Honestly I would much rather chance getting stuck in a group of elitists who don't think I'm worthy than the many many times I've had someone d/c, intentional or not, or someone purposefully sit and wait till one of us takes the deserter hit because they're being a whiny brat.

I'm sure most DF parties are at least 2 random people and if you need 3 to kick then the chances are not likely. If all 4 are random then the chance becomes almost 0 unless they have a good reason. And with tells not allowed that means they have to talk about it out loud... To everyone.
