dude, there's blacklist for a reason and you can easily just leave a dungeon if people are giving you a problem. There's no need for the community to take action, people need to take responsibility for them selves.Quote:

Please just enjoy playing despite bad personalities. Make friends, blacklist people who offend you. Also consider that things said in chat have no tone and you may misunderstand it occasionally.
I once had someone yell at me in this way:
me: "Click on the fire" (after fire ele boss, when noone joined me at the next stage)
some troubled team mate: "Who do you think you are telling me what to do!"
I was speechless... but I hope it was a joke... -

The way this guy acted is BEYOND ridiculous. -
09-05-2013, 06:42 PMd4rkieIt can silence people and make them able to communicate only with scripted phrases. Would be fine by me. That being said, auto-banning is bad. I'd like GMs to decide on bans, but have their reports there to check.Quote:

I got into a stone vigil tonight. It was one of the worst MMO experiences i've had in years.
The healer was a lvl 50, he said he was from the server Leviathan but I wont post his name. Anyways on the last boss the took off all his gear and wiped us. Then he kept telling us he was going to heal for real and then wipe us again. After the third wipe he decided he was done and wasn't going to heal.
I have a screen shot where he specifically said "I joined this dungeon just to troll"
Really awesome considering my hour long que. -

Every where where you have to involve yourself with a living being, be it a person you work with, you play with, come across on the street, or even your/their pets. There will always be nice people, but also rude people. That is something we cannot change. How ever, that doesn't make it OK to rage/lash out to someone, just because they did something wrong.
Usually people tend to react based on their emotional state at that time. Who knows, you might be the 10th person (s)he's come across which makes the same frustrating mistake. You never know. Next to that, being anonymous online, people tend to say the first thing what's on their mind, even if its rude.
At some cases, opinions/reactions that were meant to be constructive, can still be interpreted as offensive by others.
The only we as players can do, is respect others, help them out when needed and most of all, stay calm and composed. Do not let our emotions do the talking. (^_^ ) -

Know the parents are to afraid to let there kids climb up a tree and also there are to afraid to let them deal with there problems themself. They are growing up to adults and still cant stay for themself. -
09-05-2013, 06:54 PMEfryeI don't think it matters how "stable" you are. Last time I checked, this is a game and most people come here to have fun, which just isn't possible with these kinds of people.Quote:

Most of them don't even seem to realize that they're being complete asshats because everyone is just like "Oh, that's the way it goes on the interwebs olololol!". -

I'll have to say that I've seen very little bashing, swearing, bullying during all of my duty finder runs.
However the first time I saw it, was during Ifrit(Hard). And surprisingly it resembled a bit like the above.
I've noticed that this kind of behaviour suddenly appears during the level 50 instances/boss fights/primal battles.
But even then, it doesn't happen that badly. I just ignore it, knowing that's the 10% of the player base who acts like that on failures.
Funny enough, I was a PLD tank who had to stun Ifrit's eruptions as well for the first time. I'm usually a very good player. But it was past midnight that day and I was feeling drowzy. Which was a bad idea to do an Ifrit run. Little to say that I stunned the plumes a lot of times by accident, due to reacting a bit too fast. People need to understand however that high pressure/ ingame latency / inexperience can lead to people stunning the plumes. The interval to stun an eruption is sometimes very short due to latency issues.
It's sometimes stressful when you stun Ifrit only to see that eruption bar almost fill itself completely before seeing the stun effect apply.
That said, for those pld tanks on stun duty. Ifrit has a fixed pattern of when he uses eruption. If you're having troubles reacting on time, learn the pattern instead.
I don't have that issue anymore though. And I can even tank and stun his eruptions at the same time.
