Vote Kick is abused daily

[Metalwrath]

Seriously, you might as well just remove it. People rarely get kicked for legitimate reasons. 9 times out of 10 it's because someone said something someone else simply disagrees with and the other two just don't care enough to not hit yes.

Actually check the reports and you'd see the system doesn't work as intended.

Only reason ive seen someone get kicked is for going offline or people who fake dc(usually mentors who dont want to do that dungeon)
If you're getting kicked a lot then you're probably being quit offensive to your team mates.

I got kicked yesterday when someone dced said something about not able to pull my weight ! I should of reported it!! But I didn't really care! I figured the group was squishy anyways !! When they said I was lazy!!

if a run is that bad, people can abandon it or tough it out. people aren't mature enough for this power, and it is abused for the wrong reasons 9/10 times

Since I have played, I have ever only vote kicked 2 people, and that was because they went AFK/LD and they didn't come back after about 5 minutes. But I've not seen anyone be vote kicked or been a part of one for any other reason.

i become my "best" kick from 3 french players. they decided that they dont want to play the dungeon and wait 5 minutes to kick me. i told them that i report this cuz they waste time of other players. the short answer was: do it we dont care cuz we pop up directly into the next roulette. i was a dps btw.

special thanks to this 3 frogs for beeing the biggest trash if ever saw in this game o/

It's the nature of the beast. This has very rarely happened to me in MMO's, but it does happen when being the minority. I do not believe this means the system is broken. If you're finding yourself being kicked often, I would re-evaluate the way you talk with your party or how you're playing your class before blaming the vote kick. Just my two gil.

I've never seen it happen but I'm not going to say it doesn't happen. I've seen how people react ingame when a question is asked in dungeons and it can go from helpful, to silence, to rage instantly. I've seen all those kinds of replies in various difference dungeons. Yeah 9 times out of 10 does seem like ALOT, but who knows. He very well might have the shittyist luck ever. Wouldn't be the first time I've sen insane crap happen to someone that was unbelieveable.

I have very rarely seen this abused. If someone is kicked it is mostly because they deserve it because of afk or the group keeps wiping and a tank cant hold threat, a healer cant keep the tank healed or a dps is constantly pulling mobs ahead of a tank and doesnt stop.

I have been kicked for good reasons and a few that made me scratch my head. Good reasons are for being impaired and having threat, healing or a being dead too much problem.... or was afk for longer than planned because of said impairedness or RL responsibilities cropping up.

The few that confused me was once Tanking normal Gubal Library, the rest of the group kept wiping due to the book turn so with 30% left on the boss i just soloed it, then on the next trash pull i was a bit more confident than i should have and pulled too many mobs...after the wipe i was kicked. The other one, i was a dps in a stormblood dungeon, the run went really well, until we got to the last boss and got i booted with no warning, no reason i could see.

I can see how it may be abused and hopefully in those cases it is looked at and punished but those cases are very very rare, if you are getting booted constantly then there is probably something else going on you dont see or your on at a bad time that coincides with some trolls on a bad server. As for removing it....no that would allow even more abuse IMO
