I'm done with deep dungeon

[Ronaldus]

It's really frustrating to keep getting kicked from floor x9 for no reason whatsoever. So, I'm done with deep dungeon. IMO deep dungeon is another failure to add to the list right next to diadem.

EDIT: I did get a very nice response from SE on my ticket. I gave them the names of the 3 people who voted to kick me and the time it happened. SE will sort this out. I still won't be going back to it because I'm tired of having my time wasted.

If you keep being kicked there must be a true reason.

How many times has it happen and what have you done exactly before that.

[Ronaldus]

I can assure you, it was definitely for none of the reasons listed when you go to kick someone.

EDIT: On the early floors, you can safely, as a bard, kite 2-3 monsters by yourself. So I was mostly by my self exploring half the map while the rest of the party did their thing. I never led to anyones death either. I noticed they were only going for bronze and silver chests so I would clear those rooms and ignore gold chests. Well we get to floor 29, not a single word has been said in party chat since we started mind you. We discover every room and the last room has a gold chest. So I run to the teleporter to room 30. They move on and clear the the room with the gold chest and next thing you know I'm kicked.

Sounds like more a player problem than content problem. Some people have different ideas about what is the most efficient way to clear content, and they kick people who don't follow their gameplan even if the person isn't offline, afk, cheating or harassing. If you report for misuse of vote kick function, there's a generic message you get back which says players are allowed to kick due to differences in play styles. That's the message I've received before on an EU world anyway.

Most people don't get kicked from deep dungeon. What percentage of the time do you get kicked? Even if what you do doesn't hurt the team, maybe it is unusual enough to annoy other people or make them think that what you are doing is hurting the team.

There's some real @$$holes in this game, but you might not see it until the content brings it out in people. Deep dungeon brings out the @$$hole in a lot of people because everybody wants to do the runs fast and can do things that hurt the team in the process, make things chaotic and annoy the team, or be control freaks because they think its their right to tell people in a game what to do. I don't much care for deep dungeon myself because of how many idiots I've seen in it.

You said you kept being kicked.
So it happened several times right,not just once?

So it might have something to do with your playstyle indeed.
Running the floor on your own.

Or something you did wrong but didn't notice.
If it only happened once,maybe your group was dumb.

But several times...it may comes from you.

Well you let me know where it says on vote dismiss where it says: "Does not match party's play style". I guess I should kick every scrub in Weeping City who doesn't follow mechanics or every healer who doesn't DPS in between heals because they don't match my play style either. C'mon, man. Not to mention, if they had a problem with the way I was playing, you'd think they wouldn't says something on the previous 9 floors.

every scrub in weeping city, gotcha. probably kicked for running mouth, running off without party yelling at party to speed up, or making a general nuisance to the party. enough to where people will legitimately kick one from the final floor because thats even better than kicking them from the first floor to start again? Ive dcd alot in potd and only rarely have i even been kicked before i can log back on, weird that you keep getting kicked for no reason (at least claiming to run off from the rest of the party which is suicide

When someone is in a group, it usually means group effort and cooperation are required for the content.

If one person is not cooperating with the rest of the group, the group may find it more beneficial for everyone to kick this person. Seeing as the content requires a group (in other words, cooperation), someone who does not cooperate or adjust to match the play style of the party could become a hindrance.
If a healer is only healing, and not DPSing, and is not vote kicked, then the group must not find that person to be such a hinderance. But if they are kicked, then it is because they are not cooperating as a group.

Keep in mind, kicking someone requires a majority vote of the members.
With this in mind, a single person cannot kick someone from the group for not matching their playstyle. The group kicks someone from the group for not matching the group's playstyle. In other words, not cooperating or working together to accomplish a goal.

If someone wants to be part of a group, it is sometimes necessary to either:
A.) Find a group who wants to play similar to you.
B.) Adjust your playstyle to fit the group.

Otherwise, the first 50 floors of Deep Dungeon are soloable.

It's hard to say what was going on, but what stands out to me in your responses is that you said you were going off on your own a lot and also ignoring the gold chests. From my experience, most people prefer to stay together as a group. In my runs of the dungeon, there have been a couple times when splitting up the group has resulted in deaths and near wipes. Usually this is caused by traps like the landmines, silence/pacification or luring traps overwhelming half the party while the other half is a couple rooms away. Some people don't mind splitting up to explore, but there are others who don't like it and will see it as not cooperating with the group.

As far as the gold chests, normally you would want to open them all for the pomanders. I don't usually see many parties ignoring them. I know I get a little annoyed when a party I'm in tries to ignore the chests in favor of a speed run.

Also, repeatedly getting kicked on the floor right before the boss sounds like they didn't like something you did and wanted to kick you when it would hurt the most. That's just a guess though.
