    You’ve said this on several threads. While there is policy that says you can vote kick people for different play styles (eg 3 don’t want to watch cutscene can vote kick the newbie), the newbie is NOT violating the terms of service.

    Never in the history of this game has there ever been a case that supports this opinion.

    The opposite, however, does have support (eg. Main scenario cutscenes are now unskippable).

    So, yes, you and your friends have license to be massive wang-rods if you really want to, but no, the newbie isn’t breaking ToS, despite how many times you keep saying they are.

    For the record, there is nothing specific in the ToS about “disruption of gameplay”.
    It’s just a huge blanket statement, which may or may not even involve actual game play, they could be talking about bullying, they could be talking about DDOSing…
    (3.2 Disruption. You may not in any way disrupt or interfere with the Game experience of other players, including the disruption of Square Enix's computers and servers.)



    Now, the actual list of prohibited activities does go into detail.
    It says, very clearly, “Obstruction of Gameplay” and lists specifics on what it means. No where in there is “going slow and watching cutscenes” mentioned. In fact, what they mean by obstruction is stuff like overlapping NPCs so players can’t select or otherwise causing players to be unable to progress. Slow =/= obstruction.


    Read the fricking ToS…
