Only two times:

1. **** name and antisocial playing (Edit: censored part = related to not so pleasant events in Germany's 20th century history)

2. Idling for a really long time (I'm very patient and appreciate the time for a coffee refill/pee break/ quick level up myself, but there's a limit.

Other than that, after every match I'm glad I don't get kicked myself for noobish play, so why do it to others?

I'm going to cast the first stone, I have never kicked someone from any match ever, not even when they took 10 minutes to press the ready button only to go red a second later for another 4 minutes. I haven't even kicked the guys who come into the game with mikes comparing everything to gears and who are obviously noobs to everything, one even asked what a geth was, or who cerberus was, and none of them would answer...I am not joking, they really had no freaking idea.

That said, I've been kicked out twice, been called to be kicked out once. Once because I took 30 seconds to get my equipment picked out. The other was as soon as I got into the lobby, probably didn't like batarians or something. The time I was asked to be kicked was probably from a member of a three man group, I was the only one who wasn't in green that match, but that guy got two votes to be kicked before he stopped yelling for me to be kicked.

Ok, i confess i kicked yesterday someone out of my (i was hosting) gold game, cause the guy was level 2, and his N7 rating was 2, too. And, i confess, i don't regret. After kicking several more poor chaps, and being lucky to have two adequate persons to join my game (third, as it turned out, was lazy and/or lame), we managed to beat gold and do full extraction. And since i had no time for another game so this was my only try for the time, i am quite grateful we did kick all these too-low too-weak characters (yep, i confess, we did kick quite a few more). I know it's selfish to kick people only because their N7 rating is too low, but i guess in cases like N7 rating = 2, kicking such guys out of gold (and even silver) games is actually a good deed - it helps them as well as me, it helps them because by kicking them i prevent them from being very much upset with the fact that all they can do in gold (and even, silver) game - is observe other people playin'. Oh, and also die now and then (when new round starts), too.

Still, i guess i'm guilty. I confess! :)

Heh heh don't feel bad we've all done it.  It's never easy to do your first kick.  :lol:

I just wanted to say that as far as geth farming on gold is concerned, I did that with nearly any class and weapon so far. yes, soldiers do fine, especially Turians, drell adepts /vanguard with geth shotgun/claymore and revenant can do the trick. There is no such thing as bad class or gear if you can use it. And decoy is not mandatory.

I only kicked for AFK's or the guy/girl on Silver who has a level 6 Vanguard/Human "Battlefield 3" at N7-6 who immediately green-lights as the second player in the lobby. Ya. That's going to really work with your Avenger I and Shuriken I, and no consumables equipped (so they at least look like they are trying)

Only ever kick on Bronze for AFK. Goofing off is okay, and I just had a ridiculous game today with 3 krogans sporting Claymores and Geth Plasma's. Refreshing.

I don't really mind if there's one person's rocking a ridiculous build. You can generally complete a Silver with three, so no big deal if this ridiculous player ends up being a hazard. Krogans can be nice meat shields while you are playing a glass-cannon Adept. Just don't expect us to rez you too often if you die via 5 guardians in the middle of nowhere.

Not usually multiplayer guy and still haven't kicked. Had 2 N7 200+ try to kick n7 15 Krogan, kept him and he was great for another 4 matches. Im a noob so sorry I just feel guilty and players have risked it for me plus kind of average at best but I try:)

hmm, let me think.

Wait, it is a sin to kick players with poor skills? Why wasn't I told?

I kicked someone once, but that was only because he/she was taking a long time, and the other two people wanted to kick him/her first. I'm merely a victim of peer pressure, don't judge me!

I kicked a guy for being a ****** to a new player... So, if he'd rather insult them, than help them get better, he can find a new room. :P

Basically only kick when someone sits and admire his/her guns for 5 min when everyone else has readied up and are waiting.

It would be nice if someone from BioWare could confess their sins as well, we've all done it... We know you have too!

