    If they are asked to use a move, say they will, then they don't until someone dies, and then they spam said move over the dead body... that's harassment. Directly and purposely making the game worse for others, it doesn't get much more cut and dry than that. If a healer was asked to use cure, they said they will, then they just let the tank die, and then stand over the tank spamming cure on themselves... pretty obvious that it was intentionally done, right? Nobody is saying to just kick everyone you don't think is good, but when someone intentionally makes people die "for teh lulz" then yeah, they deserve a swift boot out of the dungeon. 9/10 a bad player will say "Sorry I'm really trying and just not getting it," or at least say something to convey that they aren't trolling. A troll will usually remain silent or say something along the lines of "Y u mad tho, bro?"

    And to play devil's advocate, while I personally don't agree with it but I see the need to have a ruling on a grey area, almost any kick can be justified with "We had differing playstyles." GMs view that as an acceptable reason to vote dismiss.

    Honest question to both of you: did you thoroughly read the OP's post? He described a tank that was purposely NOT using flash (after being asked to, and agreeing to use it) just to let people die so he could laugh and then spammed flash over their dead bodies. He did not describe a tank who didn't know what they were doing.

    ETA- Just to add to my wall of text, the people who suggested kicking ALSO suggested to talk to the person in question before kicking them to determine if they are actually trying, and when referencing "bad players" they were obviously referring to trolls. Who are bad players.
