What’s this idea that whoever starts the instance/party somehow is more important, all knowing, gets choice of life and death (okey exaggerating a bit but the underling point stands) ?
Your party members are your companions, your team etc.. they’re not your employees or your personal soldiers. (talking in general not to anybody specific).
When someone Joins your team, you’re not doing them a favor by allowing them to tag along… if anything they’re doing you a favor by helping you out with whatever your doing.
This talk of I should dictate who joins or not, or I should be able to kick people off the team but they cannot do the same to me and stuff is frankly exactly what thank gods of game design Arenanet made sure to avoid.
As for OP I dont know what happened but I have a feeling those 3 additions were not friends… if 3 friends want to do dungeons they’d start their own party most likely and the chances that they all join the same group at the same time is kinda difficult.
As for why they all agreed to kick you off the team is probably because you made them feel like you were going to kick them off the team for not fitting your criteria and they did it preemptively themselves. You probably made them feel insecure when you asked them to change to heavies one of them start the kick, the other two figured it may be unfair but if they dont agree probably it will be them off the team hence they agreed.
He got kicked from his own half finished instance. he’s the victim, not those 3 stealing instance rats.
This is why current system is terrible. You start an instance, you look for a party on lfg, you get kicked. This is madness, a crime to logic and rational thinking.
The world is not black and white.
Sure he its not fair that he got kicked out of his own instance. 100% agreed.
Would it be fair if he kicked those 3 off for the simple reason they didnt play the classes he approved off? dont think that would be fair either.
Do I believe it was fair for them to kick him out if he was going to kick them off himself? no, they should have at least discussed it first. Thats exactly the thing here. No one should act like they own a party because no one owns a party. A team has to work together and there shouldnt be any demands of any kind.
The system is designed to support exactly that. There is no madness or crime to logic here. The party starting the group was likely perceived as trying to abuse his standing by demanding changes of them and the party protected themselves by kicking him out. I still dont think OP deserved to be kicked out, especially after doing so much work already but I do think he shouldnt have demanded that everyone should bring a heavy.
Actually he did half the path on his own. If those 3 didnt want to at least try to appeal to his request, he should be able to deal with them OR AT LEAST BE IMMUNE TO THEIR KICK FROM HIS OWN INSTANCE.
Why? strictly speaking he needed “them” more then they needed him. its “them” cause naturally it could have been any other 3 people.
Its like your car breaks down and you need a lift to somewhere but when someone offers to take you, you tell them to get a different type of car. (not a perfect analogy since naturally those 3 benefited from helping him more then someone giving you a lift would benefit) but still they’re helping him out and without help he is likely stuck. Why should he be entitled to any special treatment? (demanding stuff / Untouchable)
Gw2 is a game designed to be as inclusive as possible, people just shouldnt force other players to focus on 2 professions and ignore the other 6 or they just cant join the fans. That is just wrong. Now most of the times they get their way. Sometimes they dont. This was one case where they didnt.
Now maybe its not the case, maybe OP never intended to kick anyone even if they refused to change and if thats the case then this is really sad, but if he did intend to kick anyone refusing to comply then this is more like poetic justice.
