I LOVE pugging. Love it. On play days, I tank 2-3 heroic pugs (and regular pugs before I was heroic-geared).

I'm forgiving of inexact play. Someone without great dps isn't an issue with me, or if they're not familiar with the boss, or they break CC, or pull aggro. That's ok.

I'm less forgiving of incompetent play. If I've told the mage to stop opening up with a Pyro before the mobs even get to me, or told the warlock that Rain of Fire isn't the best use of mana, yet they continue to do it, I'll consider kicking them.

I'm not forgiving at all of plain old rude, racist, sexist or otherwise immature behavior. First innapropriate comment from you and you're gone. I don't care if you're a t6 healer coming along for a heroic at 3am.

You should roll Horde on Sargeras. Please? :P

And to the no pants guy below, ROFL! That's hilarious.

@OP: And as a million other people have said, you made the right choice. If a player is super bad I'd consider a kick, like if they die twice as much as everyone else does, or blatantly cause every wipe. If they just aren't hitting to high on the DPS meter, not a problem. If you don't give them a shot, they'll never get better. As for idiocy and offensiveness, I'll tolerate one off-joke, but tell them to stop. They say another and they're gone, assuming I have lead.
