About the passage quoted, you translated it wrong. Your reaction to what you thought it meant was correct, but it isn't that hard to understand.

What it probably means is that Dow is party leader of a twelve-person party. Eight of the people are in a party together. They aren't going to leave, considering that they all know each other and really don't care about Dow or the other three people. Dow is either stuck playing a game in which two thirds of the players don't understand or boots them so that they may now play the game correctly, but there's only four people in the party and the game doesn't have enough players to really be fun.

I do agree with you that the parties do more good than harm. I would never get rid of them.
In which case it is as simple as sending them a very hostile message telling them to get their ass out of the party, before their mother's sexual decency is brought into question. Sometimes the choices are tough, but standards must be upheld. You are the party leader, in the United States of You. You are the alpha, the omega, and the person in charge. If they can't accept your terms, then you have every right to boot them, one by one starting with the party chat leader. He's gone, and if that doesn't get the message across, knock off another person. Even if they never get the picture, you successfully broke the group of assholes up, forcing them to invite one another into a new custom game. All the while you sit pretty atop of the player roster, perfectly capable of inviting new players.

But let's focus on what really matters here: Party Chats in Gears of War 2. If something exists that allows me to tell my teammates where the enemy is as I fly around in my death cam without having to pick up a phone, it's above all criticism.
