How long before you met your first nasty user?

Had a buddy putting together a Garuda EX farming party today. We were short a healer and one guy said he knew a guy. Said guy joins and we start her up. Well, first Shriek, OT has a brain fart and slips out behind the rock too early and gets downed. No biggy right? I mean, it's just the beginning of the fight. No. Healer just goes off. He says "I was told this was a 100% kill party, don't ever invite me to this again". Follow by other things like "you guys are a joke", blah blah blah. Then he just bails. Literally 2 min into the duty after a simple mistake. I was speechless.

Hahahaha this is hilarious, that was me and too bad you're twisting the story
Donen Done asked if I wanted to go and I told him I wouldn't go unless it was 100% kill/farm cus I had other things to do and he told me yes. That tank died to the very first port and then said he has never done it before..how am I rude for leaving something I didn't sign up for? I only got nasty after that bard started talking crap about me wanting to leave. Maybe you shouldnt lie to people you invite GG

Haven't met any yet as most people say "Hi" and never utter another word; at least in leveling DF.
I've perceived plenty of people to be assholes based on playstyle and actions, but they've never really confirmed it by writing.

The other day I meet a nasty player on Hyperion. I so wish I could post their name here because what they did was over the top. To sum it up they told someone in a yell to get their Dad's shotgun and kill themselves.

In real life I used to love tormenting such people. It pisses me off that they get off bullying other people. Usually they have issues on their own, which cause them to react that way.

But in all seriousness, I find people that must troll others, must insult others and must prove they are better, especially on the internet, themselves have major issues in their real life. They are so troubled in real life and pitiful that they have to come online and act it up to get some means of self-worth.

When we meet such people, we must actually must pity them, that the only way they can feel good about themselves is to try to push others down. It is actually a pretty sad thing.

Instead of getting angry with them. We must instead show them love, teach them better and pity their meaningless existence. We should show them, through our actions and our words how much we care, are concerned and feel sad for them. Ever thing they say, we must meet back with love, understanding and sadness in our hearts for their station, situation, problems and issues in their lives that cause them to be like this.

No matter what they do or say. Continue to re-enforce kind understanding, patience and pure concerned pity and sad resonating sympathy towards them.










It is further sad that our concern for them actually drives them crazy. People that bully usually have no internal self worth and hate pity. But we must still do so, our light must shine to every part of their darken soul and bring them back to the light! It is a scared duty, regardless of how they feel. We must be tireless in our efforts, even if they expire from our effort.

I learned, back in WoW, that the best way to avoid nasty and rude comments in groups is to watch the fights, or at least read the strategies involved. Now, before you flame me, hear me out: I was one of those people who used to just queue up for stuff that I had no clue what to expect (WoW) I have to tell you, in Heroic dungeons, it gets you killed, and all sorts of verbal abuse. So applying that lesson here, for example, the HM primals, I first watch the Youtube videos, either the Healer or Tank PoV. I will also read the strats beforehand so I can get a sense of what exactly is going on during the fight. But even with such preparation, wipes, accidents, etc, still happen. Its a part of the game. Don't cry, don't yell, don't be abusive. If you cant play well with others, you have no business on the playground, am I right? One could argue at this point: But I shouldn't HAVE to do research. Well, I can see your point, BUT, lets say that Garuda HM was a exam, a very important test, what have you, which do you think would be better: studying for it, and at least having a general knowledge of the material? Or just going in blind? I have no problems explaining fights and strats at the beginning if someone doesn't know, but you will save yourself and others TONS of anguish and hard feelings simply by watching a 10 min video. A lot of people gripe and complain about having to "carry" others. I don't consider it carrying if the person wipes a couple of times, then that last time makes it through the fight with no problem. You weren't carried, you learned what to do. Id rather wipe several times to ensure you know exactly whats going on, then to rage at mistakes. Although I MUST take issue with folks who continually ignore advice: If I say, kill the green line sister first, here, she is marked, and you are continuing to attack the red line sister, this is a problem. You aren't listening. Am I going to call you a noob and tell you to l2p? of course not. But I am going to keep repeating myself until you get it right. Some people get super touchy if you offer them advice. If someone offers me tanking tips, or healing tips, im absolutely going to listen, and if it works for me, I will thank the person for the info. Unfortunately Roulette DOES create a bad environment for new tanks, because if everyone is in af2 relic and all, and you are just starting out, unless they are patient and understanding, you WILL have hate issues. There is a reason people don't like tanking on this game, I want to level GLD/PLD badly, but hearing nothing but l2p failtank will discourage just about anybody...

Not long after CT is out. Long story short, a healer from another alliance were being impatient and kept on verbally abuse other players who were locked outside because someone pulled when others weren't ready. This happened a couple of times at the first boss while other alliance gave up on even trying to get in as whenever they tried to, someone else pull and in result people gets locked out.

So alliance A and C (the one I was in) just sat outside and chill while alliance B went on how they can 8 man it and didn't need our worthless healers/dps/tanks help. They failed over and over again so they left, we waited for people to refill Alliance B then we cleared out the raid, everybody was happy in the end.

That's all fine and dandy but what if it's new content? I witnessed people bitch because others didn't know the new content from the 2.1 patch....on day one.

I'm one of those people that can't learn from watching a video. There's nothing like experience.

a PS3 with a SSD runs better than the PC version.
