Holding party hostage unless they obey you is a reportable action.

True. But the post was satire.

Yeah he was joking I think but it does happen and it's a really petty thing to do if you think someone is a harassing you vote kick them in most cases the party will agree to kick them if not report them and suck it up and complete dungeon or quit and take the penalty.

My bad, hard to tell sometimes if someone is serious

Just watched Selli spend 20 minutes fighting Ser Charibert. Pretty sure she and the tank were out DPSing both the DPS by a mile. MNK was spamming Bootshine + True Strike and the BRD wasn't using WM or DoTs.

Got stuck with an AST in WoD who only used Diurnal Sect Aspected Helios. Is this the thing now with ASTs and WHMs to just use their aoe regens and nothing else? Cause if it is I don't like it.

I swear Selli has the most unfortunate luck in existence. :/

That moment when your doing Weeping City as SMN. No other casters in party. Really wanted Casting Chest piece. Instead rolled on Boots on 2nd boss. Chest piece drops on 3rd boss. *I'm weeping* I ended up getting the boots instead because the chest piece didn't drop at all last week, so I didn't get any gear for that week, and I just wanted something. ;_; I left after seeing that it dropped; I had already gotten my Penny/Matter earlier and I can be replaced quick, so it doesn't matter. Whelp. Anyway, hopefully next week, I get it... Sometimes I just hate my luck. Run went great however.

Had a Library run with a Scholar who was first-timer.

And tank I had seen before, and didn't much care for in a previous run either because of tank's attitude and movement.

Running back and forth constantly, spinning mobs left and right, making it extremely hard to land trick attack! Quite vexing.

Anyway, decided to hang in there.
Things are going okay, but Scholar dies early on first boss (Demon Wall).
Tank then curses and becomes angry.

It's the scholar's first time. Give him a break!

Then things go well except I have trouble landing trick attack because tank spins mobs so much. Used Shadewalker 4 times because tank had trouble generating enmity, even though I only attack tank's target.

Finally at last boss, Scholar dies again.

It's okay, for me. I don't care. It's his first time. What is an extra 5 minutes?

Then I also made a stupid mistake (got hit by 2 orbs that were near each other. Oops). Already had low health though because scholar died, but still, my mistake.

Tank flips out. Cursing and telling us we've been in their "for ages" and we are "depressing".
But really, the run was normal speed. And one DPS was still 59 and not putting out too much.

We run back to boss and scholar asks us to wait 1 minute.
Tank gets angry again and begins emoting in succession. Casts Stoneskin on us. (But not himself???)

Scholar is gone literally only 30 seconds, but tank still is having a fit.

I just kept thinking. "If this fellow gets so angry and frustrated with such a minor thing, how can he handle REAL problems in REAL life?"
My guess is that it must be impossible for him.

Having a healer die in the game on his first time in dungeon is not big deal. There are MUCH bigger things in life to worry about.
Apparently, this tank doesn't think so.

Anyway, can't we have some way to block players in other servers. I don't want to put up with this bad tank's attitude and spinning all the mobs. But I also don't want to take 30 minute penalty and make other people wait for another DPS. Especially during daytime hours when many people aren't running dungeons.

...Except with that super amazing boyfriend though. ... Right...? RIGHT?
