Is the vote kick system improperly implemented for how it's actually being used?

[Yeol]

But that then means you'd be harassing the tank by forcing him to do smaller pulls (which he doesn't want) and then you'd kick him if he doesn't comply to your harassment.

Wow. You've literally justified mobbing there. Gee, you should really think that through again. Playstyle differences aren't harassment.

Yes, you are correct, playstyle difference is not harassment. It is FORCING others to play your way that is bad here.

Always go with group vote. If tank wanted to do a large pull but everyone else said no, why would he still do it?
It will be a waste of time followed by wipes if the healer wasn't able to keep him up. And in the end, eventually, the party will kick him because he forced his way.

Tank in this situation needs to use his mind. He is not a victim of the healer and dps. It is part of his role to do what is best for the party. And the party said exactly what they needed of him. What did he do? Ignored them.

If you remember that tank complaining on the forums that he kept getting kicked from multiple DF groups, and it turned out because he never listened to his healers?
And what did people tell him? Fix your attitude and do what is best for your party.

Now, I will pass kicking for different playstyle but my point is that it gets abused a lot. Which is the complaint here.
If it is an issue, simply replace it with something else or fix it.
