Watch your attitude on the DF or this...

lmao. That was epic, they deserved it. To bad you didn't have it recorded.

You did it wrong. With the other tank, they probably killed him at 5%...You're supposed to leave as nails spawn...duh

I'm sorry, but that was just one of those "F it, I'm out of here" moments.

But hey, glad to read that at least you listened to the other guy on your next run and managed to clear it.

Danny and I said we were new at the very beginning before I even started moving ><
I said 'So I'm new, strat?' and the other guy started telling us what to do. Whatever though, no hard feelings. I don't know how I died either on the first pull...
iirc someone, idk if it was you or the other guy, asked again if we were new when I was dead on the ground, and that's when people started leaving.

A total waste on people like that. If a player has such a bad attitude with the name calling and swearing etc. I honestly cannot imagine that they're any different in rl, meaning I believe they'll never learn or can understand why anyone actually thinks that it's rude to yell at someone in such a manner. I don't get why they actually take the time to write in chat. When I'm in a party with a (what I consider) bad tank/dd/healer I roll my eyes, say "my goodness" a few times to my cat if it's really horrible and pray that it's over fast. Why others bother insulting and swearing and complaining when at the beginning they didn't even manage a simple "Hello" is beyond me.

I don't doubt that the ones talking all this crap to you deserved it, but in situations like DF, you have to realize that you will never see these people again. I'm willing to bet at least 3-4 of the people you left to die (although if it was 5%, unlikely they wiped) didn't say one word to you.

I've had this happen many times in many games with LFG dungeons, where most of the people don't say anything, but one person talks enough crap to cause the tank or healer to screw over the entire group. You are screwing over 1/2 the group who didn't deserve it because your skin is too thin to look past the immaturity. In DF, just finish it and leave, as there is a very VERY small chance you will ever see them again, and I can guarantee you won't change how that person acts in the future.

In the off chance all seven other people in the group were talking crap as well, disregard this post.

People think there is no penalty for pissing ppl off in the duty finder but lodestone has a char search function and it isn't hard to track people down... I've had a healer that had a fit because the other people had gotten a bit upset at him for running ahead and pulling a bunch of mobs. I joined it in progress and the guy sat there and insulted them and even me who wasn't there at the start. Another person in a darkhold run started freaking on and saying they were reporting us and to enjoy our ban because I went to suicide a few chests and even though we told them not to follow they did anyways. They than pull 8 mobs onto us and call the healer a nub when they die followed shortly by everyone else. We were all level 50 except them which was level 46 or 47 using level 30 gear. I was in darklight so being called a nub by someone like that is just funny. I went and found their profiles on lodestone easy enough.

I used proper grammar, spelling, and so on. No one spoke up about anything different but instead told me to leave and others called me an ebay account. I was called "Retard" and "Gay" and you name it, including Mom bashing and so on. One of them stated "You ebay accounts always make us die 1000x before 1x win, just leave!" Anyways, I'm tanking it like it's the easiest ever, no one dieing or anything, so when it was down to ~5% I said "Ebay this" and left the fight

/rubs the knot on his head where Ifrit clobbered him. You didn't have to leave like that - we were just joshing you. We never did the fight either but didn't want anyone to know! Besides - meant to say Amazon account - not ebay. You intimidated us!

Well done OP! Can't believe people would stoop to that level to insult someone who wanted to make sure he was doing everything right. Wish you had a screenshot, so we could /blist those mofos. But either way, good job on not only making them eat their own words with your tanking ability, but also rubbing salt in their wounds.

This exactly! (except my EX took the cat so i cant roll the eys towards her :/). I know i am elitist for my own standards, but that doesnt stop me to help others or be nice.
All my classes are the same level roughly, so i played content 8 times sometimes more on each class and i know what a class can do or cant do :)
But i would never be rude to anyone. People dont learn if you insult them. They might learn if you bow to the healer for good work, but not to the tank because he has no idea what he was doing back then :)
