I've kicked players for wearing the wrong gear!

[Nedkel]

I kick players every couple of days for this.

Level 65 dungeon and someone has lvl 60 gear or under? Out.
Level 70 dungeon and you're not in full 70 gear, even if it's just the class stuff? Out.
Level 60 dungeon and you're using full level 50 gear? Out.

I'm sorry but personally, I am not here to carry anyone. Besides, 9/10 times when you question these type of people why they are doing that, you will be insulted, overall met with hostility, or the famous "you don't pay my sub."

They're right, I don't pay their sub, what they don't seem to understand is that they don't pay mine either. No one is under any obligation to play with these kinds of people and carry them.

Why do some people defend this behaviour?

I'm sorry but how is wearing terribly under leveled gear or plain and simply the wrong gear acceptable? Why is wasting the time of everyone else in the party acceptable? 1 person isn't more important than the group, it's the other way around.

Wearing the wrong gear is not considered playing your own way.
Wearing level 50 gear in a level 60 dungeon is not considered playing your own way.
No one is asking anyone to be the top players.
No one is asking anyone to minmax and output the highest level of damage possible.
No one is asking for anything out of this world.
We are asking for BASIC COMPETENCE.

This is bannable offence.
You are asking someone to get ilvl above requirements.
In roulette for 50-60lvl item level is synced to the duty so it only requires 45 ilvl, on lvl 70 dungeons roulette there is an avg item level of 330 required, an 360 for expert dungeons.
If they could play the duty, they meet the requirements and you are just obstructing their gameplay by kicking them for gear they wear, its against the ToS.
