I for one don't think that kicking a dick out of your party should be made against the rules at all, in fact a quick and easy way to fix the follow issue is for a pop up to occur asking to confirm that you want that person to follow you.
Since following seems to be a potential issue in this game mind as well modify it.
Botting is unfair to other players, but from how I see it its just modified slavery. If a person is talented enough to make bots then I find no reason to hate on them, its another tool that is potentially available to everyone you just have to make it.
PVP is unfair in itself, If I were a level one who fights a level 400 then die or find myself outmatched that's normal.
Perhaps there should be some more regulation of bots but it seems that the Devs agree that Bots are fine outside of PVP.
Public mining, and Kicking followers is related to PVP but honestly I don't see how those things affect PVP gameplay. Same with locker Farming. I found that in public mines resources replenish fast enough where I didn't have to care if there were 20 NPC's running amok, some PC's could even be bots for all I cared.
