Votekicking people with re-connection tools before 1 minute

I recently got kicked from a game within ~20-30 seconds of intermittent lag...I was votekicked that fast, and I was in the process of fixing the problem. The legion TD mega bot tends to lag me, plus my internet has been shit lately.

I wanted to know if I can ban people for votekick abuse when I HAVE GPROXY and they STILL kicked me after 20-30 seconds even after I came back 2-3 times. In my opinion that was complete bullshit, why tell people to use re-connection tools when people still kick them without even letting them attempt to fix the problem.

@Priceless- so you are saying you lagged a couple other times in that game?
if you are lagging making the game harder to play for other people then yes they have the right to vote kick you.
It does stop you from dropping of your team needs you but if everyone else determines it is ruining their gaming experience they have every right to vote kick you.....

I understand that being kicked while you are trying to reconnect is gay. However, it is the players' time and choice to wait for you or not. In the first place, players should be playing under a reliable stable internet. I would like to believe that most players are fine with waiting about a minute or so giving players a chance to reconnect. We can make rules to wait for a person reconnectin in a league (like how we do in LIHL), but hard to enforce it in public games.

Unless vk, players cannot vote to kick you (via the menu window) during the first 80 seconds of gproxy.
