Kick Players?

Perhaps we need the ability to kick players. If someone has become belligerent about the death of their halfling or the campaign URL was carelessly passed to a stranger, the only way currently to get rid of that person is to copy your campaign and hope they don't find the new URL.
I would agree. Ran into a situation where a player needed to be removed and it took some convincing to get them to go.
I've run into similar problems. Doesn't seem like it'd be a hard mechanic to work in.
Doesn't seem like it'd be a hard mechanic to work in. 1) Never, ever say that. Ever. 2) Conversation is ongoing on our end.
This'll probably get more important as Roll20 builds more of a community for pick up games.
For now, I only intend to use it with friends (it is more a test than the real thing, because I think that Roll20 still has issues), but I would be more willing to open the game to strangers if I knew that I can kick them out if needed.
I do think it would be a useful thing to add, especially with people joining left and right during the most recent live game, a kick option seems like it would have made life a bit easier. Plus hopefully it could be finished before Roll20 gets to have a dire need for it.
I guess the tough part is implementing a kick feature that won't be too abused.
Could make it that it requires at least being seconded or have to warn the player first, I don't think it would be that common for the kick feature to be abused, considering that it's meant to remove players who are disruptive and/or player you haven't invited but who have your campaign link.
