Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent.

This is more of a question than a rant, though it's a rant as well. Can you report people that spam those macros that make up a picture if you squint at them? And I don't mean just once. I mean two people spamming them complete with sound effects. As they were from a different server I don't think I can just blacklist them. But is it something reportable?

If they were spamming them to the point where you can't read chat then I think it is reportable.

Doing the wall so much... I really wish there was a raid version of the fight. So fun. So sloppy.

Then the tank decides to act like a jerk and says things like "You know the nail? The thing I marked with a 1? You need to kill that" and then specifically starts yelling at the thaumaturge for not doing enough.

We kill it next attempt and tank says "Welp bye" and leaves.

Is it really necessary to yell at new players when they don't know all the fights? =/

I want to point out it can be hard to decipher tone through text chat. So whether the mate was being a jerk, "yellin" at them or not, theres a strong possibility he wasnt. You were probably being somewhat cynical at the time. Maybe.

Also you can cross server blacklist now. for future reference and all.

Ever see someone in a roulette playing a job you know rather well and they keep screwing up on the most basic elements of a job and it just feels like nails on a chalkboard?

Happened to me with this one bard: dots kept falling off, never saw them use iron jaws once, whole time they looked like they were either failing at multitasking or they hadn't played their job anywhere outside of Palace of the Dead. Also didn't help either that I was on my baby bard and barely managing dps checks because I had to pull both our weights just to finish them. I mean having to use LB to kill adds and almost having to use it on the sword for the sloppy final boss because of how lacking our combined dps was.

When I died from the second lionshead attack and the dps check was failed, I felt like I had to speak my mind about them when I said it honestly looked like it was the first time on that bard. Of course their friends swore at me and then gave me a warning to boot me immediately before I was kicked from the dungeon.

Did another ex roulette, got Wall again, did fine. Lesson learned that best pugs are groups of complete strangers where no one knows anyone in that group.

It's funny you should say that, because I was in Sohm Al normal as SCH. Things are going fine, we get to 2nd boss, and I'm just prepared for people to ignore the stacking/splitting mechanic as usual.

Cue everybody doing the stacks/splits perfectly, every single time. I just had to pause after the fight was over and ask myself "Did I really just see that happen?" It was almost like we were psychic back there, nobody ran away from a stack, nobody moved wrong, everything was done right. I never knew that was possible, and nobody even needed to say anything!

If they do they will combine it with the Vault and maybe call it Balessar's Vault and the final boss can shout "Sloppy must be purged!" every ten seconds. ^_^ Could also combine the mechanics of the two as well into something you really need to dance through...

Let's see, the other night I was running Dun Scaith as a monk. The ninja used the lb3 just as a majority of our team was down. One healer, the tank, me, ninja. The healer said that they shouldn't waste the lb3 and save it for the healers.

The ninja proceeded to get defensive. Literally called the healer "a f****** c***". Said the lb3 wouldn't have mattered as it wouldn't bring back the entire raid. Then stated that every time we would get one bar they would just use it. I've never seen a vote kick get passed so quickly, ahaha.

The other day my SO and I were playing as our alt twin brother characters and two friends were telling us how adorable our characters were. It's makes me all giggly thinking about it.

How do you do this? I thought you could, but I can't figure out how. Also I don't think you can while a dungeon is in-progress, can you? Cause when I right-clicked on their name all that came up was Report > Report RMT.
