    I've experienced this a few times recently, and have come to the conclusion that it is indeed a dick move. It's also counterintuitive. If you don't like a party, for whatever reason (usually because progress is stalled) going AFK is not going to progress you either. You're better off politely asking for an abandon, or to be kicked. As long as you played like an adult to begin with, I can't see a party not complying with your request. Once free (because you acted like an adult) you are on your way to recuing for another battle.

    I've seen an awful lot of people who were perfectly respectful and mature request a kick or try to abandon a duty that isn't working out, only to be ridiculed and held hostage by people and their ego. It would be fantastic if what you said in this quote was true but in my experience, most of the time I see people request a kick, it ends with them having to afk/dc in order to get it. Unfortunately it requires the rest of the party to become adults as well in order for this to work out.
