I wouldn't even be mad about this.

Starting Haukke Manor Hard. As usual, I greet the party with "yo". The first reply I get is "Oh how I hate that "yo" " to which I respond "That doesn't really concern me". Ok, maybe I was a little rude, let's see how the run goes. And it goes amazingly! The other BLM is AOEing like a boss, the tank keeps agro like a boss, the healer heals us up. No misshaps, no wipes. We get to the room before the last boss. Tank does a giant pull, dies, we wipe. The tank admits his fault, I say it's not a problem as sh** happens. We go in again. During the pull I cast Thunder III on one of the mobs to get a Thudercloud proc (if I get lucky) and that pulls that one add towards me. Meh, Mana Ward, I'm good. All mobs grouped up, we nuke 'em all. Tank says "it's your own fault if you attack during a pull". I reply with "It was. I never said anything" meaning I didn't blame the tank. Next second I get vote kicked. Dafuq?! O_o"

Technically tanks fault for not actually securing hate but yeah that's sucks

Nice reminds me of my Rav EX DF runs to help a fc member clear it. We both were PLD, the DF grouped us up with 2 WHMs, and 4 MNKs xD

Not quite; there were a few deaths (most of us don't even really play Dragoon beyond leveling it to 50+).

I did ask the entire alliance to direct us to the nearest AoE marker at the beginning though. xD

Forgot to post last night WoD an interesting start off; first mob pull, no one stunned Garms, massive explosion occurred taking half the alliance with it xD After that was a smooth sailing until Ceberus, no one chained it and good old doggie went on a rampage and kill off the whole raids xD Afterward we rush through Cloud of Darkness and clear the run. Best WoD run ever this week for me

Ravana Ex on DF.

I'm put with a group that's entirely pre-made bar one DPS, all from the same FC. The first few attempts aren't too bad and we make it to Final Lib, but it goes downhill from there. The MT's chaotic positioning results in Ravana wiping out the entire party before we even get to the add phase several times, but when I point this out, the entire group immediately leaps to the MT's defence and says it's all my fault, I'm a terrible healer, the AST is practically solo healing, I'm holding them back, etc. etc. Said AST has the reaction time of a drunken snail and their MP bar is usually full while I'm trying to keep everyone alive, but I let it go and ask to be kicked so I can go find another group. Being the mature adults they are, they refuse.

We give it another go and make it to Final Lib again, but the group messes up on prey mechanics (again.) They declare that this is also my fault, I'm the worst healer they've ever had, I'm being carried, blah blah blah, but still won't kick me. At this point I called their bluff and offered to sit out this time and let them fight Ravana without my "interference", since I'm obviously such a dreadful healer and ruining their chances. They try to goad me into healing again with more insults, but I point out that according to them, they'd be more successful without me and refuse. After another ten minutes, they finally give up and try again while I stand on the side. They ended up wiping after twenty seconds.

The group reset, and I apologised heartily for holding them back from their true potential all this time. They all left.
