Say I wanted to troll you and invite two friends. As it is right now, you have no recourse except to leave and eat a 30 minute penalty. You can't kick me because I have the majority. If I were subtle and did something like spam Blizzard, any report you make to a GM will be waved aside under the "playstyle" argument.

At this point, why even have a vote kick option at all?

Logical consequence: There should not even be a vote to kick, you should simply be allowed to kick without voting at all.

Yeah... no. The issue is plain and simple that parties have an even number of players. There is no just way to democratically resolve a tie other than getting a third party to weigh in or convince the other side. Anything else clashes with democratic principles. And you can either accept that the current system simply is unjust and live with that, or try and change it by adding an impartial tiebreaker system, such as flipping a coin and randomly kicking either everyone who voted for, or everyone who voted against. Or, get a fifth man in there.
