Tales from the Party Finder - share your fun and suffering!

[NekoMataMata]

In a lengthy Shinryu Ex Doggo farm. There's nothing mechanical to complain about but the whistle drops are incredibly spread out and people are getting tired. 30 chests in someone asks if the party wants to farm snakes instead.

The person asking got their whistle(we got 3 so far). Of course the 3 people who got theirs vote yes and one other person votes yes too. So yay, I spent 30ish kills of a boss farm helping people farm mounts who found a way out to decide not to return the favor. Tyranny of the majority at its finest.

You can always leave. You should have.

If they bring up some sort of social contract about the rule of majority, because it's a FC activity or you play together often or whatever, point out that "farm" means getting a mount for everyone and that's a social contract too. If they are your friends and give you crap for not helping them get a second mount after you got zero, they are not your friends.

I did leave. Just sucks that I had to. I don't think it was a FC. It's just 3/7 people had their whistles and wanted to move on, and 1 person who didn't have theirs decided to vote with them.

The funny thing is that the PF for what they wanted to farm immediately went up with only 3 people as soon as I left, cause apparently 3 other people left too.

Doesn't stop me from fuming over it. They could have lied to our faces and said they had other things to do and even thrown up their own PF for what they wanted to do after leaving but instead they actually tried to drag 4 of us who had yet to get their drop into farming something else for them.
