Tank entitlement vs group entitlement

[Gemina]

look, man, if you'd rather cherrypick than use basic reading comprehension, thats on you not on me. you asked for where i saw differing playstles and where it said the party is allowed to remove other players they dont wish to play with and i gave it to you. heck, the third one literally says verbatim "this feature is in place for a party to collectively decide whom they wish to play with."

personally, i dont really care what those players think. they can report at their leisure if they get kicked, if something happens as a result then it happens. but in my personal experience it doesn't.

my entire stance in this near 50 page thread is "if the party doesnt want to play with you, they dont have to. if they ask you to try something and youre unwilling to attempt it, you shouldnt be surprised that they may decide to kick you." youre applying weird motivations to me that i havent said. never said anything about requiring healer dps and honesty havent said anything about big pulls other than in the OP's context (which again boils down to working with your party if theyre asking you to do so).

What are you even talking about? Don't use arguments such as, "if you can't use basic reading comprehension" if you, yourself are incapable of such. You stated that the kick feature is a tool to remove a party member via majority rule, and asked you to provide something that validates this as anything more than just your opinion. You were unable to do so. I'm not cherrypicking. I'm providing sources and facts. A GM's inability to act does not prove that this system is being used as intended.

You basically came here and said the cure for having anxiety as a tank is to not tank at all. At least not for randoms. This couldn't be more dismissive of the issue at hand. You then come back and say that you are not saying that anyone has more or less right to use the duty finder. If I'm confused, then it might have something to do with your contradictive statements and not my inability to comprehend them.

If your whole stance is if the party doesn't want to play with you, they don't have to; then that's fine. I have no quarrel with that or with you. I completely understand that this is your opinion. And for the record, I didn't bring up big pulls and healer DPS because you stated them yourself, but because they are the crux of the expectations in these discussions. I should not have put them in the same response to you. That was not necessary and for that I do apologize.

my responses to you were not the first time ive posted in this thread by a long shot. my main point has been its better to split up if the fact the two parties arent having a good time with each other than to forge on together miserably.

re: my post about tanxiety. it was not that you cannot use the duty finder if you are uncomfortable. merely that if it causes you so much stress that it impacts your experience negatively, you shouldnt. video games are for enjoyment. sometimes stress is good. sometimes its not. if youre not having fun doing whatever role youre doing, dont do it.

"Although this feature is in place for a party to collectively decide whom they wish to play with . . ."

So.... the feature (kicking) is in place for a party to collectively (via majority rule) decide whom they wish to play with (remove party member)

Are you trolling, or did you just not read the GM messages fully?
