Attitudes and Promoting a friendlier server

[Shmunkster]

I agree. I try my best to be helpful and friendly to people who ask questions, and tips when we are having a rough time. And I type a little "sry, my bad" if I accidently pull or screw up (I am aware when I royally do). But sometimes there are just knob jockys out there.

It seems ST is the place for mentalists.
I was doing a run the other day and the second chest the Healer robe dropped. Me and the other WHM rolled. I got it. After that he just kept tying "You suk" and "Your bad" and other such like. Our tank was new, was watching a CS and got locked out of a boss and he tried to kick them for "cheating". Which is rubbish, cos I was in a party with the tank (they are in the FC), and I saw her sprinting to the gate, but it locked just before she got there. We wiped, so she got the fight in the end....
I ignored the insults the rest of the dungie, but at the end it continued and I finally typed "whatever, dude"....I know, probably not the right answer, but I just wanted him to end it. He also instigate Abandon a couple of times. I guess it was because sometimes I cast a Regen here and there and only a Medica+DS instead of MedicaII at times (gasp!)

It doesnt bother me when people troll me, but I feel bad when I see it for others - as I dont know how they must feel (pretty bad, I imagine in some cases) and I do try and stick up for others. I always try and make whatever I am involved with fun and stress-less......except when we are doing Garuda EX....then I cry on my keyboard and throw my controller across the room

Yep, this is why I advertise my FC as a haven from assholes and trolls. I have an Anti-Harassment policy in place that bans "you suck". XD I strongly encourage everyone fight against negativity on their server! And yes, I am VERY aware how difficult and nearly futile this task can seem. But don't give up! A friendly, fun game is what (nearly) all of us want. Good luck!
