Glossary Entry: Kick

Definition

On the internet, kicking someone means removing that person from the chat or game. This is not the same as a ban, as it only shows them the door rather than prohibits them from coming back.

This feature is usually only available to the people in charge of the chat or game session, but sometimes it's also available to a trusted user.
