Is this kind of behavior acceptable in GOIO?

Does he say it was his first? I just skipped to the part. Not going to sit through his vid. He seemed to have some concept of what to do so didn't seem like a total noob to me. Keep in mind, some of us have had noobs on their ships which literally behave like untrained chimps. Shooting randomly, banging on things randomly, and flinging fecal matter at random crew members ;D.

If you're not willing to take the time to bother to see if it's someones first match, then you really shouldn't pass judgement.  He had done only the tutorials, and then that was the first game he'd ever played.  It irritates me that people are so willing to dismiss someone without bothering to ask simple questions.  Ugh.

Yes, we've all had the people that refuse to or don't want to learn, and it's frustrating.  Best you can do is try to explain what you need and why, and hope that eventually they'll learn (obviously not playing if they try to stay on your ship after the match.)

But if you just dismiss people instantly, you could miss out on teaching gold nuggets that will one day grow into strong community members.

So.... time to barely glance at a video then pass judgement?

Sounds good.

If you click on a player's name, you can select "Block X" in addition to "Add X as friend." This will prevent you from being able to hear their voice chat and see their text chat, which comes in very handy for spammers and other rule-breakers so you can peacefully ignore them. Just make sure if someone's breaking the rules that you also click to report them so that Muse can take any necessary action against them.

I can't stand players like that. Sorta the reason I was turned off of online multiplayer games for a long time. Oh don't worry. I will always have my new video capture software on standby when playing just in case if they decide to challenge my claim later.

They don't complain about quitters, you're missing the point.  They treat their crews like this to make them quit.  Particularly when mid-game joiners takes you from Captain (pilot) +Gunner +2xAI, to Captain +2xGunner +Pilot.

If you haven't shouted at a new joiner for being an idiot for joining a second or third gunner or pilot, then you're either a saint or a liar.

And I still don't want a kick option.  But I would like to specify the role for the slot.  And if I set a slot as Engineer, and a player tries to join as a Gunner they should see the message "The Captain of this airship has set a preference for an Engineer in this slot.  Continue Yes/No?"
