Seems like a lot of these people are doing it for the sake of getting the jollies out of kicking people who do not agree with their thinking, or hoping to see rage.

Story about myself this time:

I've recently started to level WHM from lvl 50 to 60. The problem is I am a SCH main and only healed with that since 3.0 so I have gotten a bit too used to my fairy.
Twice now I've let a tank die because regen had worn off and I was happily spamming Stone II instead of healing. I am really sorry.

Here's one. This one is actually a lot better than some I've posted which isn't a lot. I just don't post here often.

Anyway, I'm starting to lvl my first tank to 60. Got PLD at 50 and WAR at 33. This was with DRK (want it to be my main tank).

Que for lvling roulette. Get Dusk Vigil. My first time tanking a lv50+ dungeon.

It actually went very well. No wipes and I held aggro fine when everyone else was 60. Did my best trying the MP management which I think I did okay with.. And it was a less than 30min run as well. :P

At the end the DRK weapon dropped which I promptly took as well since it was an upgrade for me. I also received all 3 comms. They either were a premade or thought I did good. So yay!

So glad my first tanking experience in lv50+ content went well!

Got Brayflox NM via leveling roulette on my dark knight some days ago and got a party with newbie bonus and three people who were unsynced. Only thing I could complain about this party was the lv34 astrologian not using card buffs or Diurnal (and thus not using Aspected Benefic either), but I didn't say anything, the healing was okay and I had a really bad run prior to this because I asked a dark knight in Haukke NM why they didn't use Darkside and got flamed for this. The DPS were doing their thing pretty well too, and as everyone needed exp and was nice and did okay, I decided to clear the entire dungeon to give everyone decent exp and the newbie their map achievement because I felt like doing something good to nice people.

...The newbie didn't get the map achievement /cry

Halatali, after 1st two group of mobs, I got told to not use Fire II because it was hard for tank to keep aggro.
We ran the dungeon fine with no wipes, but I felt bad cos I was still stealing aggro with just Fire I ><

FC mate later told me I probably should have just stuck to using Blizz 1 lol

Swords? I'm guessing it was swords.

It was swords.

Went to test out my sexy new CPU in Void Ark
when suddenly
Error 90000! Constantly. I was rightfully kicked, it was awful.
Guess I do need an ethernet connection :'( Oh well, setting that up later today.

When the towers come up, I'm in range for two of them, when he fills the floor with poison, I'm already on a platform, when the Foobars spawn, I'll be right there to attack one and drag it if needed, when the orbs spawn, I can take one immediately, and if a puddle does land on me, I have to move to another area anyways with there always being two available platforms to use.

If both platforms on one side of the room get puddles on them, that entire side of the room is screwed.

What I'm getting out of your quote is "but mah deeps, I shouldn't have to move."

More than once I've found myself stuck between two platforms covered in puddles during room aoe. So it's die where I stand or die on either platform in range. It just boils down to players thinking they're special enough to not worry they're making it harder on other players. "It doesn't bother me to screw you up, so screw you."

This has happened to me a couple of times, yup. #meleelyfe :/

It's gotten to the point where I go into that boss fight and say on alliance: Don't get puked on, don't get pooped on, don't camp platforms, don't ignore adds. If you do all that, we're gonna get through this one just fine. (But seriously, that boss is gross lol)

Went into a Ex roulette and got fractal. I'm a PLD, playing with WHM, BLM and MNK. All three are building hate up like crazy. I'm really struggling keeping hate after the first pull. I lost hate a few times, but pulled them back in quickly. After we kill the mob, I tell them, "Wow! You guys sure hit hard! I had one hell of a time holding aggro!"

Then I look up and see I forgot shield oath. I turn it on and then say "Opps, I'm an idiot". Rest of the dungeon went just fine.
