So Anet implemented a feature that allows us to replace a person in our fotm group if someone leaves, but if someone DC’s and doesn’t come back and you vote to kick him the entire group gets kicked back to Lions Arch and you have to start fresh?
Want to get this straightSource
You may have kicked the instance owner, which would indeed close the instance and boot everyone out.
We are aware of a problem related to that though, and are working on solutions.
EDIT:
Whoever is the first person into the misty portal/dungeon is considered the owner of the instance, despite his placement in the party.
