Should the group fix mechanical errors and deaths? Absolutely. But just brute forcing through is why you'll see Samurai pulling 2,600 DPS in Neo, which is absurdly low yet they have little incentive to improve if it gets them a clear. "Just grit and bear it" breeds a complacent mentality and, in my opinion, is why so many players aren't particularly good at the game.
Why is what a bad thing? Kicking a player for not DPSing on par with the rest of the group, even though their personal DPS is sufficient to make the DPS checks? Why WOULD you kick them? Their DPS is clearly not the issue that is causing the enrage to happen. If it is then they clearly aren't meeting the personal DPS requirement and the point is moot, and he'll need to improve or be replaced. Also, the comment about brute forcing was in regards to them kicking that 20% less DPS player in favor of a DPS that will push higher numbers, even though the original player was doing their fair share of the DPS in order to meet the DPS check.
