Vote Kick is completely broken in Syrcus Tower

[AurelienRainier]

I am infuriated.

Just got out of a Syrcus Tower run. BLM in party goes AFK. We start the fights and the BLM is AFK throughout two of them, so we decide to kick her for being AFK (gave her ample time).

But we can't, because she hasn't rolled on the item that dropped. So someone pulled, and we couldn't kick her because we were in a fight.

So the fight ended and she was still AFK, and we still couldn't kick her, because she hadn't rolled on the new item that just dropped.

Ad nauseam.

So we finish Syrcus with this dead, AFK BLM in our party. Then an Oil of Time drops. She decides to come back, rolls on the Oil, gets it, and then leaves.

Are you kidding me? The Vote Kick system needs a complete revamping, IMO.

Report for harassment/griefing. That's all you can really do. :/

What is worse are ppl who come in as a group and then let their fc buds afk. I have run more than a few ct and st runs where we have a full pt of 8 but only have 5-6 fighting, vote-kick is denied and you are threatened or taunted til you leave on your own.

Looks like you got set up

You were lucky enough that they didn't vote kick you after seeing Oil of Time drops.

Thats been happening a lot on my server too. I've also seen players kicking people before the last boss to get the oil of time. Thats happen to me a few times too. Sometimes i get lucky and finish the last boss lol.

If you took the time to read, or understood how vote kicking even worked, you would know that once loot drops you are no longer allowed to vote kick until everyone has rolled on the loot and it has been distributed.

You're complaining about this now? You must not have done the Crystal Tower where kicking was the norm.

That's really vile.. I would not have even fathomed something like that happening over here.

Happened to me once. Simple: Communication. i wrote in alliance chat: Hey we have someone afk here right from the beginning(we just defeated second boss, been at amon). Can you please wait to pull till the loot timer expanded. 2 min pls. "sure np". waited. kicked. done. Talk to your raid, instead of bitching afterwards because no one said something.
