Getting kicked from LFG dungeon for no good reason and a lack of ways to report this type of behavior/abuse of vote to kick-system

Almost done with leveling all characters to 80. I’m not a slacker in dungeons and I’m not a verbal abuser. Yet, just now something happened, which has happened a handful of times before.

We’re in shattered halls, rest of the group is melee, they are plowing through as they should and I’m doing what I can as a warlock (that lacks quick paced damage). As we’re approaching the final hall that leads to last boss I die. I didn’t release, since that requires me to run from the very beginning of the dungeon which would slow us down by probably 3-5 minutes. No resurrection, they keep moving and kick me out the group. No communication whatsoever.

In reality it’s not a big loss, it’s nothing in the big picture, I lose 10 minutes. But I don’t want to let them get away with it this time. Ingame I can’t find a proper channel to report this, so I’m here for guidance. Where/how do I report this group or at least the one that started the vote?

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.

Proposals so far include but not limited to:

  • “Just remove it” The darkest times will come back again
  • “Reduced cooldowns stacking upwards” so that if you aren’t kicked often, it starts with a minor debuff.
  • “Reduced cooldowns, stacking downwards” so if you’re in a “good” party, then when they surprisepikachu kick you at the end the cooldown is lower.
  • “Warning before Debuff” - When you get removed from dungeon you get a Warning but allows you to requeue, if you get kicked again you get debuffed on subsequent leaves.
  • “Add reporting for kicking” - This is akin FF where they investigate if someone is really, really using votekick so often and gets reported for it that often as well. WoW used to do this.

If you have a proper suggestion, you may submit it through the ingame feedback box. I also would like to know to see if the suggestion can be improved making it into a better experience for everyone involved.
