So It's against the rules to need for another job?....

[Wobble]

To clarify I was on WAR today in Low Level Roulette and needed on two items that I can use on my PLD which is next to be leveled and at 18 now. I had only gotten two items one you see in the photo and the other at bottom I passes since I had it. I am the type that never needs on anything I'm not planning to use for wearing or glamour (I will always ask first on this one.) I was then vote dismissed for doing this. I did report it but doubt anything will come of it.... I have never been vote dismissed on any jobs so this is a new one for me...

They didn't tank, they can't roll Need. End of story. :/ The dungeon will always be there, they can go again for the loot they want (hopefully as the correct class next time).

Oh, and I think this is reportable harassment, especially since they cussed you out.

It's low level roulette. Those people were douches to kick you, and I hope the GMs give them the slap they deserve.

[ManweSulimo]

wow. My opinion you did the right thing. The RNG of life just gave you a bad set of party members rofl

[gamesmart]

Loot system is working as intended - if they wanted those pieces of loot they should've come as that role - but that vote dismiss isn't. Had they not used such language the GMs might not have done anything about it - but given they DID use that language, it should fall under harassment. People are jerks, they'll continue to be jerks, and what's done is done. Don't let this one bad experience ruin your fun, move on and continue doing what you do.

It's not coil loot which is a harsher setting, but if your a higher level in a low level dungeon they will consider it stealing since you can easily get good gear while they survive on loot.

I usually ask if anyone needs it if I roll greed or ask people to pass if I need it. Loots a touchy subject even though people think its whatever I'll roll what I want.

You gotta be nice whether its people from your server or not and I'm sure people below this comment will say something else.

People can tell if your in roulette and you don't want to add fire to the flame.

But this isn't the first time this has happened and it will not be the last.

The thing about reporting harassment/cheating in a roulette group (and I'm speaking from experience here) is the GMs seem to have a hard time unless you can:

a.) give them exact times (always always have timestamps turned on in your chat logs)
b.) go on the lodestone to look up what server the people in your group were from (can be tough if someone's using a common name)
c.) paste chat log snippets in your ticket so the GMs can search the logs for exact text strings.

The GMs in my experience have been very appreciative when I give them a lot more information than I think they need. I still can't tell you whether anything ever came of either of the two non-RMT GM reports I've filed, but there it is.

Mh, what you did isn't against the rules, but it is generally considered bad manners.

You don't 'need' for things you don't need on the class you're playing right then. If it was any other combination of classes, you wouldn't have been able to do what you did. (i.e. a scholar can't need on dragoon gear, no matter if they need it right now for their other class.) However, because you're a tank rolling on tank gear it's merely sketchy. They look at you and see you obviously don't need that stuff, whether you think you do or not doesn't really matter. It's about perception. They didn't want to run with someone who was just taking gear because he could, which is what it looks like. Everybody can turn gear in for seals or use for desynth. They exercised their right to use the vote-kick system to get rid of a player who they saw as taking advantage.

[TouchandFeel]

While what you did may be considered "bad manners" by many, it is in no way justification for someone to curse at you and kick you.

What the other person or persons did is an abuse of the kick system as they kicked you because they wanted to get loot and not let others have it.

Reporting them was a good thing on your part as I personally cannot stand the prevalence of this type of immature and disruptive behavior in the game. Chances are that they will not get much of a punishment, most likely a warning unless they have been reported numerous times before for such activity. However, that does not mean that yourself and any others should not bother reporting such activity, because the moment we stop is the moment we are saying that it is okay for people to act in such a way.

Technically you shouldn't have needed on it anyways because it's DRG armor. It's pretty useless to you; SE just lets you Need on it anyways.
