    To be that person, the chat itself isn't entirely helpful. You ask a question, which he doesn't respond to, then it descends into talking about him as if he's not there and "trying to scare him" about future runs. If you had instead just left a quick message, explaining the benefits of shield oath, this would have been better. "Hey, quick tip! Shield oath has such and such benefit while in party " And then leave it alone.

    I admit, I would be truly happy if I had the chance to have a second to give him a proper explanation of enmity and the skill itself. But sadly, this person was just happy about to pull mobs by mobs and giving yet no response. How do you expect to give someone explanations if you dont even know if the person understands english or does even read the chat/ignore it entirely. I also have a job to do inside a dungeon and as well as I do not want to waste my time talking to a wall.

    All Im saying is, these players result in getting votekicked later on and then come to the forums and argue why they got kicked from the duty. Coincidence, I wonder?

    I agree with that and since the OP told the person to not touch the potion or "deinstall" the game (always thought it was uninstall but ok) , maybe he should take his own advice after we have read the very helpful chat messages they are so politely threw at the clearly new tank, trying to be funny?

    Sorry my bad, corrected.

    Edit: I do admit, I may of pulled the topic with the jump potions way to far from the main reason here. It doesnt change the fact that some player attitude is wrong. It doesnt also change the fact that post potion users are either returning players, new players and probably people who dont have time to play/lazy to level. In fact, our veteran/regular players know what they're doing, or atleast know how to communicate, while many new players reject help from the outside.
    I also admit my first post isnt informativ as much. But if you guys read the following comments, Im sure you'll get a better idea of the situation. I perhaps didnt choose a wise title, I cant change it as well. The real problem yet exists (yes as many said,its not only potion users but still). I will remove my last sentence as well. I do not tend to start a flame war, nor I do expect any sympathy. I want to point out that being "nice" and "helpful" isnt always working. And afterwards people complain in chats why they get booted from the duty.

    says the hypocrite that calls a new player snippy over a run in "old content" when they were rude to said new player.

    "vets" are just as bad i've asked people repeatedly to throw up their enmity reducers as i see their aggro almost steal it from tanks. NA datacenters are infamous for lack of communication, and only care about "quick runs". we need to get out of the "must go fast" mentality and the "tome stones farm" mentality and wake up that realization that communication matters.
