[QUOTE="James Heard, post: 485510, member: 7280"] When I kick out players, and it's happened on more than one occassion over the years, I try to be as direct as possible about the whole thing. Basically you have to treat the whole thing like you would if you were firing someone, except that good thing is that you're not taking food out of anyone's mouths (ok ok, maybe some pizza) by kicking them out of a group. I've kicked people out on the short term occassionally, and I've kicked people out forever. I judge people a lot on the basis on how well they handle getting kicked out of a group actually, someone who shrugs it off and moves on gets a lot more points than someone who whines and tries to change my mind. I usually accept those people back the next time, no questions asked. I've even kicked people out of other people's games that I was playing with - which is trickier. If someone is making your gaming experience not fun then I think sticking with that sort of situation is just stupid. Why would you do something that's not fun? If I think I'm not meshing with the group I leave, I usually consider it pretty rude when people who aren't meshing with the group that I'm playing in insist on staying. [/QUOTE]
