Add democratic player kicking for online games
Like in starcraft where a majority of people have to vote to boot a lagger, if all players type "/kick username" (or the player's #, like with wormkit's kicking feature) into the chatbox then that player is dropped. It would be harder to abuse this than when only the host has the kicking authority. This way even one person could refuse to kick, which would prevent the kicking of someone who doesn't really deserve it (ie: they're slightly noobish).

I think it could work, but the kick should need 50% support (i.e 3 players out of 5 in a game)

there's a problem with this though. what if there's a friend of the "noob" in the game and he's refusin to kick him. and if a host acts a jerk kicking people u can vote with ur feet against his choice (just leave the game). or what if some1 is away at the moment. i think it's just better for host to be able to kick. and u can already kick with firewall or other programs anyway if u're the host.
