    Sadly people actually do this. Back in Cata I guildkicked a group of people because I found out that they'd queue as 4, then kick the 5th/PuG just because the last boss 'for laughs'.

    It's a good thing you have brought this incredible flaw to our attention. I'm sure many of us have never experienced a handful of people out of millions beings tools.

    Why do I feel like this situation was actually OP being AFK and the other 2 people kicking him because they didn't want him getting rewards for doing nothing.
    Exactly. There's always someone that thinks their singular experience somehow represents the whole picture, and in a game with millions of people that just isn't the case.
    Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.

    Farming rares / invasions / portals is a quick enough way to fill the azerite bar you don't really lose anything by complying with the other 2 and just helping them farm it.

    The way you're describing it is as if it was tremendously slower to do it their way.

    Actually no "Blog post" threads are against the rule.
    However i wouldnt really call this a blog post, post, however one like "i just did this today" that is a blog post.

    I leveled from 110-120 with islands only on an alt and ran into this quite a few times.



    I can only speak to my personal experience, but they sure do.
    A bit offtopic but is leveling with islands any good?

    I insta-vote if me and one of the others are rolling around together killing rares and we realize the other person is missing. Click the map hotkey and the guy is on the other side of the isle by himself dying. They deserve to be booted, no matter what percent finished you are.

    Nice how you all by default think it's based on OPs behavior while in fact people are now kicking leveling toons just for shits and giggles.

    There's still a possibility that the instance crashed and everyone got kicked with the You have been removed from party message. Had it happen couple of times with guild party.

    There is no need to start whine threads with one kick as an example me thinks

    I got kicked from one yesterday while leveling my monk. Wasn't anything going on as far as I'm aware. I mass pulled stuff, but that wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Was two different servers with the other two people, so I can't say much about it.

    Griefing is an integral part of any good MMO, and I hope it comes back in Classic.

    Calm down, Becky Sue. It happened once. Go outside for 30 minutes, you sound like you need some Sun.

    In islands, no clue. Maybe there should be a change implemented that for example if you were present for more than 50% of the island, no deserter?
    Tbh I wouldn't have put deserter on anyone, as you can never guarantee that a person wasn't kicked because of malicous reasons. Being denied the rest of the run (and therefore the reward) should be enough.

    OP said it happened to him once.

    That is not a good sample size for data. You provide no other data. So it happened once to both of you, and all of a sudden "it's a fact, people are kicking leveling toons EN MASSE, IT'S PURE CHAOS"?

    Please kindly miss us with that b/s.

    IMO, I dont think you should get deserter if you get kicked.

    Please do the forums a favor and miss us with b/s overreacting answers.

    Is said it happened more than once and for others as well and I even gave possible solutions for this if it might be a problem within the system. But go ahead and puke on mucho style...

    Since when do you get deserter for being kicked?

    Enkrypt's point still stands, it happening infrequently to people doesn't mean it requires change. I've been on the receiving end of it as well during my time but you just report people and move on.

    Even the solutions you proposed in your own thread have problems (for instance kick protection towards the end just means once it hits you can troll the fuck out of people with no fear of being removed).

    It's good if you enjoy expeditions in general. I've accidentally leveled my lock to 120 recently just because I like how demo performs there, so was doing a few every evening. I actually wanted to level my monk alt first, but he's still stuck at 113 in Nazmir...

    Well, then I hope we'll never get grouped together. I like to stray away and scan the island for rares while the rest are doing their thing. Especially when the mogu wave or something comes, but the others keep doing meaningless stuff like chests or elites or azerite elemental or the opposite faction npcs.

    I enjoyed it versus doing the same horde zones again so soon. The XP is good, the islands are pretty fast, and the loot is what kept me going. I made about 500k in Plundered items + weapons alone. People aren't doing islands, so the transmog + pets are selling pretty damn well.

    Pretty sure that means he can discuss it being a blog post if he wants to

    Sounds like they are collecting Azerite so the team wins while you are wandering around mooching.
