    The tank by many is considered the unofficial "leader" of the group in a run. Tolerate it, maybe, put yourself above it, definitely. There needs to be someone "in charge" without leadership its chaos. Running off is not the solution, now the person you just ran from "won" and now they are going to just keep on thinking they can get away with it. Most probably won't stop, people are just a-holes, its trait. But there could be that one person that starts giving someone crap and they don't leave proving to that person their mouth is not accomplishing anything and just give up on it and realize mouthing off is just futile. But thats just me.

    I guess I look at my role differently and try to make it fun for everyone even if there's a loudmouth in the group. Sometimes the reverse psychology works, just agree with them and sometimes they shut up because now they don't know what to say or do. Some people can easily be manipulated. Jedi mind tricks work only on the weak minded fools, but that's usually who's mouthing off anyways.

    The problem with that is that you are connecting the tank role to the parental role or a worker in a company. If I am in a mood I will do so, but this is just a game that I will play and if I am not in the mood and I just want to play, i won't put myself in that situation. I am sorry, but if that were the case raids should be only be leaded by tanks but that is not always the case. Guild members should do and hear what their guildmaster /FC leaders/ must say, but in the game that is not how it works.

    I'm playing a game to have fun. I am not playing a game to work. It is fun for you, have fun working. If thy were friends or a ppl I decide to put up with like raid groups, I must do so otherwise I dont

    Sadly I can't make another post, but as I said in my previous reply. If it is one person I dont care. I just move on and try to finish it asap. I replied to you when u were coming out and defending the whole party. My reaction is to the party attitude.you need to check what I said.

    A friend told me, yesterday, her experience. A tank in bismarch storyline gave instructions and was telling step by step what to do to everybody, but after 3 wipes he left cuz when he was asking who didn't do what they needed and they started to call him dick. My friend is a DPS and she was sad that the tank left cuz of most of the ppl behavior. They wiped 4-5 times after the first three wipes.

    Funny thing is that they were asking each other what was what the previous tank told them what to do. Ppl just overreact and let their emotions take over them and insult other ppl that were trying to help them.

    Far from what I believe. Of course its a game and all about fun or at least it should be. I guess I just see it as, when I do party content its not all about me. Sure its my game and I can play how I want is the usual go to comment. There are 3 other people, or 7 in my party, we depend on each other to do our jobs make the instance go as fast, smooth, fun as possible. My original comment was just about 1 person being a donkey and that I won't just leave using my role as some type of extortion tool that will effect the whole party, people are easily ignored.
