Got kicked from an instance for the first time ever today.

I get kicked pretty often for telling people how it is. Some people cant handle the truth honestly.

Well, telling it how it is may come over as being an incredible jerk.

GS was such a stupid and generally inaccurate addon, and the fact that an outside mod had such a big effect on raiding and it's requirements pissed me off enough already.

I found it funny that when GS was updated for Cataclysm so it took stats/gems/enchants etc. into account (and also when avg item level was introduced, which is even worse than original GS), it died out quicker than any addon I've known.

That's kind of horrifying, even for LFR.

Stick a pen between 1/2/Q so that 1 is pressed as your Smite button.... /loot

First time I got kicked so far was back in Cata when I was tanking a random heroic on my Druid after returning from hiatus. I just barely had the ilvl to queue for the Dragonsoul 5mans and didn't even do so, but of course when I went for a random heroic, I ended up in one of the DS ones with 3 people from the same guild who were quite annoying from the start (healer decided he needed the "Moon Guard" achievement without telling me, so I had to get through the trash with selfhealing). On the trash before last boss, the healer finally let me die (claiming I didn't let him drink up - he was at full mana and just watched), but apparently the kick timer wasn't ready yet so they procrastinated and demanded the Healer (Paladin) tanked the last boss and the Shadow Priest healed. Priest didn't heal, we wiped, and they finally could kick me then. Was so good to be back in the game

I got kicked constantly in Wrath while tanking. I had this weird hybrid tank spec on my Warrior with MS, and with 2pc/2pc heroic T10, it pulled crazy DPS. They'd kick me because "you're in DPS gear" which was only the 2pc DPS tier and a DPS 1 hander.

How often do you find yourself in situations where "telling it how it is" actually benefits a player, group, or general morale? Might be something to consider. You're in a group after all.

I think the funniest time I got kicked was during early Cata because I kept sapping, blinding, and generally stunlocking mobs & pats. Apparently AoE damage was more important to those guys.

I was once kicked back in WotLK just for "sucking". On my enhance shaman back then I didn't have the best gear so what better way to get than to run the dungeons right? Well I got to Pit of Saron and after just a few groups of mobs they were like "wow dude you suck, kick him" and I go "what why we're not even doing that bad so what's the point?" and they continued to just insult my performance so they just kicked me. They were just some elitist idiots who thought they were top shit. Other than that time, I don't really remember any other times that I was kicked from a group. If I was ever kicked from a group it was because the person or the group were a bunch of elitist asshole shit mongers.

Were you actually bragging about it or something? If you did I can see why they kicked you.

On a different note, we ran End Time once (that was the dungeon with big dragon, right?), and there were 4 of us from guild and 1 pugger. One of my friends (he is a troll, not ingame, but a troll) had an idea to kick the pugger. So we initated the vote to kick, but didn't press yes, pulled the boss and when boss was at 5%, we pressed yes and boom, he was gone.

I know, if I was him, I would report us and would be really mad, but it was really hilarious

Generally curious in a (hopefully) non offensive way here. I guess I'm missing something, where is the hilarity here?

I mean, I sort of imagine the 4 guild members as little kids hunched by a window giggling uncontrollably, high on candy, talking about throwing a water balloon full of paint at some passerby, but because they're sort of passive weirdos, they just peg someone's car instead.

So sure, someone's gunna be upset for work the next day when their car is painty, but other than a couple seconds of going "heh heh" there was really no motivation.

Like, the guy just wasted 20m queue followed by a 20m dungeon and now he gets to do it all over again because a few kids had a "heh heh."

Maybe it's a perspective thing.

Yeah, as I said, if I was him I would be really mad, but this was kind of funny....like we didn't even believe it would work, but we tried and it worked. We didn't laugh for the rest of the evening, but it gave us a decent laugh.

Yesterday I was booted from my flex 4 group on my ilvl550 rogue before garrosh because I was doing the least dps on klaxxi (no shit, the arms warr was using sweeping strikes and the ele was spamming CL) so the raid leader's ilvl575 friend could join for garrosh looms. And we were only 13 in the bloody raid! I guess I should've padded more. 200k dps is apparently not good enough for flex. :<

[Rykin]

In Wrath I was booted for being a DK. I wish I was joking.

Yup that's the only time I've been booted, people just hated dks for no reason.

If you're on the bottom, and you're with strangers, you should always pad your dps, or do whatever you can so you're not on the bottom.

Sad, but true.
