reputation or karma

I'm not sure if this is correct. I'm not aware that we can even kick someone out of a game anymore. The Expel ability definitely doesn't exist. You can skip someone's turn when they are overtime. Unless they have changed it, it used to be that person could actually rejoin the game again so that this was not actually "kicking them out." (They may have changed that. I detest that skipping turns so much that I left for 8 months after that.) I also thought that was just an overtime penalty. Considering that you can skip someone's turn as soon as they're one second over time, that really should not be counted as abandoning the game.

You're right: you cannot expel someone who is overtime, you can only skip his turn. But, as far as I know, and unless it has changed recently, skipping someone's turn gives him a leave penalty and degrades his karma.

I have played a game of Hearts with you fuonlynu do you want me to explain why I red thumbed you?

During rounds while a player was trying to shoot the moon you brought it up in the chat along the lines of "why are you guys letting him do this he is trying for a moon" and then called me and the other player idiots for letting it happen.

That is breaking the unwritten rule about hearts you dont talk about tricks while the round is still in progress. Its fine to say after the round that was close you almost got a moon there or well done on the moon etc but during the round just completly ruins the game.

It's not even unwritten:
Warning other players about an attempt to shoot the moon is team play, and a breach of Hearts etiquette.
Stated in the "how to play" here on the site.

He's been told this before. He's just being a troll and not listening.

I understand the frustration - I'm in a current game where it became suspicious after one particular move, and obvious after a second move, that someone was shooting the moon (even if accidentally), but it got ignored and I finally had to take the hit trying to prevent it. But, others not "getting it" doesn't make them idiots, and no, you're not supposed to discuss it. (I never said anything afterwards either.)
