    The group could randomly decide as you're not doing #1 damage for that job in the world (for maximum efficiency in the run), you should be kicked from the group. Playstyle difference. Acceptable reason to kick as far as GMs are concerned.

    Now, for the 2 deaths:
    1) Just say "Sorry, my bad". Had I been in the group, my response would have been "that's OK"
    2) Did the AoE come after the LB animation lock had been started? If so, then it sucks, but nothing much you could have done (had I been healer, I may have tried to rescue you out of that). Just explain AoE came after animation lock started, and no problem as far as I'm concerned.

    Unfortunately, as someone else has said, I think your lack of communication is what busted you here. I continually say that communication is key (heck, I'm usually the first to own up to my mistakes), and this just helps solidify it. Had you communicated with us about it, from my perspective, the worst that would have happened to you is you'd have lost my commendation, which let's be honest, isn't exactly a big deal. But if you don't communicate, the group will, for better or for worse, assume you were trolling or otherwise impeding the run. That will be why you got kicked most likely.

    My in-game wife is a healer. You speak the truth. I kept big pulling in Bardam's Mettle because she could cope with it fine and nobody died (we had a BLM in the group during the farm). One pull she just decides she's had enough and runs away from the pack leaving me to die. My BLM friend was "Stop appeasing the black mage and start appeasing your wife"

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

    Take the whole "difference in playstyles" thing with a grain of salt. It is so incredibly vague, that what it basically does is give the GMs the freedom to take action when they feel it is warranted, rather than be strictly bound to some loophole-rich set of rules. If a GM thinks your complaint is worthwhile, they'll take action; another GM might decide differently. So, if you feel as though you've been treated unfairly, don't be afraid to report. "Difference in playstyles" basically boils down to "GM's fiat".

    However, in this case, I highly doubt any GM would take action. By the looks of it, you were having a pretty derp-tastic run, and quite possibly giving the others in the party the impression that you were trolling. While I probably wouldn't have kicked you, I'm a lot more patient than most.

    Sometimes I have to remind people in this forum who solo queue all the time, you can't just assume everybody else is solo. You could be the only solo person in an FC-party of three in that dungeon. That's not to say if you sneeze incorrectly you could be at-risk to be kicked. But you have to realize voting power isn't in your favor.

    Of course every now and then some jockey shows up who thinks it's okay to use the chat as their way to handle turrets syndrome.

    So the best advice, play good, get along, make things work.
