you always might end up being kicked for :

- Just before last boss in dungeon / fractal, so they can invite friend from guild instead.
- to sell dungeon to random players on lfg.
- as a joke, right before last boss dies, or is already dead. so you cant pick up your chest with rewards in fractals.
- When you posted on lfg that you need help with last part of the dungeon. They can always join and kick you.
- When you want to sell dungeon. np,. they can always join and kick you instead.

I cant wait to see some replies full of hate towards me. Afterall those reasons doesnt seems to be really important, they only give free gold and in game progress.

there is usually a reason why someone is kicked from a party ?

Ofc there is, here we go:

- Just before last boss in dungeon / fractal, lets invite friends from our guild.
- lets log in with our other account and claim gold for ourselves if last boss is easy duo-able.
- lets sell dungeon to random players on lfg.
- lets kick someone for fun as a joke, if he isnt from popular guild or have tons of achievement points, it doesnt matter. its not like we will ever need him.
- Lets join almost finished dungeon on LFG, since we are lucky enough to find someone who needs help, and lets kick him ! so that we can invite our own friends.

The best part of all this, is that NO ONE WILL EVE KNOW. There is no world chat, so other guy cant complain about it to preatty much anyone. He will tell in his guild ? lol who cares, there is like godzilla amount of guilds left to scam.

You disagree with me only to fulfill your need for attention. You wouldnt get much of it if you would agree, so only way to get some is to throw some argument which only shows that you didnt read any of my posts in this topic, and btw, this topic is really short so i dont know how you managed to do this. I guess that You didnt even read my whole post, since you failed to noticed that i pointed out that :

-I am geared properly for my class and curent meta, full zerk thief, scholar runes on armor, 2x dagger + bow.

-I never joined group which was searching for anything that im not. for example -> ele, war,guard, 5k+ap, pink, i dint even join groups with “rush” in title, cuz i figured that they rather expect someone with 12-20 k ap full pink.

-I have did all paths in all dungeons, but i was doing daily only those which know very well, i wasnt farming basic gears in those dungeons, i was doing them only to get gold. Besides that i do have 4 pink zerker items, so that makes me rather over average 2800 ap guy.

-I dont die in those dungeons during bosses, usually i am the one saving others. Im not total newb, i read some guides and stuff for current dungeon meta for thiefs. During my runs i find others to be rather nooby and unfamiliar with tactics. I dont mind much tho, if group is terribad im just leaving myself. The fact that you are kicking people makes you deserve no sympathy nor respect.

-Im never afk in dungeon, not even for a moment, i know that some people are dealing with theirs real life kitten during runs. Im not one of them. I did pointed out in this topic that dungeons requires one to be super focused to do not make any mistakes at all. I figured that whilst saying this its kind of obvious that i act this way.

-I also poitned out that i do not say anything in those dungeons, btw no one really does. Gw2 seems to be the most unsocial mmo that i encountered during last 8 years, but thats different issue.

I dont know why did you came up with conclusion that i am probably flaming, being afk and playing terrible. But then you are that guy who will dissagre for no reason at all. Here goes your attention, you earned it.

I also pointed out that i was kicked for no reason, in one of those random situations, when kicking someone is a good joke. Why not kick player who doesnt have popular guild or alot of AP. No one will even notice. Its not like i will shout on wolrd chat that he is a scrub and others should block him. We dont have world chat so i cant preatty much do anything after being kicked, except swallow the bitter taste of it.

I see some sugar posts here. Probably from old players who has tons of AP, new players however should be aware of what they are jumping into.

I got kicked again just now. So i will share some further thoughts about this issue.

I think during last week, i was kicked like 4-5 times, and i was doing only 5-10 paths daily. I never joined group which would require something im not, and i never wrote preatty much anything during whole runs. Whole this time i was full zerk geared already, and i know all tactics for the dungeons that i was doing.

Still i was getting kicked nearly in the end of dungeon or during the very last bosses for no reason at all. As a very casual player, with very casual guild, i find public lfb system to be not viable feature of this game because of vote kick.

As a player who knows all the tactics for runs that im doing, and as someone who is geared properly for my role and current meta, i would preffer to build my own groups with granted immunity to being kicked by pugs. Leader kick is in every mmo out there, i dont see any reasonable reason why we dont have it here.

I was moving this topic around lately, and i didnt hear single positive opinion about vote kick. Since in gw2 we dont even have world chat, we cant alert others about someone being abusive. We dont even know really who was the one that kicked us. This whole system is a mess.

Vote kick ruins gaming experience for casual players. Maybe some of you who have tons of achievement points feel safe and respected during the runs. It doesnt apply however to others. LFG is supposed to be our substitude from having active guild, yet it fails to do so with vote kick around.

If as a new player, i cant enjoy stress free pve in this game, then i will move my money and time elsewhere. Im not yet invested in this game, i didnt spend thousands of hours here. i have roughly 2800 ap and one character at lvl 80, so i dont really feel bad about leaving. There is so many games out there, that i dont have to stick to the one with bad game model.

I would like to point out here fact that over 8 years that i been playing mmos I never saw any conversation about “leader kick” being bad feature of the game.

In here we have vote-kick, and hate towards it is all around the place.

ps. Last night i was kicked from fractal dungeon, right after we killed last boss, one guy decided that it will be fun to dont let me get my rewards. Which was random kick, cause 10 sec earlier he was trying to vote kick other guy. I didnt write single word in that dungeon(no one did) and we didnt wipe single time.

So yea. Vote-kick is bad feature which is being abused all the time all over the place. Preatty much the only solution i hear from players is that i am supposed to do dungeons with people that i know or guild mates. Which by the way sounds exactly like definition of avoiding BAD feature of the game. Since i am not supposed to do random groups, cause i might get abused by vote kick by no reason, then whole LFG is actually not viable for solitary players ?

Vote kick is toxic feature for solo players. Gaming experience becomes stressful and requires you to hyper focus on not doing any mistakes during runs, which doesnt save you from random kick anyway.

bottom line is that vote kick is bad feature and “avoiding it” isnt a solution or reasonable argument to defend bad game model.

any team, can kick you at any point of the dungeon → even after just killing last boss, for no reason at all.

apparently pve in this game is just as strict and stressful as League of Legends, you are supposed to not write anything at all in chat, to dont offend anyone by any chance, and you have to hyper focus to do not make any mistake at all.

so my conclusion about vote kick system sums up in this equasion :

pve gw2 = competetive pvp games.

LOL what ? yea. someone in arena net should say no to stupid ideas.
