Looks like it's not the first time they quit. That "redacted to delete game" was from a thread they started in 2021 saying "Why I am quitting the game".

Yeah I didn’t look too far into it. Not much for lodestone snooping and such. But that’s very telling of their character

From old thread:

One thing I will say is this: you had a popup come up multiple times asking you if you wanted to port into the boss fight. Why you didn't take the teleport, I don't know, but you were given this option (multiple times, might I add. 15 seconds into EVERY boss fight it asks you if you wish to teleport.) and you didn't take it. In your teammates eyes, you could've been AFKing for no reason. Did you, perhaps, bring up "Hey I don't know how to get back to you guys?" If not: that's on you.

So the first time they had a bad experience which I'm guessing involved getting lost in the Praetorium. -> deleted game

Now they had some kind of bad experience healing. -> deleted character (as it doesn't show up as their avatar anymore)

Consider it a learning experience.

Don't attack mobs until the tank stops. (not universally true, but takes additional learning to know when and how to not pull aggro while running)
Turn off your tank stance if there is another tank using theirs.

Unlike your experience however, no one blamed us, and I don't think people blaming new tanks for something like that is a very common experience, it just seems to be Praetorium that's ran with this 'speedrunners' efficiency.

Seems like their other thread was saying people were harassing them for being a new tank. And now it's people harassing them for being a new healer. But it also seems like they refused to rez and participate, if the quote above is anything to go by. Hmmm, it appears that context does matter.

Still doesn't matter to the question whatsoever. Context matters to the GMs alone. Why it matters to anyone here beyond simple curiosity is beyond me.

This is why I’m cynical of peoples claims. But I guess it’s an egg meet face ordeal for others

Semantics example:
Person A; “put your toys away”
person B; “they’re not toys, they’re action figures”

Not example of semantics:
You; “they said nothing”
Me; “they literally said something”

Yes, well done you have managed to illustrate a very basic concept of what would be considered a semantic. Now allow me to elaborate for you...

Semantics is the study concerned with deriving meaning in language, how words, phrases, and sentences convey meaning, now, if this implication is lost on you -- The original poster is making a request for advice on how to report people and not a factual claim. Now, you have been playing with semantics here as your sole argument to their post is they were making a claim (Which involves making a 'factual' statement or opinion and not one seeking advice on how to report someone) - Which they were not. It would be playing with semantics to say there were trying to assert a claim.

If you struggle to comprehend that "Players are harassing new healers" - Is not a claim in the literal sense then the onus is on your reading comprehension more than anything.

So yes, you were playing with semantics, and this is on the basis that you seem to struggle to make the distinction between a claim and a request for advice. You were using their language/post in a dishonest and deliberate way in a thinly veiled attempt to win argument.
