The noob moments that you have witnessed that made you /facepalm...

Okay so back in the day I'm on my way to a dunes party and blood tear was up. An alliance of 60-75 were fighting it and I stood at a distance for a bit watching. Next thing I know two of the plds and three whm are all dead. I'm all omg it's gonna go yellow n kiiillllll meeeee!!! So I left them feeling a bit scared about the NM.

Another one was when I was in my 50s on ninja right after the mpk patch was put in and was partying deep inside Gustav Tunnle. The whm who was the leader was an idiot so my husband and I got the the rest of the party to get him killed. He was also missing spells that a friend was supposed to be bringing. Anyways his replacement R2s him he doesn't take it sending a /tell of course after getting mad at the party for killing him saying he has same friend coming to R3 him.

Was helping some people with promy-holla. This was before the level cap was taken off. This guy on war says he needs to afk and that he is on follow. Doesn't inform who he is following on so not knowing it is me I do a gear swap. He almost agros a good section of floor 3 when he comes back. Later on the same floor he gets distracted while on auto run. Argos like 5 mobs. We kill them all but not without having to zombie a few along with some mobs that agroed while we half alive. Haven't done much with the person since then.

I won't go into details but if I recounted every time I went into the Sacrarium for CoP 4-3 with a shout group/helping a group that has some one I know in it, I'm sure I'd facepalm a hundred times, mostly about people dropping sneak/invis while surrounded by fomors, or epic fails against Kermet. Or even more epic fails at fighting the professor. Or /facepalm moments at people going ON the count of 3 while the other person goes AFTER the count of 3 for the double key door, and the key breaks, making us waste another hour getting another key. Cannot forget those awful swift belt runs to boot.

The most noobish one I've seen is when there is that ONE person in your PT that is bragging about whatever (usually how awesome he can do *any* job or the job he is in the PT) and you tell him "fine go out and do it how *you* think it should be done".....
They take 3 steps and boom you get a "can I get a raise?!" because the genuis died to a "easy prey" mob....because he was wearing LVL 1 gear at lvl 40.

Also then you have a lvl 50 who died to a "to weak to be worthwhile" goblin in West Ron as a lvl 6 is taking on 2 gobs at once...
Then the lvl 6 finishes her goblins and has to help the lvl 50 >.>

I am not sure but I witnessed it so I know it happened.
The lvl 50 claimed it was before his gear was crap.

And the dude was in my LS at the time. He was an idiot.

Yeah, it's kind of hard to say "Hey...you just kind of suck on many different levels." to someone who's in your LS. When they're strangers in a party or alliance, it's easier because you don't personally know them. Well, if you didn't care for them in the LS, then I guess it would be easy to say that lol.

LOL the whole LS told him that on a daily basis. And they would send him on random stuff to just get "rid" of him..because he would mess anything up that the LS was doing. He has since quit the game...and last I heard he was over in Japan- but not sure on that part.

A noob moment that I had whitnessed:

An Aegis Paladin in my old, old, old, old Linkshell who thought he could tank and Shield Block Hydra by fighting with his back facing the HNM. He also did this for Kirin, though we were going to kite it.

...Why didn't any of the sackholders boot him?
