DPS who pull mobs

Maybe the tank accidently dragged and dropped his AOE spell off his bar or switched his bar. Maybe dropping his stance was a misclick. The fact a GM has to search for an entire dungeons battle logs and deduce what happened is absolutely overwhelming. The reason why GM's don't tell people the results and that they are only looking into it is to make players feel satisfied it's getting GM attention. There's a reason vote kicking and leaving a dungeon is an option. GM's are not omnipotent and going to be able deduce small things like a tank purposely letting a DPS die from not hitting his AOE combo based off of combat logs. It's just not realistic, when they are probably understaffed and underpaid and need to get through tons of more reports so they are going to only look for obvious indicators.

In a perfect world those tanks would be punished, I honestly wish they were, I just don't see how that's at all a realistic expectation.

CTRL+F homie, CTRL+F. No one knows what kind of tools GMs have to but if malicious rescueing is reportable and taken seriously no reason they can't find something like the drop of a tank stance followed by a death across the whole dungeon or the ceasing of AOEs in a given time frame.

Also tbh how would someone remove their AOE combo and not notice from the very beginning? If it's really a hotbar issue, that wouldn't prevent them from trying to grab aggro off people with ranged and voke.

I've had a healer friend do way worse in a dungeon. I was once playing a DPS with my healer friend in Aurum Vale, and the tank wasn't doing AOE attacks properly to hold mobs and let my healer friend die at least 3 times. After the healers third death, the tank told my friend to stop doing DPS because he was pulling aggro from him. After that my healer friend freaked out on the tank and refused to heal him letting him die at least 5 times in retaliation, he stopped DPS'ing and only focused on healing, he kept his mouth shut and we all made it to the final boss room after having to revive the tank after every pull. The tank ended up reporting my healer friend for griefing, and he got in absolutely zero trouble for it.

Like I've said over and over again, GM's can't tell the difference between incompetence and malicious play style with a battle log. Sometimes you get tanks who don't know how to hold aggro with AOE combos because they are just that incompetent. People who do stuff maliciously like my friend should be punished, I've said this repeatedly, but your expectations of GM's getting justice is just way too high. There's a reason we don't get information back on what happens to the people we report.
