Unlike leaving a party, vote kick has a cooldown. The people who don't want to vote kick are not the ones trying to circumvent a penalty in this example. If everyone did this because of no penalty, and the fact it's not YOUR cooldown that's being used, you're shit out of luck if everyone has their kick on cooldown. Which might as well be the case if everyone has the option to be vote kicked to avoid a penalty for whatever reason.

They're the one who purposely instigated delaying the party first for their own reason, whether it be to avoid a penalty or just to troll the party, both of which is player harassment.
