Players have ruined deep dungeon for people who want chests

[Reinha]

Instead of trying to police random people, you could just...not play with random people?

Make friends and play with them or do solo runs instead of being disrespectful to other people's time.

Not policing anyone, just there to get loot from the only place it can be obtained from. If you run with random people you take the risk that some people aren't there to speed run in max gear and they need the loot. I'll run back to get a chest in PotD, HoH, dungeons and alliance raids if I need it. People can kick me for it and see what happens.

That's still only one of multiple and conflicting potential uses for the content. Threatening to report them for your favoring your use of the content over the majority's --or pretending yours, alone, is common sense-- doesn't change that.

I wouldn't dream of reporting someone for having a different preference or even voicing their preference. I wouldn't report or kick someone for ignoring my objective (when they run over silver chests) and I wouldn't try to get someone to change their play style after I make a simple polite request to pick up loot. If they want to stand at the exit because they don't want a mimic or a bomb from chests, they are free to do so. They are only making it slower for themselves.

But if I'm not offline, afk, cheating, harassing, rp-walking backwards, /sitting, taking screenshots or getting mobs to kill my character or other characters on purpose, and they kick me just for looting in a dungeon, that's when I let a GM decide the best outcome. It's never happened yet because most players have more common sense than to kick someone or defend kicking someone for that reason.

Keep in mind that game management has been adamant that a "difference in playstyle" (include, majority wants A and minority wants mutually-exclusive B) is a valid reason to kick.

While I can't see myself ever kicking someone for this reason unless they were being a complete *ss about it by refusing to move on until they've killed every possible mob (which would only slow their own rate of chest acquisition anyways), a kick in that circumstance would seems to clearly fall under that clause.
