encounter in the game are generally decent. Don't let a few rotten ones ruin your game.

It also helps, if you don't already, to surround yourself with other players that think, act, and play like you do. A good Linkshell or Free Company goes a long way in ensuring you never have to meet these offensive people again.
