You realize you're the exact example when people talk about the community being toxic and horrible? It's very telling why you would choose that name.

Now where is that vote to kick button? Isn't it that yellow triangle with the exclamation point....?

P.S. When people can't type grammatically correct sentences, they hardly have room to call someone 'illiterate'.

It is even more amusing when you check his post history.

I'm really hoping the overly negative people in this community quit, it would make this game so much better :)

I disliked it, but for a different reason. I solo queued it the first morning to see maybe a boss or two to have some insight when I ran it with my guild and we blew through the entire raid at a laughably easy pace. I mean I expected to atleast wipe in a pug group the first day to have something to look forward to working toward but no.

I'm 99% this guy is trolling, but....
1. You won't be able to pug/storm through new content in the first couple of days, typically.
2. Go away

That being said, you should reconsider your toxic behavior towards people you are grouped with- not only does it make other players uncomfortable, but it's incredibly frustrating to deal with, and no one that is introduced to new content wants to deal with the flaming. So please- next time that you queue for CT, bear in mind that the content is brand new, and people are still learning- and although you may have it down, a lot of people pick these things up slower than you & I, and might take many, many attempts to finally complete them.

This explains EVERYTHING.

Omg my pinky accidently tapped the r button after "you" in my post, I apologize for not fixing it as I don't give a shit.

Sorry to say, i'm going to go off on any players that don't cooperate, when you enter a raid, you are expected to be able to cooperate not expect to get carried and get your free gear and tomes.

Not good enough to handle the content? go back to the derp easy HM dungeons until you figure out how to pay attention. I've gotten bitched at and kicked out of my fair share of titan pugs, coil groups and other various dungeons for not being able to pull my own weight, I learned from my experiences and now I lead most people through content. I wish I would have screen shotted the amount of commendations that I received off of my completed runs for telling people shit straight explaining fights and leading people to victory.

Obviously. However, you really should learn how to spell and type before you call out someone's illiteracy.

You would probably manage to misspell your screenshot too. Not sure how, but if a picture is worth a thousand words, I know I can count on half of it being illegible.

But some are already expecting it. I tried CT yesterday for the 1st time and it wasn't really a enjoyable run lol. One guy explained the 1st fight (sadly in a terrible English) and half of the People did not understand what to do. Some may not even have read the instructions because the Alliance channel shows the buffs from fairies if you use default settings and it's a Scrolling nightmare until you deactivate it. After 2 wipes, the bitching began.... "can't you guys watch Youtube before you enter this dungeon" "this is so easy why are you too dumb" "Please vote kick Player xyz".

CT dungeon is out for two days and some people are already again on the elitist side of things. In my run there were clearly a few persons who did not understand what to do but why not just give them a bit more time? Watch who is doing stupid things and talk to the people who do'nt do what they should..in a reasonable manner instead of using caps lock and yelling lol. How can they dare to not do it right in the 1st time after a great Hero has explained the so easy tactics..how I love this kind of attitude.

I will try CT again for sure but it seems to be a roulette lol. Too many variables (language, skills, experience) that might interfere your run but it is one dungeon with these requirements and I am sure people will get used to it over time. I only wish the people who expect a crisp run on the 1st attempts would go away lol.

After reading your initial post I was inclined to explain thoughtfully how to deal with random people and maybe give some other advice on the matter. But after reading deadwings post and your behavior in this thread(which fits his story) I'm going to side with Deadwing here and wish you (and the people you are paired up with) good luck on your future endeavors.

Sure they can. FFXI is proof of that. Examples you ask? Dynamis. Most of the dynamis runs were usually mixed with random people. Guess what? It was 64 players. However people MOST people were patient in XI whereas most players in this game are not. Why? Because timers in dungeons has killed any social and communication aspects of the game so people resort to speed runs due to the timer issue and end up not working together most of the time. That's my 2 cents.

Go run coil with your awesomeness, CT gear is already outdated. I'm sure everyone you meet in CT would appreciate that.

Play CT for fun, all the gear is replaceable. If it isn't fun. . . Go find a lake and get a flower named after you.

Your "alts"? I think you're not using that word properly. Perhaps you mean your other jobs. Guess what... between myth and coil (and now EM primals) you don't need CT to gear "alts" either. Finding justification to hangout in CT thinking you're better than you probably are, is not something worth doing. Man up, go play in coil 1&2 and do some myth spending.

A friend told me CT is before Coil, That the gear that drops in ct helps players gear up to do coil am I wrong? So far well on my dragoon I don't have enough gear to run coil since I don't have full AF2 gear, I have AF2/ DL/ Relic weapon and many say I need much better to even try coil...
12-19-2013, 06:55 PM

CT is supposed to be for that reason, but coil is not too difficult to do in darklight.

I had a blast in CT also the 200 myth you get is appreciated.. There is 4 or 5 items per run so you have a 50% chance or greater getting a piece, but most of my run was all bard stuff which went to waste cause everyone passed lol.. Still we wiped about 4 times on behemoth, and 2-3 on all others, only once on final boss and finished with 15 mins left on the clock.. we had 2 rage quitters but they were replaced quick enough..

Cant wait to see the rest they bring out.

It is true. But keep in mind that the 'barrier' for entry into coil is full DL. You don't actually need full DL, but since DL can be purchased with philo tomes, it is expected that you work to obtain the full DL for many pug groups. Not always but a common requirement. With that said, being on a 1 week lockout for coil, 450 myth a week, and 1 week lockout for CT, you are almost better using CT to gear a second job that you wish to gear for later coil runs. Ultimately it is up to you. In the end, just have fun and enjoy the game.

Wait... 200 myth? Is that a typo? I finished that dungeon with 150/450 and I'm pretty sure I had already run Copperbell Mines (Hard) so it should only give 100 at most?

The server I am on has too many players that do not like others to dip into the fun so I just farm fates/ wp/ ak/ primals on hard. I am fast on whatever I do and I know my skills and stats well for my classes I play but I think also the FC I am in, I don't know they don't do anything really just talk once in a while. I have quit a few times looking for a more active fc to run stuff with but it can be a hassle due to many players and the (epeen ego trips)

Too bad I already cleared turn 1 and 2 this week? and for the 4th time in a row I have yet to see any tank drops. Why am I in CT? Because it's not a content lock like coil, I'm sick of playing on my which no one is ever looking for in a pug.

Why can't I use the term "alt" for classes? It is my "alternate" class I play on my character, why is that not a viable term, is it because everyone uses the term "alt" for completely different toons? Not good enough for me sorry.
