Alright, let's go higher level content this time, just remembered the worst colibri party leader I ever had.
This of course was post-level sync update.
The party leader is a DRK, the party is about level 55, we head out to the leypoint camp, and it's taken. We check the other viable camps in the area, taken. We switch zones, and check the camp outside the Nashmau docks from Whitegate. This one is open so we have to settle for this already poor choice of a camp.
Party starts, we're doing "okay", I believe I was on DNC and pulling. Then I begin noticing that the Dark Knight isn't weaponskilling. I do not say anything, and continue to observe. Then I notice...he isn't even landing hits... /facepalm. I don't say anything, as he's the leader. 5 minutes later, he weaponskills. ... He uses "Slice" and my fist goes through my skull cause not only does he use Slice, he does 0 damage (don't know how it landed). Thus begin the /tells to other party members about this atrocity. They all agree, he needs to go. Once I get everyone's consent/agreement (wasn't hard) we begin looking for a replacement for him. Soon as we find one, we all just completely stop. He begins wondering what the hell is going on. "Why'd you guys stop?" No one replies. We wait about 5-10 minutes for the replacement to get close and then do a simultaneous drop from his party and never say a word to him. He starts flipping out. So, we explain. Doesn't help. Let's just end it there, basically, he dies a lot (we even raise him once) after this point and theres lots of swearing as I stare at him in pity and tell him to go skill up.
Best (or worst?) part? He wasn't even the level sync. I was also out dding him as DNC about a hundred fold +.
Edit: Did I mention he was wearing the DRK af boots the whole time? -

Ok, talking about lack of skills...here's one zyeriis....
I used my "Sharpshot" automaton for the first time in a meripo (no skill level meant I didn't use him because I knew he couldn't hit) because the pt leader told me to. It was almost 3 hours into the party my automaton started hitting, and another 3 before he started doing damage. The second 3 hour gap was because each time he hit, he got a 0.5 skillup, and it took 3 hours with that before he was high enough skill wise to do damage.
The whole time I offered to pull out my capped valoredge, because not only could it hit, it could actually do damage. He said "nah, just use this time to skillup that sharpshot." -

He saw on his own I wanted a bit more then what he had ( I requre at lest a tp set and a ws set since at 75 nyzul ile you can lack damage if everyone is not up to a standard). So he left, without a complaint. I do not mean to sound elitist in saying this but I have had bad drks before that did not gear properly and lost due to lack of damage. I was a bit picky when it came to gear on BLU and DRK for nyzul, those jobs where hit or miss, you got really good ones or really bad ones.
now back to my story
Pt was me war, PLD, THF, others.
the pt leader was PLD and i was told to voke for sata, so i said ok
Now birds and inchi does not mix well, i had to cast when I was on 2 or 1 shadow left or no hope in getting it up. So i would voke, and cast inchi and still get into like 50%- red hp so i started to watch closer in why instad of my timers.
Looking closely I saw the following:
the pld was duo boxing the thf
the thf was not casting utsusemi
the thf was auto running the mobs to mess up the sata ( this is how i knew it was duo boxing)
first i complain about the thf not casting utsusemi because that wastes mp, and messes me up because if the rdm or w/e is curing the thf I do not get cured waiting for the sata.
he said it was for evade skill ups and that he did not have tools or something to that effect and not having money. he then said it was not a big deal because he was not getting hit.
i try to tolerate this because I only had liek 1 hr left before school.
Then the auto running became more problem.
I started to complain about the auto running messing up sata or being to slow in sata thus was the reason i was almost dieing or did ( i think I did die once I do not remember)
he said I was too slow in voking ( I started to add a small delay to make them line up quicker)
eventually he kicks me out of the party and gets a new member.
I then sent tells to my replacement, and to the other party members, got them all to join me, got a brd for 6th.
He then tried to make a new party to camp on top of me that end up braking in like 30 mins because it sucked.
about 10 mins before i have to leave I get this tell (this was before that new party broke)
"hey is anyone leaving soon? this party really sucks"
I replay , yes you can replace me, I have to go soon anyway. (the war stayed in that other pt till it broke then waited for me till i had to go)
so they continue without me and sir gimp at duo boxing leaves the area after his second party broke.
short version : PLD and THF makes a party with me
gets a replacement for me/ kicks me that point
i have everyone join me ( so the other 4 + me is 5)
got brd for 6th
old leader makes a new party
someone in the new party asked me if anyone was leaving soon
that person took my spot.
I stole 5 of his members in total -

@Rambus
I feel absolutely no remorse for that mutiny. As he had a level 75 job, which he came back and tried to kill our mobs with and failed, miserably, and died repeatedly on, which is even more pathetic. There was no excuse for having a skill so far gimped that he didn't even have Dark Harvest in a level 55 ToAU bird camp and was party leader (the party set up was pretty sucky to boot). He died at our feet and we gave him a raise, he denied it and sat there for about 20 minutes, complaining that he didn't have time to skill up. Irony is amazing. -
03-24-2011, 05:20 PMRambusOh i understand, the thing is though if you sent him a tell , maybe he had GA leveled or something ( GA or axe is better but axe needs level 56) you might not have gone though that.Quote:

closer when he is about to leave he said he has a blue on the way, I told him to tell the blu no i found a rep already and told you ealier.
the blue mage comes anyway and starts to kill all our mobs. -.-
hmm no time to skill up? I don't why someone would play MNO with such limited time, though skill up issues need to be less atm. -

I was tanking a lvl43 crawlers nest party and after a while i noticed the whm wasnt removing the poison i had on. So i politely informed the whm i was poisoned and they repeatedly cast erase on me.
/facepalm ..for having to tell a lvl 43 whm that poisona gets rid of poison -

RDM in my first Dunes party back when I started. I poked a banshee the RDM screamed at me said they aggro emotes disbanded and ran for Selbina aggroing the banshee and 3 gobs as he went. Wish i could remember the name.

"I got red weakness with Fire II before"
