To be fair theres nothing to do pre-70 except dungeon queues.

They could start leveling their forum character.

Think thats what they were doing. Level up those forum posts.

The last thread we saw, it was the tank claiming groups were bullying tanks.

Unfortunately for them. They streamed the whole incident. Come to find out, the group was full of absolute saints quite literally carrying the tank.

Bad pull after bad pull, they just tolerated it until the tank over pulled. Didnt aoe once or try to get threat. Let people die. Then blamed the healer lol.

It was a dk tank that spammed heart strike with no dnd. Didnt hit cds. They have an agil 1 hander. Leather boots. Some int pieces.
It was a travesty.

But yea. I never buy the "i did nothing wrong ", “i was kicked for no reason” bit.

99% of the time, they are lying (or completely have no self awareness) lol. And it usually comes out throughout the thread.

It was art.

Also, here someone was both kicked and willingly left the group so this thread we went for the lying option

You have too much time on your hands… Seriously, why dig after such pointless information?

Truth is, the kick vote system is abused every day and Blizzard does not provide the tools to punish the abusers correctly.

This needs a change.

It is not.

The only change needed is making the penalties on spamming longer. We’ve got enough threads on people lying about vote kick already

I’ve suspected it’s a lot of sock puppeting, but with no proof I just haven’t said anything. Glad I’m not the only one with a brow raised about it.

It’s not like normal ‘high traffic’ topics, it’s like copy/pasted slop. Sometimes I assume stuff like this was just something an influencer said.

Not for describing the dungeon deserter debuff.

I was waiting for a healer that had to release after dying cause the druid and two priests didnt bother to rez them, they continued to the boss room, me and the healer are stuck outside. They kick me and I get the deserter debuff. I am pretty pissed, I took a break from writing to do a dungeon and now that is ruined. The deserter debuff ought not apply to kicks.

94

There will always be a rogue (adjective) fool somewhere out there, but there were issues when they didn’t apply deserter to kicks. Namely, trolling the group to requeue faster after getting a disliked dungeon. It was worse without this feature.

95

I think it is better to err the other way. People will kick noobs for low damage or not knowing the path. If you are in the dungeon and were kicked, not abandoned, I’d rather have a bad actor get no debuff than a good actor get a debuff.

96

Were you there? No, you weren’t.

This is the same guy who thinks that everyone plays by the rules and anyone that doesn’t is a liar.

97

Removing from a group isn’t reportable, hence why you can’t report for it in the categories.

98

It actually is

My man doing the real work for us.

Did you consider reading what you link? He explicitly says it doesn’t violate any policy to vote kick.

101

I assume that’s what 90% of the complaints on the forums are from.
