Just when I thought DF couldn't get any worse...

I hate to point this out, but your character there may be the issue. It is an unoriginal idea to simply create a clone of a character already existing within the series.

With such a thriving roleplay community, I can understand why people don't want to see a Rinoa clone in a game series where she made an appearance. Especially since this game follows the design of the older games, before VII. I'm not saying it's right to be so judgemental, but I can tell you why you may be addressed in such a light.

lol?!!?! People haven't been rude to me. I see them being rude to others though. Wtf. this is the most ridiculous thing I've heard. No one ever even said anything bad about the name I picked in the game. I get a lot of nice comments actually..lol ;o

Tried to run Ifrit hardmode this morning, but was met with a warrior troll that decided he just wanted to queue into group and scream "Leory Jenkins" as he aggros Ifrit and repeatidly wipes the group. Even after accepting the 15 min penalty, I kept getting matched up with this warrior in subsequent queues.

The whole experience left a sour taste in my mouth. Such a shame really.

We had a new tank and we all banded as a group, with encouragement, each attempt getting us closer and closer to victory until we finally downed her. Sure it took 90 minutes, but this is a game and I was having fun because of the great people who qued with me. Grats to the SCH who got his book :P

Thank you for the encouragement. Once in a while I get a group like the one you detailed. Groups like what you described should be the norm, not the exception. It's sad that it's not the norm. I can't help but feel that this is how groups *should* be. Even trolls had a first time in all of these instances. They too had to learn the strats and etc. I assume that they must have had at least some groups that extended them the courtesy of teaching them the ropes (and watching the cs's) that they now deny all subsequent groups. Anyway, I digress.
