No more Vote Kick system

This is not true. I got vote kicked twice last night in CT (MNK here) which I purely run to get the Fuma set. It was the first time I've ever been vote kicked and for absolutely no reason at all. My dps was fine, although I did die once before Bone Dragon but that was pure bad luck and not grounds for a vote kick. My raid got to Dragon and I was then vote kicked. Pissed, I ticked join in progress and got back into the same raid and party. My party appeared surprised that I had been kicked and thought I nominated myself, which I'm pretty sure you can't do. They had wiped so I made my way back to my party and got vote kicked again.

I reported the incident to a GM and noted the times when I was vote kicked, although I didn't know who nominated me to be vote kicked. GM said they couldn't do anything as they couldn't find any violations of the terms of service. So yeah, people can abuse vote kick as much as they want and get away with it.

Did it tell you why you got kicked?
I am quite sure, if they can't find anything which proves if you were wronged, but neither that you weren't they wont do a thing.
Maybe you did something you weren't aware of that ticked someone off, or someone was in the group that has a grudge against you whom you might not even know.

if the "name initiated a vote to dismiss name from the group. reason AFK" a lot of people will klick yes without checking even once.
because in CT people going AFK is a thing, people tend to believe it without checking it

It actually didn't, which is partially why I was surprised. I was just standing there with my party waiting for the MT to pull the boss and all of a sudden I got booted back to New Gridania with the message "You have been dismissed from both the party and the duty.". Twice. If you get nominated to be kicked do you actually see the name of who initiated and the reason? Because I didn't both times. It seemed random and out of nowhere. But I certainly wasn't afk at any time.

I guess that's the only possible explanation, that I did something someone didn't like or that someone there just didn't like me I guess. It's still an abuse of the vote kick system and I'm not okay with it. Heck, I can't take it when people get vote kicked in general unless they're blatantly trolling/sabotaging, are offline and don't come back online or is afk the whole time.
