Uh...

Maybe the reason this doesn't exist is because they actually don't want you to be cussing at players...

But heck, if you can turn off filters and allow cussing, I don't really see a reason not to have a message like this and let all he...ck break loose between players.

I guess I'm kind of ambivalent, so +0.5 to this.

This would be nice. Although I've never been kicked before, it would be good if ever did.

Not sure if want

If they implemented this it would be situationally beneficial for users.

When I do any run as the party leader I always kick out leeches, beggars, and the sort; they do not deserve to be in a party with anyone. With leeches I may attempt to find out if they have an elevator pass; if not, I wait until we are about to clear the floor of heat and kick them, making them all the heat they never deserved. This only applies to the previous describable players, not to anyone I see running around. I then record their name in a file and block them so I know to bump them if we meet again because I only give one second chance. Their first chance was during the run, the second chance was when they decided to hide behind everyone else in the corner and only come out when everything was cleared; after that they enter the box. The metaphorical box. I have not cleaned it recently.

Where was I going with this?

I know I will be kicked out of many parties for posting this, because the "Me Generation" fodder want everything to go their way, but be realistic; do you want to be stuck with people who want you to do everything so they can hide in the corner? If you want that, you can be the one carrying everyone else. I will be in my own run pretending I am a bird.

We can convert players into heat? Show me your ways...

"making them all the heat they never deserved"

I swear, I don't know what it is, but I feel the need to point out mistakes made specifically by you. It's probably because your posts are usually almost entirely correct except for one tiny thing. If you wrote poorly, I wouldn't bother.

Agreed. It would be a nice and simple feature. It isn't like most situations wont allow you to eventually figure out who kicked you from left over material loots in the chat log.

You can certainly figure out who was in the party, but you might not be able to discern exactly who kicked you. You can yell at each of the other members, but only one would be the actual leader/kicker. The proposed feature would eliminate the need for that guess-and-check method, as the OP implied.

I'm not trying to talk you down or anything, just highlighting one of the benefits of the suggestion and giving it some more context.

Guess I've been lucky in my groups and have never been in a situation where it wasn't easy to tell who the party leader was. Either way, I still think it's a good idea.

Yes, very rare they say a word before they kick me without a reason from party while im loading ( so hard to wait 30 seconds or lock party if they dont want anyone to join) so i can capslock them to death (but i dont know who is the actual party leader.

With that i can target right person.
