    And everyone would dismiss ppl for harassment then, even if it was just for kicks to get them a penalty. And the amount of manpower it would take to investigate each and every one kick wouldn't be worth it for a problem that is, frankly, small. If you are seeing a lot of toxic players than idk what is going on on your end, as someone who has been here since original launch, I would say toxicity is a small issue in this game compared to others. And find the ppl usually complaining about overwhelming toxicity to be either incredibly overly sensitive. esp for an online environment, or particularly toxic themselves and are just experiencing others players reactions to their toxicity.

    So, no, this is not at all a good idea.
    So far, you are only saying it is a bad idea without providing a remedy to help adjust the current climate.
    People being harassed in game is a serious issue. Choosing to be ignorant of that fact is callous.
    The simple fact of the matter is that there is no ongoing ramifications for people who continue to exhibit disruptive, toxic, and impolite actions.
    This is a game where we are meant to cooperate, but just the opposite happens.

    Yes, it is a blanket to a bigger problem as a whole, but something needs to be done on SE's side to prevent people from continuing to be toxic to players trying to enjoy the game.

    Blizzard gives players the ability to report and score players interactions, then follows up to ensure that the behaviour doesn't continue.
    Riot for League of Legends, provides leaver buster status for those who leave and/or kicked. Then you can respond and say exactly why they were removed.

    As of right now, SE is not actively dealing with the the fact that players, certain worlds, etc, continue to exhibit awful actions and inexcusable behaviours.
    Being removed or kicked should provide a penalty being disruptive, toxic, and continue to maintain caustic interactions.
    A penalty would lock people from continuing to immediately cause more problems for other players.
    The ability to kick at any point during the instance would mean people have to monitor their own behaviours better and more accurately.

    It's no one's job in any instance to ensure that they have to be plagued with a player who is choosing to not participate.
    Nor should honest, easy going players be bothered with trying appease a member of the group who is choosing to deliberately cause and create issues.

    Furthermore, I have many friends who have children and teens who play this game.
    Why should they be subject to being harassed by some salty person on the other end?
    What if you were a young person being harassed and called foul things from some obstinate person, wouldn't you want some protection or justice or anything because you felt you were being wrongly and unjustly targeted?
    Wouldn't you want to know that there are some protections in place to ensure and provide a safe and secure space to enjoy your form of entertainment?
