When/Why did you vote kick?

[Viuiji]

Let's look at the other side of this thread.

So, when/why did you vote kick a party member/s?

I haven't been in a party that has vote kicked someone, although I did 'kick' myself once from CC when learning to heal. I caused 3 wipes and the tank left (can't blame him really). The party was happy for me to keep going but I just felt under skilled. I said sorry, that I felt it was beyond me at that point in time and left.

I vote kicked once. Guy disconnected and didn't come back for 6-7 min.

Enthralling i know.

This has been the entirety of my kicking career. I often see myself out before things escalate out of control, dealing with drama is not an enjoyable part of my dungeon experiences.

Haven't initiated a kick as yet. But have voted yes for one. They were afking during Wod. Ain't nobody got time for that.

If you are on Elemental Data centre, which Tonberry is in, you would have a chance of meeting this player with the initials M.M. (can't name but the name rhymes due to Lalafell convention). You would probably kick him/her if you ended up in the same party. Only time I ever vote-kicked someone. Plays like a bot. And doesn't respond at all. Worst of all, he/she plays a Paladin. Doesn't use either stance despite being told in English, Japanese and auto-translate.

Pretty mundane stuff actually. Some tank in a 4 person dungeon zoned in and took off before the party was ready, got himself killed then warped back to start and swapped into a level 1 sailor shirt and immediately ran back out to pull the mob again. Tried for several mins or so before getting a kick through because the dum-dum had aggro on him almost constantly so we had to time the kick right so it went through right after he died and warped back. :P

I've only seen one vote kick that wasn't for a disconnected player. That was for a tank in a group who refused to play. The healer loaded in first and accidently pulled the first mob. The tank finished loading and started throwing a fit because we didn't wait for him to pull. He then thought he could sit there and do nothing because we need a tank and he is irreplaceable. So we kicked him and a new tank joined in about 20 seconds.

Kicked someone from WoD for disconnecting at the start of every boss fight and magically coming back after the boss was dead.

Sometimes I kick when someone's offline for long enough to make it seem like it wasn't just a simple disconnect. More often than that, though, I run into people who insist on being jerks for some reason. Either they refuse to do their job, or they're just rude as hell without provocation. Kicking those feels like such a relief. Luckily people like that aren't all too common, however.

AFKs, disconnects, and exceptionally vocal jerks are the only reasons I've ever kicked someone.

If a party member isn't particularly skilled at their job or at boss mechanics, it usually makes things more fun for me. The truly epic runs are never smooth, I don't understand why uneventful dungeons are so desired.
