Why can't I vote to kick campers?

Was there ever an explanation for not being able to kick people from teams during STFs? You know, besides "If it's not something that's going to make us money, it's not on our scope"?

    There was the abuse of the system thingy. It'll give Trolls the ultimate power to grief. Worse then when they AFK.

    Yeah, because it's more possible to have four trolls in team than having afker. Please hide in some shelter because you have same chance to be hit today by passing near by asteroid.

    You're missing the point. It's not about what is more possible, but about what is possible to begin with, and clearly, such a system would be abused. You don't always need four trolls anyway, but just one who is able to convince the others with some false truth. Some people really don't care and are quick on judgement, without really knowing what's actually going on. They just want to have fun, and don't want to deal with this stuff either, so they just hit the kick button and be done with it....

    Live can be abuse, please cease it. Every system in sto can be abuse one way or another, so why is this game still on?

    Many games use kick vote option. And guess what, players have no problems with it. Why? Because it more tool against trolls then for trolls.

    Yeah you just keep telling yourself that nonsense but please spare me your unrelated & unqualified comparisons... I prefer a few people beeing afk (for whatever reason), than some kick/ban happy fools trolling about like maniacs.

    An you really believe that almost every queue you go will have such player? Tell me honestly what is in your opinion chance for such situation. Please go play any other game with working kick option (for example: SWTOR) than come here and say how many times you saw situation you are afraid of.

    Vote to kick options have been asked about for years now. I've seen it abused in games that have it, I've seen it work in games that have it. It's a 50/50 shot on how it would work. The huge difference here is ya don't have to PUG if you want to worry about afkers. There are numerous channels out there that do private queues that you could join to get things done.
    Yes, I'm that Askray@Batbayer in game. Yes, I still play. No, I don't care.
