vote kicks - Blue Tracker

This is just a general opinion of the vote kick system. I think it should be removed, or be more unanimous, as it is heavily abused. I see players kicked all the time for simply being sub-80, and I myself am tired of being vote kicked for no apparent reason. I think it detracts from the game in a significant way, and I think it is a convention that should not be upheld, along with many others that were rewritten in guild wars 2; especially considering the ease with which parties may be formed for dungeons. The lack of a vote kick system in Guild Wars 1 was phenomenal. Please remove or modify this system in a way that it does not have such a negative impact on ordinary ‘pick up group’ experiences. Thank you.

Woljnir.7810:
Vote kick must exist. Too many people would abuse it by going afk or otherwise being a jerk on purpose. What they need to do is make it majority and require 3 votes. Whoever decided it would only take two probably should have thought about it a little harder xD.

I’m curious if the others in this thread also agree that 3 votes would make the system equally effective (for yes, it seems vote kick must exist, as Woljnir says) but perhaps less arbitrary.

Or would 3 bring a whole new set of challenges?