I've kicked for players leeching off of the team; I'm very disappointed in the number of players that do this in public Silver matches. I've also kicked for players performing very poorly during a match, which usually means excessive dying to the point where someone has to pair with them to ensure their safety. I never kick for doubling up on a class or not having a mic; I rarely use my own headset, and I know different builds of the same class can have very different, very positive results.

Too inexperienced and low leveled and would just be a liability.

It hurts to be kicked, but I suppose there some sense to it.

@Monkey Buisness: Human Soldiers are handy. They're more agile than Krogan, Turian, or Batarian soldiers, and they pack frag grenades.

Also I started got good at multiplayer a lot earlier than 150. Tho I'm over that number now.


I rarely kick on bronze, unless they stand in the back for most of the mission, or take more than a couple minutes to get ready.  RL happens.

On Silver, if you're rocking with real lowbie gear, no good mods on common weapons, no ammo/armor mods, I'd vote to kick.  Though I've seen people rocking a high-level Mantis, and they did REALLY well

And, yes, Human soldiers are agile...that just means we can run away from Brutes and Banshees longer.  And even though I'm not an infiltrator, last mission I ended up being everyone's rez pony.  I hate grenades though, I throw one...and...it bounces...rolls down the ramp...and kills 1 husk...and I completely miss the brute, banshee and ravager I was aiming for

A name like that calls for extreme measures...like arranging a team wipe on wave 4 so you waste his time.  And THEN telling him why you suddenly had to do something like go get more ammo, go AFK...leader quits so they have to restart the wave...

 I've kicked someone because I played a few matches with them and they sucked at the same time a friend came on and wanted to join in.

He wanted to play gold with his level 1. Just because his N7 rank was above 1000 does not mean he won't need hp/shields/damage/powers.

Reading this thread is quite interesting... as I'm completely new, not only to ME3 multiplayer, but to multiplayer in general.

I never wanted to try it with other games, because I have better things to do than being headshotted 2 seconds after I join a game, or have my sexual orientation or the romantic involvements of my mother questioned by someone who still has to grow hair on his testicles. But with ME3, I thought I'd give it a try, especially because it's not PvP multiplayer.

I had only one semi-bad* experience while playing (about N7 level 15 now), and after reading this thread, I know why. The reasons why you kick players are completely understandable, even to me as a complete newbie.

I don't have the audacity to try and join a game on Silver or Gold on my level.
I actively participate in the game, not just hang around for others to gain XP for me.
I don't go for a smoke or idle around.
If I have to go to the toilet or get a beer or whatever, I get out of the match to free up my slot for others who are ready.
If possible, I revive teammates, concentrate on the marked targets, defend someone who's hacking, and so forth.
I will try out Silver when I consistently rank first or second in Bronze matches and have a few characters maxed. So far, I've only managed to rank #2 once.
Yes, I took the wrong weapons with me in the beginning. Yes, I nearly missed an extraction at the end once. Yes, I'm new, yes I'm still learning and that's why I play on bronze.

So bottom line: I'm positively surprised by the multiplayer experience, and confirms the notion that people are generally nice if you have some common sense.

*Some guy, the only one with a microphone (I play on PS3, almost nobody has one, and I prefer it actually), was being a ****** while we waited for the other players to get ready and was telling me how not to behave in the upcoming match, with colorful words.

If I'm playing silver and someone has a level 1 with an N7 rating of 1 I will generally kick them, or if they idle for too long... It shouldn't take any longer than 5 minutes to buy your crap and fix your inventory.

I only kick players that obviously won't be of use in Gold games at all, or if they're idling in the lobby for ages (several mins is more than enough)...

I try to avoid kicking though unless it's obvious that it's needed, (N7 of <50 in gold with basic weapons & low leve char). I find that I like to give people a chance, I recently played with a N7 of only 140 who had a Widow IV on a level 7 Salarian Infiltrator who we couldn't have won Gold Reactor without. Phantoms were dead in ~1 second after we saw them - quick stasis, energy drain & headshot combos and he definitely fit the revival / objective role well. He had second highest score out of a team of 2 level 20 Asari Adepts & a level 20 Geth Engineer!

Some people are just too quick to kick others because they're not level 20 with N7 >200 etc...
