its almost better to have 5 accounts and solo run everything u need by yourself even though it takes a lil longer. 15-20 keys i just run with a few guildies.
It’s been a toxic system since it’s birth. This is why I keep saying this “Social Contract” and “Code of Conduct” means absolutely nothing. Nothing is ever going to change. So, I’m careful to not do LFD too much. Unless it’s with my husband/friends, I’ll do it more. But solo? Sparingly.
Slippery slope because apparently everyone has their own threshold of what is inappropriate or upsetting. There’s no real standard and that has been the societal norm for so long. There’s no more consensus of reasonable offensiveness. Now, if you offend anyone at all for any reason you can be punished. Even if a reasonable person or masses would not be offended. This is what’s being pushed on society and people are lapping it up, mostly in the name of social justice and safe spaces.
I’m not the person suggesting that the first part of the contract is a “suggestion”. At any point Blizzard can invoke that portion of the contract as everyone who is playing agreed to abide by it. This means if the poster wanted to report the people who kicked them he can and he could point to that first clause within the social contract.
Blizz doesn’t control queue times.
I had a leveling group try to vote kick me once. Was on my pally tank and running a buddy through some runs. So basically pull everything to the boss and burn it down. He told me they just started a vote to kick you with the reason ‘too fast’.
No it isn’t?
Heck, they could say you griefed 4 other people by initiating combat while the tank is still gathering the mobs, and then trying to off-shoot blame onto the hunter when you wiped.
Do I think you were in the wrong? No. Do I think they were in the wrong? No. But it’s definitely not griefing to kick you.
There is no “big brand new conduct agreement” - it’s literally the same code of conduct we all agreed to when we signed up for an account, just summarized.
Which, again - they could argue you did that by causing a wipe by engaging before the tank had gathered things. A melee out kicking casters, tricks or not, is more likely to aggro extra things than if the mob is left to cast on its own.
As stated above - You mean like accusing the hunter of not doing the wrong thing that you were doing? That’s abusive to the hunter in that case.
When you remember you actually tricks the healer and caused the wipe. 
Ppl have been doing those meanie moves since it was implemented.
When you see ppl of the same guild/realm I’m leery bc they sometimes can/will gang up on you.
A random dungeon, oh my. So ez. I’m sorry lame ppl kicked you in such trivial content. I do not think this particular situation has to do with the Social contract. Ppl are just jerks.
Next time put them on ignore so you do not have to regroup with them potentially.
Maybe they did try their best but…still just had to boot.
Blizzard allows us to select who we want to group with, and to manage our groups ourselves. We can kick for any reason, or no reason. That is not against the rules. Yes, it is not exactly nice, but it is not against any rules.
IF Blizz ever has an issue with it, they will change the kick mechanics, not punish people for using them.
What we can’t do, is use a string of profanity, slurs, insults, etc when kicking.
What does being vote kicked, which has been around for years, have to do with the slightly modified code of conduct?
The answer is nothing.

That story is confusing were you the rogue or the hunter? Nvm, ok i see.
Yeah… That’s not how that works. But you are welcome to believe that if you wish. And for the record. Blizzard does not need a reason to suspend, or delete you’re account.

And you can argue that water isn’t wet, that doesn’t change the fact you would still be wrong.
Unless they used abusive or offensive language towards you, there is no cause for reporting in this instance.
Were they a bad group, sure. It happens. Be glad you didn’t have to deal with them any longer, put the lot of them on Ignore and just keep playing.
PS: if your question relates to lodging a report on a player because you believe they broke any part of Blizzard’s rules (beit the CoC or the Terms or whatever) then no, there is no specific option in the Click-and-Report system for that. In fact, they appear to have recently changed it to alter or reduce the types of action.
Oof, looks like Asmongold caught a 24 hour automated ban on his smaller/baby “Zack” channel. Some random troll was typing naughty words in the chat and apparently that’s all it took 
While not directly related to WoW, it’s yet another example that false reports/automated bans are widespread. Obviously someone like Asmongold has the resources or “influence” that you would think he would be immune to this kind of troll-y false reporting stuff, but nonetheless the ban was apparently “upheld” by twitch
Apparently the false/automated ban spooked him enough that he’s going to leave his chat box “off” going forward, according to the Youtube “response” video anyways

So his channel was not set up to moderate or prevent that? He knows better. He is not some new streamer.
He knows the rules and had nothing in place to prevent that? I just… wow. Even tiny streamers usually have a basic bot set up and a mod or two handy.
I’m not sure you took the time to look into what happened, and it shows. You should try giving the benefit of the doubt to cases you haven’t personally looked into, rather than starting from a foundation of presumed guilt.
As a society we are beginning to learn that "presumed guilt’ is a very dangerous precedent that weaponizes stereotypes and stigmas under the logic of causality while also denying people the ability to reform their behaviors and actions.
