    If the MVP system is going to be similar in actual use by players to the one used in SWTOR PvP, as I'm fairly certain it will be, I don't think anyone is going to care after the first week or so. Most of us would only occasionally pick someone with the intent of giving them a MVP medal. The rest of the time, people would either just leave without voting (thus meaning they couldn't be voted for as well) or randomly choose someone to throw a medal at. Every medal you got added a bonus to your reward, so even if just 1 person chose you for MVP, you'd walk out with a small extra something. It was harmless and just gave people an opportunity to be charitable without spending more than a couple seconds.

    In other words, the MVP system will do nothing but potentially give you a bonus. It will not hurt you in any way.

    This may be true and if there weren't exclusive rewards I don't think anyone would care. But if there are exclusive rewards like mounts, pets, etc. it will still be problematic.

    Vote Kick could be.... pretty horrible :l No doubt it will be good for getting rid of straight up antisocials and trolls, but abuse could be a big factor.

    Getting voted out because you don't meet some arbitary standard others in the party have, making one silly mistake and suffering the rage of some insane perfectionists, getting kicked for watching cutscenes, making it close to the end and get troll kicked by the rest of the party..... all of this is undoubtedly going to happen. Excuse me while I go cry in the corner.

    One of the best ways to prevent abuse of a vote kicking feature is to add a "kick" memory to each player. If someone uses the kick too frequently, then they incur an increasingly lengthy IRL timer until the next time they can kick. It's not fool proof, but it makes people try to save kicks for when they get someone who is actually really bad/goofing off instead of just kicking someone because their gear is slightly sub par.
