Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent.

First of all, I would have left after the threat. It exposes what kind of guy he is, and gives the impression that one tiny mistake, and gone.

I feel like if yall wiped on that big room pull, he would have initiated the kick.

I honestly wish they would have kicked me, I didn't wanna leave and have the penalty, and imagine the next poor soul that would have gotten put in there.

He probably would have tried, I feel like they were going to when they were sitting around before the final boss, but you can't kick someone when the loot is still being rolled on, which is why I didn't roll.

This is the only time I'll condone exploiting that. It drives me nuts when trolls use to do that in the 24 mans.

I went on to have three good runs after that, so they're partly out of my mind... Kinda thinking of reporting but I wasn't sure if I had enough to really warrant any action.

Bail

Bail

Bail

9/10 times in a run that starts with someone being antagonistic towards you, I guarantee you, you will end up finishing the run with a real bad taste in your mouth.

You should report I'm. If you don't..someone else will suffer the same issue - best to deal with the trouble sooner as opposed to later. What the tank said is enough to get the cops called on him in many states in this country. And as to the previous statement? Why Bail - when I can record/watch/monitor.

They will bury themselves. > : )

Its my personal philosophy not to start runs where my gut gives me a bad feeling. Typically its right and if I ignore it, even if at the end the run I report/record, I'm the one who ends up having a bad aftertaste.

I know its hard to leave when because of the penalty (and even worse if you were queuing as a dps) but personally, I'd rather spend the next 30mins feeling fine than simmering about a bad run.

...Well that sure was something... Might indeed want to consider reporting that guy.

Also, please don't tell me the party had only DPS with no AoE (so at that level any melee, or to an extent a summoner). Would be kind of a sure sign they were indeed trying to mess with you with the big pull. Or were just bad. Or both.

Feeling has nothing to do with it. - I refuse to give them the satisfaction. And if they kick me...all the more evidence to bury them with.

REPORT REPORT REPORT! What he's said is illegal (threatening to you know what, and I'm pretty sure that's an offence here in the UK as well). I would also get law enforcement involved and ask if they can work with Square Enix for a full investigation to potentially get the guy put behind bars.

That's fine and all but notice the only reportable thing in Anarnee's story was at the end of the run where the tank said something that's actually punishable.

So she started with a bad feeling and ended up feeling bad anyways. So yeah, its a matter of feelings. My advice basically boils down to trusting your gut and following it.

Seems your outnumbered in your gut feeling. So yeah...run off...since that's your preferred choice. While the rest of us will face the problem head on.
