Having problems beating (or getting to) T9? Here's a tip!

i had a guy join my t5 learning PT as a warrior yesterday and asked if he could DPS(he was decked out in melded wolfram gear), as in, he wanted to take up a DPS slot as a warrior and still have 2 other real tanks. when i not so politely kicked him from my party he thru a big tantrum about how "i didnt even give him a chance"

heres the thing, tanks need to tank, first and foremost. if you come up with some great scheme to turn your tank into DPS thats great. but dont join parties with the intention of performing another role than the one you queued for or joined the PF for. you are taking up a slot that could be used be someone who actually wants to perform that role

dont get me wrong, the guy in my t5 group and the guy the OP is talking about are probably cool people with interesting ideas, i just think those kinds of things should be saved for grouping with friends and messing around. dont force your experiments on randoms in the DF or on people in the PF who are just trying to get a simple clear

Gee, I wonder why he "thru a big tantrum."

Amazing the gall some people have here; the fact the guy's tantrum was about how he wasn't given a chance to dps war when invited as a tank would be all I'd need to know I made the right choice in kicking him "without giving him a chance".

The fact that he decided to throw a small tantrum himself and kick the tank because he suggested trying something unorthodox was not the right choice. He could've easily been polite, said something to the effect of, "Hey. Sorry, but I don't think that will work. Can you switch to MT/OT instead?" and let the person answer for himself. If he chose to be an asshat and threw a tantrum over being asked POLITELY to MT or OT, then by all means kick him from the group. Stop thinking swine-like, non-diplomatic and clearly antisocial behavior is an excuse to paint yourself as a victim when the issue here is you, not the person asking kindly to try something different.

he didnt ask politely, he asked me if he could jointhe group as a war and just started barking orders. it wasnt until we got into the instance itself where he said "ohhh wheres the other tank?? im here to dps" when i told him that we have been working hard on our clear and didnt want to spend the time f**king around he tried to insult me by saying shit like "my FC sells these clears its your loss i just want to help blah blah blah" he then went on to blast myself and PT in shouts in mor dhona

so ya if that doesnt warrant being kicked from the PT and then subsequently being added my blacklist then i dont know what does

If warriors are dealing more damage than your dps players, your dps players either suck or they are severely undergeared compared to the warrior.
