while generally I don't think you should be able to kick the leader, a few instances recently have made me really want this feature.
In order of annoyance to me and the reason I want this ability:
1) A bug where the leader never actually joined the group after the elevator. The party icons showed 4 players, but the leader was not on the mini-map and we couldn't find him in the level. The three of us proceeded without the leader until we hit a party button. From that point on we were stuck so we all had to somehow regroup or quit. Either way, we are losing heat and/or wasting energy.
2) leader disconnects or walks away from keyboard. We have to wait a long time for the game to take this over. Really annoying but at least we can continue.
3) leader is being a . Everyone either has to quite and find a new group, or put up with his crap.
So, what I propose is a way to kick the leader, most likely through unanimous vote.
Yes. Please. Please. Please.
So many times either the leader has gone afk for some reason, or hi internet cut out, and I am in the midle of a jelly king run, so I really don't want to quit. A vote to kick the leader would be awesome.
