Sick of unjust vote dismisses

[NovaLevossida]

Threatening to pull ahead of the tank would probably make me vote dismiss you for harassment almost immediately. People are a dime a dozen and there is little reason to tolerate bullying.

That too. If I were on my tank, I just wouldn't tank what the person pulled. Best way to correct bad behavior is to let bad behavior lead to its logical and obvious conclusion / punishment.

Your general attitude OP, leads me to believe that you're not always getting kicked for no reason. But that's besides the point.

The group needs majority vote to kick someone, if you don't like that you're constantly getting singled out, form your own group of friends to do some dungeons. Until then, make sure you're not giving people reasons to kick you.

Right, except the majority of people don't even think when they vote..
It really comes down to who pulls the trigger first, if there's any argument going on in the group, if I decide to initiate a votekick and just choose a random person that wasn't even involved in the argument, I'm willing to bet that over 50% of the time, I'd get the vote to go through

It's on the players to exercise caution when votekicking, so I try to read everything when the menu pops up to make sure I'm not kicking the wrong person, but it does happen more often than not.

I remember one time I got votekicked in ST because I was talking back to a tank, it was an easy run, we skipped all the boss mechanics etc.. So it was a cakewalk.. Now I'm a WHM in this run, and a Lalafell. so when I see a purple orb on Amon fight, I run into it and get the super mini, start running around for fun. Apparently, the tank takes offense at this and starts getting mouthy I just tell him something along the lines of stop being such a hard ass, this is an easy run..

Right before Xande, the bastard kicks me and it actually passes. Mind you, it was JUST the tank that had a problem with my antics, I was healing perfectly fine (subpar, but nobody died) it was ST for christ's sake, that's the only time I've ever gotten votekicked. Not that I cared, I just queued for another one right away.

Point is, too many people just click kick without actually reading the reason, some don't even read WHO the votekick is for.

I'm going to necro this thread (because what else is the search function for?) because I was kicked earlier today from a group by two people who were probably in a party together (since they had the same last name and were a tank/healer combo).
Now maybe it's just me... but I feel like people in a party should maybe only have a combined 1 vote or something to avoid party abuse...

[MrSmiley]

never been kicked or seen an unjust kick, just sayin

You just think too much dude... Ignore that and enjoy the game, you will never meet them again why worry about that?

Yes. It seems to mostly be tanks initiating votekicks from what I can tell.


I had a very amusing dungeon where a tank wiped us because he pulled 10 mobs + took massive damage + couldnt keep aggro on any of them. And after he blamed me for it and kicked, I got back into the dungeon. GG.

I honestly dont know what is up with the tanks in roulette. They have even bigger ego issues then the ones in WoW, and thats saying alot.

He got 3 commendations after too, LOL.

I have never been vote kicked in my entire time playing. The only time I ever see people get vote kicked is if they get disconnected for an extended period of time or if they afk in any Crystal Tower raid.

Maybe it is a Primal data center thing? Skimming through some of these responses, each person that mentions it being a problem happens to be on a server that is on the Primal data center.....

(Old thread but whatever)

I got kicked once for talking too much. As the healer I made sure everyone was at 85% HP or higher and I did some dps aswell. The dungeon run was smooth, but the tank did not like that I was trying to be friendly to the group. I asked questions like how is everyone doing? or what are you looking forward to the new expansion (this was last year), but the tank was not happy and just before the final boss, he typed my name + goodbye and I got kicked.

Now whenever I join a dungeon, I type Hi and Goodbye, those are the only words that I use when playing with strangers.

imb4 people just didn't like you in that particular run? if it's a constant thing you need to check, a) are you talking to people non stop? and why? b) are you going out of your way to be bad, pull stuff etc c) were you failing at a mechanic over and over again and not improving.

Not sure if you're addressing me. But no, this wasn't anything about being good or bad. The healer was just being a jerk to the BRD i.e. "You're a n00b" etc. I told him he hadn't leveled a Bard past 50 so he couldn't really talk about BRD playstyle and /boot.
