Justified kick for defense? Frontlines Shatter

[GillianGraceB]

I also say in chat what im doing, and call out crystals, what team we should attack, whos at the base, and if i need back up. Im not getting kicked for fear of AFK, its for doing a strat. At one point I have a 5 kill streak, killed 2 ices, and was still kicked for hiding at base and defending despite the fact our base repeatedly being attacked by singles from opposing team. And if more then one person voices their complaint in what im doing, i will follow their directions. If one person is just complaining about me being AFK i explain the benefit of it, they go silent, then i get kicked. They need to fix the kick feature so people wont report a abuse kick when players aren't playing my way. I never just stay in Hide, I join in when people are at our base, or pushing toward, I help crystals if near by. I take bases sometimes if its a slow! we were given bases in Shatter for a reason. Defending shouldn't be a kickable offense by anymeans.

Only one person was complaining, no one else. And i wasn't just doing nothing. If i was AFK, I wouldnt be saying anything, wouldn't have any kills, or ever call for back up. I wasn't feeding, I was using a perfectly good strat. Again "HES NOT PLAYING MY WAY!" should never be a valid reason to kick someone. the dude who kicked me for like the second time in PVP for not playing his way , when hes like the only one complaining, has no reason to kick me. I wasnt cheating, hurrassing, AFK, or offline. If you like my strat or not, i will explain and listen to the majority, not one kid complaining. Just the next match a few people told me to attack Ice, and i did that, despite the base being taken by many a solo dps i would have been able to stop.

And i personally find in 72 it is useless to ninja hide, because they come in big groups, whole parties. While in 24 its more likely just to be a single player or a healer and tank which is easy to take down. And if it is a big group, warn the team, especially since the chat doesn't tell you til its taken, stay hidden and dont feed. Once they start to leave immediately take it back. You have 7 other people to attack ice and feed the enemy. ONE person defending isn't going to make you lose, and is a strat that has gotten the GC a win. By no means is it ever a kick able offense, even if it is a poor strat to you. Can I kick a non dpsing healer now since they annoy me and could pretty much be AFK !

Protip: You can bypass the character limit by editing your posts and adding what you need to say. It's a much better option than quad/triple posting.


Anyway, from someone who hasn't even tried raids or any form of PVP in this game, I have to say that you've got to get out there and take a risk sometimes to be able to contribute to your team. Your playstyle sounds like it only works in very specific situations, and unless those conditions are met it probably looks like you are just idling. Don't be so afraid of losing that you put inefficient self-handicaps on yourself.

I don't want to sound rude, but I don't think staying hidden at your own base can be called actively looking for PvP. I understand what you are trying to do, but if a team shows up to take over the base there is almost nothing you can do as a NIN.
Instead use Hide for walking into enemy bases unnoticed and cap them for your own team. Also your primary role is DPS, you have to deliver damage (obviously) to enemy players and ice. You should help your team out accordingly.

Leave defending bases to tanks, they can usually buy enough time/kill the attacker until backup arrives.
Edit: Basically what Garza said hhh, I should read everything next time.

I wouldn't call you rude, but I would call you wrong. OP's responses on this are on point.

But, in any content you do thru df, you have a chance of getting kicked for playing properly. If getting kicked hurts you that bad then just play it differently.

Base in Shatter isn't that important. Losing one player to defend it isn't worth it at all. Shouldn't do that, especially if your team told you not to do it.

Are you sure you are being kick from the match or time allotted for standing in one spot and not doing anything expelled you from the match? Or could it be you have a familiar face that hates you and is initializing the kick options on you every time they see you?

[awesomega]

Are you mouthing off or something? Im always roaming around solo messing around, trolling bridges, hiding out, ect... I've have yet to be kicked. Perhaps Mael holds people to a higher game standard than the rest of the gc's.

I always move around, so it isnt an AFK feature. And no, I just give my point of view of why I think its a good idea. If enough people tell me no, i dont. if one person is giving me attitude but no one else is. I stay with what im doing, unless its a slow night then typically i go to steal or help.
