I was in a party with another player and he kicked me, because he wanted a free slot for his guild member.
Why didn't he go solo and invite him into his new party? Why he had to kick an existing party member? He didn't answer that question... He kicked other player before too, because that player forgot to take a crystal
I wanted full JK run and he kicked me in the elevator. I was in that party since depth 8...

Do you think that it is moral?

Maybe it wasn't nice, but he can do that if he wants to because he's party leader. But is it really such a big deal? Also, you're not really supposed to post people's names on the forums.

It is, because I really wanted to stay in that party and I nearly cried after the kick.

Okay.
That worries me.
Take a few steps back, breathe, go do something else for a while.

I cried when my dog got run over by a car. That's a reason to cry.
If you find yourself wanting to cry because of some slight thing that some nearly anonymous person does in a silly little game, you should take a good hard look at your life.

Does it suck? Sure. Does it matter? No. /ignore that guy and don't play with him any more.

Seriously?

Yes I don't agree with kicking a player out just because of another guild member, but the way you're reacting is quite immature. Just get over it and find another party to be with. Better yet, you can man up and go solo. If you win alone, it's good on you.

Come on man.

I can understand why you'd feel just a little upset about it but
almost crying about it and posting on the forums?
If you want to do a full Jk run then state that at the beginning.
I'm sorry for what happened but posting on the forums isn't
going to help at all.

I don't think it is moral to kick someone who has been in your party and contributing throughout in favour of even a guild member. I wouldn't have done it and if my guild member really wanted to join I would have gone solo and invited him then. It is another matter entirely if there is a person in my party who is not working out well though. i.e. Not working with the rest of the team, using bad language, constantly getting killed.

It's a freaking game that can make your eye sight go bad.games are just a game.they will not affect your real life.you probally get pissed off at losing.but you can always retry the boss run or what ever.When I was doing JK run,I got angry because I have no mist left for JK.but I remembered that theres always a tomorrow.I I went outside and played basketball.I bet some of you guys plays 24/7 every time.go get a outside life.

Some people here seriously

Some people here seriously need to learn to be more sensitive. Isn't calling people no-life crybabies against CoC or something?

In answer to the question itself, I believe kicking you solely to bring in his guildmate (and not due to any fault on your own part) is a dirty move on the leader's part. However, communication is essential to the success of any group, and this goes triply for groups on video games such as SK (as well as WoW, CoD, etc) who are somehow content with going through an entire run without saying a single word. Most likely, they see the group as purely a means to an end and talking simply takes too much time.

I'll grant, it's particularly difficult to get words out in this game since you can't do anything else while typing at the same time (not even move!), and I think that's something that needs correction.

Anyway, Prdeldebil. I think that the fault is on both ends. It might pay to state your intentions to the group before you take that first elevator down that you intend to go all the way to JK. At the very least, this makes it clear to everyone else what you want out of this run is most certainly not to get drop-kicked half-way through the run. Furthermore, if the group leader assures you that the whole group will go all the way to JK and then kicks you without explanation, I reckon there's a good chance that a game master will act on the leader's actions appropriately.
The alternative is just to make your own group. As I mentioned earlier, contact with each other during runs is at a minimum anyway, so being leader is a lot less effort than you'd think.

Well, it's better to get kicked out of a party at the start rather than at the end. (lose your heat if you get kicked or go solo). happened to me once, end of D16 in jelly level, got hell of a lota heat, and then got kicked cause a guy's friend wanted to do JK. bye bye Heat :( it is very unfair but, its not the end of the world.

Be fair. play nice. kill'em all. :P

P.S. Hey. wassup ninja :D

Hi people! I wish you (the general public) would be nice to Prdeldebil. He's a person with sentiments, a life, and history much like yourself. What can possibly be gained from making fun of him? The posts in his other topic were deplorable enough, so please don't go away from this one retaining the erroneous notion that it's fine to put people down over the internet. Make this community an amicable and inclusive place if that's okay!

It all depends, if i didnn't

It all depends, if i didnn't have any heat at the moment you kick me, sure, you can kick me, i won't feel bad about it. But i've met one guy who did something seriously ugly. We did the whole level, i step on the elevator and then this guy kicks me from the party taking all my heat, and iirc i paid for the danger room that we did back then. I opened the danger room back then for the heat, it made me feel really bad, hope that guy is banned or something. There was another time when i was kicked unreasonably - i'm on the loading screen, the game finishes loading and what? I'm on 3rd subarena of arena swarmed by Mechaknights/Retrodes from last wave and my game froze for 2 seconds too then, barely survived that, couldn't get the kicker's nickname as i didn't see [name] picked up something. Would love to see addition to the game where'd see who kicks us when we are on the loading screen, we could at least complain at that time.

I don't think he gets your heat if he kicks you.
But yeah, people kick for stupid reasons.
I prefer to just play with my group.

Too bad you can't make partial groups in Blast Network. Often I can pull two or three players together, but we've got to go random teams or free for all because we can't get a fourth.
