The New (and insanely funny) troll move... (not really new or trolling but lol)

Ok ok, so its not really trolling or griefing, but people feel trolled and griefed by it and its really funny...

So last night was the 2nd time this week that I've seen someone complaining in /shout about joining a duty finder group of 3 super hardcore role players that wouldn't break character the entire dungeon. The complainer wanted to rush/speed run, and these 3 kept saying things like:

"My magic is weakened, Paladin, I must rest for we jump into a hasty conflict"

or

"Take heed, young Paladin, for behind this wall are demons!"


I just couldn't stop laughing. I'm not a big role player, but I personally wouldn't mind the change of pace if I joined a random DF dungeon full of RP. Some people feel so butthurt by it though, and its just hysterical.

I'd love it, I love joining in on weird things all the time. This would be like candy land to me. :D

I would SOOOO get into the RP with them if that happened to me. I think that's great. :D

I guess it depends on how it's done. My FC were telling me about some guy that started RP at the last boss in some dungeon and he went on about how some dark forces was preventing him from healing and he let everyone die lol.

I personally wouldn't mind any of it lol.

+1 for adding "Let's roleplay!" onto the Party Finder checkboxes

That would certainly make for more interesting runs

Very interesting!

I would not mind a party like that, but if that happens I hope one of them speaks cat.
Because all they'll get from me is meow.

OMG absolutely!!

That is awesome! If I ran into them I'd join in on the fun.

gawd.. i would gladly take role players over meowing miqotes...

It would be funnny, if two people are talking inone theme and some guy pops in with another thing.

Healer:"Beware, young archer, beyond this purple line, there lives a Monstrous beast the summons lightning to its aid"

Archer:"i reckon, i shoot from 4 o'clock to avoid the lighting trajectory while calling in air support"

Had a Scholar in Cutter's Cry typing annoying things in all caps, constantly. Didn't bother to votekick out because he was still doing a good job with healing. I have more trouble with ppl entering lv 30+ dungeons with no job.

You know from the replies here and my own thinking, I can't see many having issues with this. Besides that person who complained about it shouldn't expect a speed run through duty finder anyway.

Besides, you could make your own fun with your "For Sparta!" shouts.

... or even more obscure trivia like "I kick ass for the Lord!"

As long as they do not have annoying macros much like the ppl in ffxi who had something like...

"By the light of Altana I will heal your wounds and bring peace back into thine heart"

for EVERY cure or any other action they did, whether it be weaponskill or job ability and worse yet they would have it in /say so everyone around them would hear plus add a sound effect for everything they did just so the pt wouldn't be left out. Blacklisted and kicked more than a few or these ppl over the years.

But if it was just standard rp it would have been fun times, except for forcing a wipe like a previous poster mentioned, that takes it a bit to far

Would love to run into this some time. Would spice up this repetitive grind fest.

Where do I sign up for this?

Man, I'm gonna macro different exlamations into every action. People will love me for it

Win! :D
/10chars

This sounds like fun!

Oh, I used to cringe at those silly heal macros "I am bestowing the gift of healing to %t"!!

Although in EQ we did have lots of macros that just plain said "Casting CH on %t"... of course those were the days of CH rotations...

Sounds like a fun way to alleviate the boredom of tome farming.

I would love that. Would certainly break up the monotony. Heck, I may just do it tonight!

This is amazing. Now I know what to do when I'm bored.

Please pardon me, random 3 people that queue up when the dark forces are preventing me from healing.

Once joined a DF for Cutter's Cry... was paired with a guy called Thunder Mage. As you may surmise, the dude refused to cast anything other than Thunder. He insisted it was the only magic he had learned. /wrist

While I think this is awesome...it just kills my brain to see people speaking in bad Elizabethan English. At least use accents already in the game if you're going to do that :P

As for the dark forces remark...I could actually forgive that guy for the wipe. I love creative things like. Much better than the overused Leeroy Jenkins.

Absolutely would support this feature.

I wouldn't mind this at all! Especially when it is a dungeon you ran several times before.

Remember being in a DR Group (Sastasha) with a tank who had a quiz-macro with questions related to XIV. Was a pretty cool run even though the other two in the group didn't try to answer the questions.

Somehow, I feel this is relevant:

Ah... Boost macros.

Don't forget "Cut my life into pieces, this is my <Last Resort>!" .. you know, what with all the Emo wanna be Dark Knights. (Not the boss ass one's like I was)

I have to agree with the people said it before me--- it would definitely be an interesting spice to the Tome farming! :D

We are playing a fantasy game, proof being the fact that "Fantasy" is part of its name. I'd love to come across RP'ers like that, trolling or not! Would be even better if someone was complaining about it too. I mocketh thee, ye varmint. /lol

That is so Funny. The moment I read this topic I searched all over looking for this exact thing. The macro is famous and even years after I left FF11 it still is in my memory and make me laugh

I ran into a monk that macro'd grunts into his skills. I think his combo went like:

> Earhh!
> Urahh!
> Hrahh!
> Eeahh!

Annoyed the crap out of the blm, I thought it was funny.
