To blacklist or not to blacklist

Also, are you implying that you are boss at ifrit or something?
Did you never die at ifrit?
I'm sure you die all the time on ifrit.
Go do something else with your time....

i don't make a new excuse each time. You clearly have earned a spot on my mental blacklist.

You said it Rokien!

I have only one person on my Blacklist, for this very reason.

I was the noob that died consecutively at Ifrit. Why? Because I couldn't play this game for the two weeks following Ifrit Primal Patch as I was away during winter break. When I got back, everyone had so much experience with Ifrit that they were completely intolerant towards me asking questions or dying, to the point of blaming me for their failures, Ousting me from their party, replacing me, and then dieing yet again like the sack of losers they truly are.

I got refused from a number of Ifrit parties because word had spread that I couldn't avoid an eruption and was a big drag on the party. One such lalafell who lacked the decency to make up an excuse straight up told me "you suck dude, you are a noob, nobody wants you in their parties" and this earned him the sole spot on my Blacklist.

One day, someone finally told me to lower my out of game FFXIV Config Graphics/Shadow/Background details from standard to "low" so as to decrease the lag I was experience, and it worked! I dodged eruptions without the slightest problem and now I rarely die at Ifrit. Actually, I rarely do Ifrit, because I got my 7 weapons and people now ask for me to join cus they know I can top their parsers as a THM and/or solo heal on my CNJ, AND I give them totems.

Moral of the story: don't judge people based on their performance, especially at Ifrit. Everyone's been through it: dieing consecutively, unable to dodge eruptions, miss timing nukes etc. EVERYONE. Don't act like an elitist prick. Instead of blacklisting a member of your community for not knowing what to do, try and point them in the right direction and make them stronger.

Other than that, It's your blacklist. Do whatever you want. I don't think you should be looking for other members of the lodestone forums to tell you what you should or shouldnt do.

1) I guess I didn't make it clear. I just get angry with people who are not honest. Instead of saying they have tech problems or they don't know what to do, they make up dumb excuses every time they die or for killing the party. That is in tolerable.
2) I was trying to get a general consensus of how people thought about blacklisting in a round about way.

I will work with a person and do my best to help them understand what to do, but I will not stand for people who do not know what to do and not ask for help or do a primal 3 times and become experts and start wiping the party because they know it all. Better yet, the poor sap that won't admit their failures but make excuses or blame others for their downfall. Call me an elitist jerk, but I just try to get stuff done and correctly.

1. LOL you need to get better at ifrit noob, if you wipe with one person dieing! You can easily take ifrit down with 5 people. That leaves 3 people dead. If you let one person effect your group that much........ well, I think the problem isn't them, it's you.
2. Most of the people said you need to chill out, soo chill out!~

Your words anger me. Generally if one person dies and has hate it coulf mean potential trouble with others in the same spot until the person is raised. I never said it causes wipe or defeat, but could lead to defeat. I too have done Ifrit with jobs that are lol worthy just so they can get the win.
You call me a noob at Ifrit? I play that shit naked, sell my totems and make killer money.
