Halfop status is only given to people that are exemplary with the way they conduct themselves in the chatroom and do not ask for having higher powers. If you were kicked, chances are it was because of one of the following:
1) Flooding / Spamming. If someone is posting in a manner that is disruptive to others when people have asked them to stop, then they can get booted from the channel. If it persists any longer, it can result in a ban from the channel.
2) Flaming. We do not allow harassment to occur on the channel. If members have something to say that is inflammatory, it is best that it is kept to themselves.
3) Swearing / Non G-Rated content. If someone curses or talks about something in the chat that is not suitable for all ages, it can also result in kicks and bans, depending on the circumstances.
We want the chatroom to be a friendly place for all members, regardless of their age, gender, experience in the tcg, etc. So if you are able to follow the rules given here and on the chatroom page, you shouldn't be kicked from the channel.
