I would also vote NO GAMING instead of BAD GAMING.
When a group of us started playing 3.0 in 2000, I wanted to play but no one else wanted to DM or had experience DMing, so I took the reigns and sat in the end table chair. Almost immediately it became apparent that one of the party of 5 was intent upon being a thorn in my side. He was / is a friend, in fact he is my cousin, but he was a horrible gamer to me. I offered to let him, or anyone else DM and still no one wanted it. The other 4 were very content with my DMing and how I ran the game. Only this one person was making us all miserable. It quickly became an issue of one of us had to go, and the will of the group was that it was him. That group grew and changed and lasted for 5 years after that, but those first few sessions were so brutal I was ready to quit 3.0 before the new smell had even faded from my DMG.
Bad gaming is just bad, there is no saving throw for it.
