Well it would be nice to be able to report people who stay afk through a whole mission or whatever - beacuse it can be VERY annoying, but sometimes (not always) something important might pop up, Or someone could be like me when i was in high school - and there parents could yell at them to 'get in here' or whatever - and you can't really help that. Or an important phone call could come up - so those people don't deserve to be banned, but someone who just dissapears, and doesnt say 'afk' or even tell you why and/or stays gone through the entire mission, but if Anet banned everyone that got a report sent on them for afking - some of those people who had an important reason would get banned to. It wouldn't be fair.

Thats kinda complicated, in deciding what some one's intentions were for being afk x.x

I like the "votekick" system myself. If it appears someones trying to leech a mission/bonus/whatever, rest of party can be rid of them. I believe that could very well stop leechers cold. I think you should pull your own weight, or get out.

Consider this my vote for a Kick feature! It would be one way to improve the overall PUG experience, and might even help to alleviate the negative image PUGing has recieved!

Further, such a feature adds a cetain level of consequence for negative behavior...if you want to leech, announce your intention! Otherwise you risk being banned!

Now what we really need is a way to bring in Heroes mid mission to make up for DCers, Ragers, and these theoretical kickers...
