Please add loot griefing to "Prohibited Activities"

[FireMage]

Exactly this, i'll add the reasons as to why I don't want to go in a static :
Needing a schedule, having to talk to other people and interact with them, organize things, voice chat etc... I don't want any of this except for ultimate content when I go for HC prog and World Race.
I like to just hop on the game join a pf and vibe on the fight with music on whenever I feel like it;

Sure i'd get BiS faster by being in a static, but I prefer having rng loot than feeling forced to play and comply to a schedule, it's just not my cup of tea.
Party finder is used by a lot of players for a reason, not everyone wants to go for a static. Punish griefing or change the loot system.

So you choose to not act in your own self interest. Then you don't get to complain when seeing the outcome of your choices

Toxic player defending toxicity in a video game, how original. Blame the victim not the abuser, right?

Hey, so this is a suggestion/complaint thread because of something that happened yesterday in party finder and it's not the first time i've seen it happen.

Basically yesterday evening I was doing P8S (usual weekly 2 chests) and the random weapon that dropped was GNB, we had a GNB is our party who already had the 635 weapon. Therefore he couldn't roll on it so I tried rolling, so did other players in the party.

The GNB then proceeded to swap his weapon to another, delete his 635 weapon so he could roll "Need" on the savage weapon and grief the 7 players who tried to roll for it.

The problem, with everything like this situation, is proving he did it with evidence to back it up.

Because the FFXIV devs don't allow screenshots or video.

None of us were there to see if they actually deleted it, desynthed it, or whatever so it's just your word.

GMs have logs of items you delete and receive, that plus the chat logs, so they know if someone did it or not.
If you see someone doing it, you can report that player for it and GMs hopefully will take a look and see it happened.

I obviously cannot give full proof on the forums without leaking the player's name and getting banned, but if you search for yourself using Page 2 screenshots, or my excel sheets from my name, or on twitter (there was a thread made by another player from the group) you'll have all the proof you need.
(also, you cannot desynth P8S weapon, only delete)

If it did happen' or not is not the point and I don't care if you believe me or not, people have done this griefing tactic and can do it.
I want it to be fixed or specified as a griefing/punishable offense in prohibited activities, end of story.

I mean you put yourself in the position. Also you have no proof any of this ever even occured

I didn't put myself in any position, the game has a flaw in the loot system that can be fixed by either making changes to it or making it clear it's a punishable offense to intentionally grief players.
Reminder : it's a suggestion thread to fix said issue

Also there is proof, you just didn't bother to read the thread since you came here just to be obnoxious

A bunch of censoring proves nothing. Uncensor and prove it or you have no ground to stand on. Hop to

Thanks, i'm just glad not be in his shoes, must be sad life to live to spend so much time being like this on the internet

Trying to trap people into bans now, aye? That's a new one for you I think.
