That isn't rare at all. People tend to blow up in this game if someone pulls early. Kicks and kick threats are fairly common.

In my personal experience people rarely lash out when someone pulls a boss early. It takes a second for it to register something's happening but eventually they catch up. Open world hunt marks on the other hand? Oh boy. lol I was actually running Puppet's Bunker a few days ago and accidentally pulled the first boss. Dropped my controller and my X button happened to get pressed on the way down. One of those weird things. I apologized and we went about our attempt. One of the other groups wiped, and then it was a cascade of unfortunate events afterwards. Only one person commented about my early pull, saying it was my fault. They were quickly reminded, however, of what one of the other Alliances did not do which resulted in the wipe of the entire raid. They didn't kill their add fast enough, because most of them got blown off right before it spawned. So...not my fault. I felt bad for pulling early, but I took solace in knowing that I didn't cause the wipe. I was actually surprised someone said anything at all.

Think it's just the normal one if it's still an ACN (who can keep another player alive - don't think Physick at lvl 50 is going to save much more than paper cuts if was T-T hard) and one player says they're still really new. The Cthulhu wannabe is on the Eternal Calm platform at the end (of normal).

Also, @Malmstrom: I get you're angry and/or upset, but Awha's first response to you is correct, and I concur: please edit your post and remove the names. It's not worth getting yourself into bother over and potentially getting even more negative repercussions from the incident.

That is my gut reaction, but trying to play it out I do not see how it would be much an issue. So prob was a just a mountain out of mole hill situation.

I am reminded of a few times.. There was this tank in DR, a few weeks ago (I haven't been playing the game at all), who was pulling immediately and people were arguing in chat the whole run. Saying to report him, not to heal him, "don't esuna him", etc. It was pretty ridiculous.
Sometimes I pulled early in DR, and got yelled at. There was this one time the tank was doing egregious length countdowns, or saying they were gonna pull at a specific time on the timer... I just pulled.. because that is.. unnecessary.

Really, for me, whether it's me or someone else people get REALLY mad, really prevalent here on Primal.

There's a difference between trying to keep things orderly and simply taking too long. That tank in DR with the cooldowns and timers was making it take longer than it needed to be. lol I would have done the same thing you did, to be honest.

Only way I stop for CD refresh is if the healer looks to be huffing and puffing to keep me upright. If the Healer is struggling, I'll spread the fights put a little more so my CDs and their mana can take it. I finish a pull and they have 80%+ mana and everyone is upright...its on to the next group, unless I get a request to slow it down.

Well I suppose it was only a matter of time before I had something to add here. It was not terrible, nothing to make anyone cry or laugh. I am a pretty new player. Just did Haukke Manor, for the first time. Killed the second boss and everyone started disappearing. I am looking around wandering if there is something I am supposed to click or something when I hear the fight music start up. So I start to panic and run back through the dungeon until someone said to cast return. So I did, and then there was a message asking if I wanted to port to where the group was who had already started to fight the last boss. I click it and I get there. The fight goes fairly well and we don't wipe or anything. So this perhaps is not something really worthy of this thread. I only mention it because it was the first time one of the other players died while I was tanking. I always take that as a personal blow.

I was amazed that I got two commendations out of that run.

That first one always gets you. Haukke's last fight can get a bit chaotic sometimes and bodies can and will hit the floor. As for the two comm's I find that Healers and Tanks as long as it looks like you're actively trying to do your role, you'll wind up with a com. or two. In my case Just did Ravana(story) for on this character for the first time, we wiped the first time and then I was asked to MT Ravana. We get it done and I wound up with 4 comms, but felt like I should have had none and it should have gone to the healers.

This guy was wanting to have us wait FOREVER every pull, literally we would stand around for a good bit.. THEN there would be a countdown. The first boss he wanted us ALL to wait around 45+ (iirc) seconds for :00 on the timer! I was just sitting here looking around like, "umm, but everyone is just standing around, and is definitely ready..." It was unbelievable! Like I get what they were trying to do, but it was EXCESSIVE. Honestly, I'm more baffled I was the only one pulling early! I was the one getting berated in party chat..

It's moments like this that make me want to not play this game with any of you horrible, horrible people. I'm solo 99% of the time because I can't even play the game without things like this happening when other people get involved. All I want to do is play with people and have fun, and I have such horrific social anxiety issues that grouping with people and playing with them is a massive challenge for me, and when I'm forced to group with people for roulettes or dungeons or whatever and people like this are around, it makes me feel confused and upset.

I'm never joining a FC. I'm never finding a static. I'm never running with people unless I absolutely can't avoid it. Some of you people are so horrible.

I don't want to sound mean, but you are playing an mmo, this stuff happens. On rare instance I run into simular situations where you just can't deal with it. Have you asked friends to play with you or make an fc?
