Were we in the right to kick?

Unskilled play should never, ever be a legitimate reason for removal from a public group. Its better that the group just disband.

Can't be serious. If anyone can successfully argue that one player's choice to antagonize and hinder the group should be upheld at the expense of everyone else's enjoyment, I'd love to hear this miraculous argument.

The replies in this thread that seem to support the MCH's "right" to be a gigantic pain in the ass concern me. If a player is disruptive, is challenged on their disruptive behavior, and refuses to correct it, it's difficult to fault the group for not wanting that player to stay. Seems quite simple.

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one. For one, It's easy to say that it's better for the group to disband when you're a tank and your ques are instant. The Drg probably waited 15 minutes to an hour for that que. Just based on que times alone, no. It is not better to disband when 3 out of 4 players are fine and one is harassing the group.

Two, if it were better to just disband the group instead of boot the player, progression parties would be utterly screwed when raiding. It might not be a big deal in regular dungeons or old content, but could you imagine if everyone just disbanded 8 man raids because 1 player wasn't doing their job right? No one would ever clear anything.
