Solution to the Cutscene Skipping Dilemma

[Arkista]

How about no.... Everyone shouldn't have to suffer because of a few that get told to skip CSs. I've only seen this happen a few times where someone tells a player to skip CSs, I even spammed the heck out of Castrum/Praet @ launch. Now it doesn't matter if someone watches a CS (didn't even matter then). People need to grow a pair and tell whoever is telling someone to Skip CSs (cause its their first time) to stfu. I've been to a few Castrum/praet post 2.1 where someone tries that crap and I'll tell them to keep going and don't worry about it. People are getting so over geared for that content its crazy how fast things go. I've had so many parties where we managed to kill (???boss) before vanishes to cast Ultima, I think parties can manage to carry 1-3 players while they watch CSs.

Most of the time I ask who is new or I can just tell by a players HP.


Now what I do have a problem with is some lazy players who pretend to be new and watch CSs so they can get carried and not have to do any work. Had a SCH do this last week, Didn't notice until 3rd boss in Praet and by that time it was to late to vote kick him because as soon as we zoned he grabbed the last 3 bosses when they loaded.

I got both types of runs :
=>The one new players say "idc go on I'll watch and redo bosses later" and we ravaged the dungeon without them even going out of CS

=> the one we let them watch and experiment fights. 2 players tried to rush (tank and dps), we let them do, wipe, and locked them out when they tried to raise and come back. then they raged out and we cleared the dungeon (full CS and 2 new players to whom we explained everything) in under an hour.

always fun times ^^
