QOL suggeestion for Kick Player

Been seeing a lot of abuse with the vote to kick player lately. Having multi pop ups during trials between people just disrupts everyone elses play. I would like to suggest when a person starts a vote to kick if that vote fails the person who started is auto kicked. After all that person doesn't want to play with the other one, and the league doesn't have to deal with the fighting. Also with prompts to teleport being very common clicking yes before seeing it is a vote to kick has caused problems. The person being kicked and the person starting the vote should both be named and in red making it easier to see.

MIght as well just remove the kick feature then, people will stop using it if it ends up punishing the player who originated it.

I personally havent see it used that much, and usually for afk people, so I have to vote no on this suggestion.

The vote-caller is kept anonymous for a reason: the kind of player it's supposed to allow them to "vote off the island" is likely being disruptive, irritating, immature or hostile. Those kinds of players are also the type to grief the person who got them kicked off a team as retribution. Sure, the kicked player could always decide to retaliate against everyone, but it's much harder to grief seven people (or more, in the case of leagues) than just one.

And nobody should ever be penalized for trying to get rid of a disruptive player who's ruining everybody else's fun. Herc is right; if there were a risk of being kicked themselves, nobody would ever use the feature, even when it's warranted.

To prevent abuse and/or using the vote feature as a form of griefing, it might be okay to give vote-calling a "cooldown" period: if you start a vote to kick someone and it gets shot down (or, hey, maybe even if it doesn't), you can't initiate another vote to kick that player again, nor to kick anyone for, say, fifteen minutes, or until you complete the current mission/trial, or something. But nobody should be able to see that timer except you (and even that's probably not necessary).
