Dishonest Thordan's Bird farm by Richard Villenuve

Party Finder was recruiting for Thordan's Bird Farm and said don't roll if you die. After 3 runs, the Round Lanner Whistle dropped and the loot was mastered looted to himself and then disbanded the party. I didn't die and didn't get to roll. This dishonestly left a very bad ffxiv experience and I hope it's not the norm in some communities. Beware this can happen!!

If you have it all screen shotted I think that runs under the fraud section of the ToS.

Even though I disagree, there's this rule where you must not publicly disclaim a player's name, even with proof. Be wary of that. It is probably safer that you remove mention of the player's name.

I suggest you contact the support directly ingame. The only time I've done that, I was contacted by a GM within minutes.

System > Support Desk > Contact Us

While I'm sure plenty appreciate the PSA about this PoS player, the forum has a strict policy on "naming and shaming." I would edit out the names of your post, and then follow-up with a GM for a report. I'm not sure what will happen, but reporting may make you feel a bit better about it. Maybe everyone will get lucky and this player will be suspended.

But yeah, definitely take out all the identifying info in your post before you're in trouble yourself.

Thanks, I've taken out the name and will be filing a in-game case. I already feel better. I just needed to vent it off.

I have found that when the party leader is lootmastering a bird farm, prob not a good idea to stay, as unfortunately, this system gets miss-used too much and the temptation for some to just take the bird is too great.

Be sure to also remove the name on the screenshot.

Also, if you're in a lootmaster party doesn't it say so at the start of duty? Probably should have left at that point if it wasn't agreed on going lootmaster.
In any case, file a report, best of luck with it, hope you get a response.

This is does, no one should have been surprised.

Sadly you learned the hard way to never trust lootmaster

As for reporting, no harm trying but... I'm pretty sure acts like this isn't rule breaking. You can lie and be dishonest all you want as long as you're not hacking or abusing chat/hate related rules.

Could be completely wrong on that... would love someone to show proof otherwise

You are wrong. GMs will look at logs and take action.

As I asked before... is there proof of this? Gladly accept it for what it is if that's true, I've just never seen it and know most games go "oh well", especially ffxi

I see no party leader, I see no disband
All I see is a whistle being distributed and name shaming the person who got it. Your explanation doesnt line up with your pic.

You're bird farming Thordan, and this is your FIRST bad experience? You got all the rest of the loot. I think you belive you got hosed on the whistle and think posting this on the forums is some how going to help you.

Guess what? It's not.

BorisDaBlade,
Sorry for the lack of preliminary screenshots. I took this screenshot after I left the dungeon and the party had disbanded. I appeared back in Idyllshire all alone without a party and instantly felt swindled. I was more in shock than anything. Its not so much that I care about getting a Round lanner. I love this game, and love the appealing graphics and gameplay and its super fun! I’ve been in tons of learning parties and wiping. I been in farm parties where I didn’t win a roll for anything and I had been completely satisfied with all if it. They were all good experiences. This was an obvious con that was setup to deceit other players. The way the other party members typed and played made it seem like they are in the same free company. I’ve taken the advice of making an in-game petition. Does anyone know how I can delete this post? I can’t find it anywhere. Thanks.
