    What if someone steps away for 10 seconds?

    Also, if you're in middle of a battle, it's one thing if one person is preoccupied with booting -- but having the whole team distracted would likely get you a wipe.

    For the caves, at least, I still think the best solution would be to take them off the "join game" list until they can figure out a way to make it fair.

    I used to do that on the Crush the Keeper map when a leech wouldn't go away. Just aggro some shade mages who have area effect spells and go stand beside the leech until he was killed or ran away. Then I'd follow him around.....was like a game in a game.....but that doesn't work so well in the caves, especially kiting the witch for that is just death on a stick.....taking the Shadow Caves off the "join" list would definitely go a long way towards solving this issue......but for the whole game, the boot mechanism needs to be fixed. In areas where I'm just farming or looking for Bubba, etc. lower level guys don't do any harm and I don't boot or lock those games. But when you are trying to accomplish a mission or a goal that requires high level/high skill participants, really need to be able to have control over the party. Does reporting a low level that won't leave actually cause them to get reprimanded or anything?
    Just curious. Thanks.

    I also agree with all this. There should be a option to boot.
