When/Why were you vote kicked?

RIP VOTE KICK!

[Kedrah]

I've only been vote kicked once, and it was for apparently no reason.

It was in WoD; we wiped to the first boss because a lot of people were new and were dying, so the healers couldn't keep up very well. We ran back up and were getting ready to engage again, and... kick.

I was kicked last night because I needed on loot in LoTA. It was an iLvl 80 feet but I have iLvl 100. So I guess maybe that is why. But nothing was said before I can't. Is that normal or was I just in a bad group.

That's not normal. Chances are, someone else wanted it for whatever reason, failed to communicate this to you and got unreasonably petty/upset that you couldn't read their minds. Ah well.

I was vote kicked recently because I wouldn't pull extra adds in stone vigil normal because it was my daily and I wanted my big xp boost asap (stone vigil wasn't my highest dungeon available either so the mob xp was mediocre). Hilariously enough, when I re-queued I got put right back into the same dungeon with the same people. Very awkward and very funny!

Done all my Roulette and Dungeon runs as full clears as long as the rest wasn't completely synched (which happened twice). Still only do full runs as tank hoping to some day, magically, get one of those pople to do a full run for me while I level my DD. Still waiting.
On the other hand I wouldn't kick the tank for not doing it.


On topic - got a votekick once for no apparent reason either. Was WoD I believe ... did have so much impact I can't even recall it =I
Everyone seems to get those at some point or another.

I got kicked for trying to explain to a pair of DPS in Wanderer's Palace (Hard) that on the final boss the tethered totems (Sacred Idols) have to be killed. I'm still dumbfounded by this one. I just don't even.

It wasn't me vote kicked but i found it amusing enough to write about.

Anyway me(as blm) and another blm in brayflox hard i think it was,from the start he kept stopping and telling the rest of us that he was a 130 ilvl blm and wanted everyone to leave all the rings for him and he would do the best damage.Anyway we all just said yes to shut him up, then a ring popped up.The healer also wanted it and rolled greed,got the ring over the blm,soon as that blm spoke we vote kicked him lol.

Nothing i despise more than divas in pugs.

(oh,and i outdamaged him anyway)

I got kicked from The Keeper of the Lake once. I was tanking for the extra gil and instant queue. My tank is i116 so not too bad, but I usually heal or dps. The dps in the group were a black mage and a dragoon with full i130 and zeta weapons... The BLM continually pulled mobs before I did, went all out and pulled aggro many times on trash pulls without using quelling strikes once. The first 2 boss fights were fine, but on trash pulls he kept pulling so I got fed up and let him tank it. The healer seemed aggravated too because he didn't heal him at all and the guy fell over (lol). We got to the last boss and boom I see the loading screen and in the chat it said I was kicked from the dungeon.

I queue again right away for party in progress and get in to the same party. They are doing the last boss with no tank and managed to clear it. Throughout the fight the BLM was harassing me in chat saying that I was a shite tank. I explained that I am under geared compared to him and yet he continuously pulled aggro on purpose. He said nothing after that. After the fight I won both the items, left the dungeon, and received all 3 player commendations.... wtf!?

My husband does this ALL. THE. TIME. Saying that the obviously lowered geared tanks can't hold off of him, and I retort (sometimes resulting in an argument, rofl!) that the DPS job is to DPS AND manage aggro! (I am usually healing to I let him die cuz I've warned him, lolol).

I wouldn't worry about it though, just grab yourself a higher ilvl weapon and it should help alittle bit against the more geared players.

Edit: On Topic, I was vote kicked once..?? It was in a WoD, and some bard kept pulling the boss and I called it out (Mostly cuz the team they were on was name calling everyone else), then we all showed up to the boss and bam, loading screen. I wasn't sure what happened? All I said was, "It is your bard Team whatever." .... I was like ./shrug and went about my day.
