Serious Issue
You kicked the instance owner out of the group, regardless if he was offline or not, you did this to yourself.
I had the instance owner go offline yesterday. You know what we did. We just continued on as we all knew that kicking him would mean us getting kicked. On top of that he was the guardian and we were on cliffside. It felt indefinitely more gratifying to finish that run than it did others. It took an freaking hour longer. A freaking hour. It was still more gratifying.
I can’t believe this hasn’t been fixed yet. HELLO ANET, anyone there.

For one thing, I wasn’t the one who kicked him. And second, we only realized he was the party leader when we all found ourselves back in Lion’s Arch. Thirdly, why should the person who started the instance get ‘extra protection’? And finally, he was OFFLINE FOR 30 MINUTES!

This issue has been discussed at least weekly on these forums since the game launched, as has the “only 2 players required to kick” problem.
I think it’s here to stay.
We need to have selectable difficulty levels for Hero Point Challenges
I agree that it is an issue. I’ve seen people trying to start the run because they know they can’t be kicked then. And I’ve also seen people directly ask the party leader to leave before they entered because they wanted someone else to lead. It is simply awful the way it is at the moment.
