Pulling During Cutscene

[MaxCarnage]

Lie about what?


Umm, me answering my phone is me choosing not to participate. It's fine, though, because the intention of my choice to not participate wasn't to grief my team.

It's the same with the cut scene; if your intention is only to wait until everyone is ready. Like, for instance, if you're in an EX raid and half a ready check doesn't pass, but a DPS runs in and pulls the boss anyways. No one's obligated to run in with him.

Goji, being afk 'cause you're answering the phone does not, in any way, equate to being at your computer, or holding your controller, and not pressing your buttons. Outside influences are excusable. Real life will always come before a game. But if you are not pressing your buttons because you want it to be "fair" for cutscene viewers, and you put yourself on this righteous pedestal, that is reportable. Ty.

So, if I get up and walk away from my keyboard to do something while waiting it won't be reportable then?

You're adding caveats to the rules that don't exist. Maybe I was at my keyboard but got momentarily distracted chatting with my FC; not bannable.

Whether or not it's breaking the ToS depends 100% on intent; not your proximity to a controller or keyboard, or whether your reasons for not participating exist inside or outside of the game.

What are you trying to prove here, Goji? Are we going to talk in circles all day? Sure, there are loopholes to be in the clear for sabotaging. And if you go to those lengths to get around getting in trouble for purposefully not participating, it really shows what kind of person you are. Not participating when someone pulls, not playing the job you queued up for, is griefing. It is reportable. It has gotten people banned. But sure, you're the good guy. Keep moral grandstanding. I really see what that person was calling you out for.
