    Same thing happens here.. just can't get kicked.

    Just tonight I had an ACN that had never played healer or tank telling me how bad I was, changing my marks, refusing to follow the marks I put up, and just generally being a dbag. My favorite part was being called gimp while having the best gear in every slot but one.

    How many people really want to play healer/tank, get told you suck, your job is easy (see this topic ^) and if you don't do everything perfect you deserve any number of insults. Now bad dps (which these guys almost always are) are free to get away with it.

    I've honestly never really had a problem with people bashing my tanking skills in this game besides an occasional "wtf". Let somebody call me out though, i'll be quick to tell them how many aoes they failed to dodge

    Only the second time I have had it happen to me but if someone who has been tanking for years in various games gets it you can imagine what people are doing to newbies. I got into a DF with a newbie today and he got treated like trash... level 25... tanks are not even needed at that point and they freaked out on him.

    Just leave group , they lose in the end you lose 15 mins they lose 40 mins + . Almost no tank is going to click join a group in progress when they don't have to so the group is over as soon as you leave . Their loss .

    You know there is a fix for that. A very simple fix. Just... switch... tabs... make one for the ones you want to see and leave out party chat. Simple.

    At the very least you can simply click on the gear and uncheck party chat
