Vote kick abuse and no way to properly report it

[Risvertasashi]

Well... I have a chat tab that has alliance and party chat turned off. I use it for Frontlines and Syrcus Tower.

I've found it's best to just avoid talking in those areas; it only gets negative attention and people don't use the chat modes to coordinate. If someone occasionally kicks me for being silent or because something goes wrong and they decide to play blame the healer... so be it. Doesn't happen often though.

It keeps my mood a lot higher when I don't have to see all the toxicity though. Either at other players or "OMG why didn't that stunlocked with 2-melee-and-a-bard-attacking-him healer heal me?? Best WHM 2014" type comments. If you can do that and steel yourself against the odd kick now and then, you're golden.

Edit to add: Unfortunately, SE isn't going to do anything about the vote kick. They'll say it if you file a report and GMs on the forums have come out saying basically "differing playstyles is a valid reason to kick".

That's very interesting. Because, normally when you know you aren't going to beat a group for Manor or Markets, etc. the smart thing to do is to try and take other flags like the opposing teams OPs.

The only thing I could say that may have prevented that from happening, was maybe telling everyone in party chat, "hey this isn't working, let's go check out the ____ OP."
