It's not like I care about what random person thinks of me on a forum of a random game ;3
The point wasn't even in their names. Whatever.

I'll always be confused by how someone can think a circle of arrows pointing inward means to run to the corner of the map, especially when it's been used in almost every fight for the last 2 years.

Some people have no sense.

If you guys would take 1 second to notice, nobody else stacked, both would of been dead most likely. He did the right move by sacking himself and keeping casualties to 1.

ya cos it makes it very easy to stack with you when you dash to the edge of the arena.

Though either way, the amount of times I've seen someone intentionally avoid the group with a stack marker is staggering.

Gif is kinda fast, I admit, but another healer made a move towards *victim* (you can notice that), plus there were people next to boss, which were not caught by camera. He had time to come to us x3

He showed people in this thread common mistakes people do and if you do them correct, you suddenly make the game a job. It's like saying I love fishing irl but it's suddenly a job because I managed to catch 10 fishes in 1 hour.

I agree that I came off as aggressive and implicated that her intention had maliciousness behind it. I apologize for that. However, what is then suppose to be the context of those gifs? Were you not discussing something that pisses you off and then you show these two gifs? Now I know who pisses you off because you showed their names to me, and if I wanted to, I could now proceed to harass them in-game thanks to you exposing their identities to me. It has a potential for abuse because you now know the identities of these people.

Actually the gif is too quick to know the whole thing. The person may have had people stacked with them, but they then ran away and people gave chase then gave up since if someone is running away it is better not to stack and just let them kill themselves cause usually you'll just end up dead too if you try to chase someone who is running away with a stack marker. (Seen it happen a lot)

So...no your scenario isn't necessarily correct we'd need to see the whole recording. Since there is the opposite to your scenario "people may have been stacked with the stack person, but the stack marker person ran away so people chased at first then gave up since if the stack marker person is running away it is better not to chase them and try to stack to limit the casualties to 1."

We see a raise animation. So we at least know 7 party members are alive and from that 2 are targeted with lines and 1 is obviously tanking. Meaning 4 are available to stack. Out of those 4 we only see targetted + 2 meaning the 4th is either not paying attention or dead. Taking that stack with 3 while she's in that chinchilla mode (i know that's not what it's called), I'm not so sure about. I would of sacked it and hoped the other healer can recover. I'm more worried that the other healer just watched it happen and didn't start or plan the recovery. Standing still for a good 3-4 seconds there.

Sure he could of moved in but that could of also killed both healers and ensure a wipe. In my book, he did the correct play. Free to disagree though. It's not the only possible play.

Look, it's understandable why you came out aggresive and there is nothing to say sorry for. The point was to show how many people do in this game and many here think it's something we have to accept and shut our mouths and if we don't we are the a-holes.

That's fine.

I just wanted to showcase the potential for abuse. For example, a law may not be racist, but it can have racist consequences.

A gif may not be intended to shame someone, but it can have those consequences. The original poster might not have had that intention behind it, but somebody else could now shame that person by calling them out on dying in Lakshmi fight, because they know their name. That's all I wanted to show, and I worded my post poorly regarding the original poster.

I'm going to leave this at that.
