If theres one thing that gets to me in guild wars its when someone joins the party, you zone in and they afk meaning you do all the hard work but they finish the mission and/or the bonus!!
Its silly and should not be allowed to go on!
so a simple kick feature fot the party leader would get rid of this, maybe the feature should only be used is someone hasnt moved in a certin time period then a kick button would apear nesxt to their name or just the kick button is avaible to the party leader 24/7 to also help with party members who dont want to work as a team

Thats a good idea !
Its bad to be kicked when you swich town...

I'll start parties and kick everyone when we get to the end so only I get the reward and they have to completely start over.

^^ Evil.

But as long as there's some sort of catch, it'd kidna work. More of a "wouldn't it be nice" kind of idea, as I see it.

Maybe some kind of voting mechanic, where you need a quorum to boot troublesome members (but those channelling Caligula won't have free reign).

I think the only person that should be able to decide if a player leaves is the player themselves. If you don't like someone in the group, you can all leave and start over without him, but being able to kick someone, that shouldn't be allowed, and what do you know, it's not. If you don't like something you can leave, and if they really are that horrible, then you'll probably end up dying soon and kicking the person anyway, so I don't see that as a big deal. I'm tired of hearing this complaint.

i hear the argument and hate afkers, but this system would be far too open to abuse

All Chat: Player New001, are you here?
Team: Player New001, are you playing this mission?
All Chat: Player New001, are you afk???
Press Printscreen. Send the screenshot to Anet's report players unsporrtsmanly conduct department (NCsoft, submit a question). Include the time, mission and name of the offending player in your email. They'll check the server logs and take action. While they don't email you with "Yeah, we banned that noob", they do take action.

Instead of getting kicked from one mission, afks can be kicked for weeks or months. Habitual jerks can find themselves perma-banned.

/notsigned because there's a better way.

Kicking a party member while zoned would be great time saver for droks runners but it would also give scammers a bigger chance to scam,i vote yes for this anyway.

Many online games have this feature. It takes is a majority vote to have someone removed. You'd need 4 members to vote to have someone kicked, hardly open to abuse.

Especially when the kicked player gets all assigned drops with him. No problem at all. It only sux when one gets kicked a sec before the end of a mission

it should kick them to a new instance exactly where they were standing with a hench team, so even if they are kicked for no reason, they can still complete the mission.

I was trying to say that there should be a vote system or someway of kicking people who afk for over 5mins or something along those lines

I understand that. I'd rather get them banned or suspended
