Dungeon kicks and bans

Groups are empowered to manage their own members through the vote-kick system. If the majority of the group feels a player should be removed, they can initiate a vote-kick to remove them. The system is entirely under the control of our players. Players may choose to remove any other player from the group for any reason, provided the vote to kick passes.

Customer Support does not provide loot, gold, or quest/achievement progress not gained as a result of being kicked from a group.

If you have any feedback about the group management system and how you think it can be improved, please submit a suggestion in-game:

  1. Press the Esc key to open the Game Menu, and click Support.
  2. Click Submit feedback or bug report.
  3. Click Submit a suggestion.
  4. Follow the guidelines on the submission form, and enter your suggestion.
  5. Click Submit.

Note: Groups formed outside of the queue system (Guild Runs, Mythic +, etc.) will not utilize the vote-kick system. Instead those groups will have one party leader that controls who gets invited or removed.

As you can see, Blizz washed their hands of the Vote kick system.

So… the vote to kick is in the hands of trolls.

Yep, which is why I only play with friends and my guild.

“Trolls” that can convince 3/5 group members to agree to kick someone…or 4/5 in pre-made groups.

You just gotta accept that when it happens, a majority of the group just doesn’t want to play with you for whatever reason.

I wish getting kicked didnt put every q option on cd

I got booted tanking an undead strath tw lfd because i gigga pulled as is tradition and no one stunned banshees so the silences essentially killed us

I got ze boot, which frankly is dumb, but oh well. But then i couldnt q any other lfd.

Was stupid so i just logged instead. Enjoy the q’s dps rofl

Ppl aren’t being randomly kicked from dungeons. You might not agree with why they did it, but almost no one is doing it just to grief.

Been playing since 2005 and this stuff literally never happens to me or anyone else in my dungeons unless it’s called for. 99.9999% of these posts have one-sided stories i swear lol!

This is the part that needs re-worked. Votekick is fine. Being able to ban other players from queued content for 30 minutes just to get my jollies isn’t fine.

Yes, I guess you caught them. There are so many people roaming the dungeon finder landscape, possibly thousands, and their only goal is to instantly kick A random stranger for no reason.

Exactly. Vote kicks happen very rarely. The people making these threads constantly have to be doing or saying something that’s getting them kicked, but they want to pretend like it’s just random out of nowhere.

I think the main reason ppl vote to kick is because strangers are slowing down their crazy easy content. I don’t think it’s a good reason, though.

Well that’s why the system is so great, the group takes a vote and if the majority agree that it is a good enough reason, it passes, and if they don’t agree, it doesn’t pass.

I straight up uninstalled Cata because of the vote kicking, it was insane over there. I was getting vote kicked every single time I tried to do Heroics on my R Druid. It got to the point where I had full Heroic dungeon gear and had cleared all of the dungeons multiple times (I still remembered them from Cata anyway) and would still get kicked.

Basically if you weren’t healing through all their mistakes, the group was kicking you. I had this tank who couldn’t get past the very first trash pull in Halls of Origination, he couldn’t hold aggro or survive, the DPS was literally dying to auto attacks. They kicked me lmao. Tank was dying through all of my hots, tree form, trinkets and spamming Healing Touch.

No chance at all that any of it was on you? 100% of it on everyone else?

Did you read it? How can I prevent the DPS from being auto attacked? That is literally 100% on the tank. I comb over the log after all of those, that was like the 10th time I had been vote kicked in Cata Classic, it’s not like it was a new thing.

Every single group that kicks me can’t be my fault bro, it just doesn’t work like that, especially when I’m VASTLY over geared for the dungeons. I was in emblem and heroic loot, I was just doing them for emblems.

Though it seems like every single one can be not your fault

I dunno, maybe one out of the bunch was my fault, but after I was completely geared out, nah.

Why would I uninstall the game because I suck at it lmao. I’ve been playing WoW for 25 years lmaoooooo. You are reaching crazy hard to gas light, which is expected. We don’t all have footage of every single dungeon we ever did.

You wasn’t there

It’s very, VERY easy to convince 3/5 people to hit yes for troll reasons, a friend of mine has done it a million times. Even just putting a goofy joke as the reason will work most of the time.

The same people come to every single one of these threads and troll. You are in the majority, don’t listen to them. There are dozens of these posts at this point and they keep coming and essentially saying the same garbage, that there currently isn’t a problem when we all know there is otherwise there would not be so many threads about it. Ignore them and keep posting. Blizzard can and will listen eventually. Vote kicks are not the problem. Dungeon Deserter is. It’s too heavy handed of a penalty when you can be kicked for any reason, even unjust ones.
