    How to deal with...

    Hey, was wondering what's the best way to deal with people that are rude for giving advice or asking not to do some stuff.

    Example, I'm learning DRK, and did a Haukke Manor, (it(s an easy dgn I know) but I asked to let me pull, so I can learn it.

    This resulted in rude talk towards me. I stopped the tanking, and dpsed the rest of the dgn, since they continued pulling. (This was maybe not the best solution)

    Then, the next run, I gave advice to a new player (had the green leave), then I get tolled to go on and stop wasting time, and again rude talk during the dgn.

    I just wanted to learn, and be nice by giving advice.

    If I'm in wrong, let me know thanks,

    Just ignore rude people. They simply don't deserve better.

    You're not in the wrong. Every online community will have rude people. You just need to ignore them and play the game your own way.

    If it gets too much try take a break from dungeons and try something else. And if they go over the top don't be afraid to report them.

    Personally never had this happening to me. I have a personal rule that if people keep pulling I let them tank.
    Nothing wrong with wanting to learn and give advice to new players. Although there are "new players" that's just an Alt character, maybe the case on your second story.
    If people are in such a hurry they should make a premade group to begin with and not go DF and expect that everyone is a hardcore engame player.

    Don't give people advice, they don't want advice in this game. Everyone pays $15 to be voiceless bards and ice/thunder mages. I've given up on this community.

    As a healer I don't heal dps that pulls, because then I get aggro and I hate doing anything extra because /lazy. Or the dumb dps gets aggro and then runs around so the tank can't get aggro.

    Either do what you did, stop tanking or exit the game, wait 3 minutes and you dodge the penalty.

    If someone is rude to you, get really close to them and give them a hug. Make it really awkward.

    I find I have more fun when I run instance content only when I have to.

    I don't like the "responsibility" of being in a group, having to "meet society's demands", and getting chided when I fail to do so for whatever reason.

    Those people you meet in a dungeon you will likely never see again hence courtesy and basic human decency tends to go out the window.

    Thanks.

    I suppose I could do pre-made too.

    But I like to go in DF and be able to help players or to learn something from other players.

    You did the right thing, I think. Much like Evergrey said, if your party wants to be idiots and pull things, let THEM tank it if they want to so badly. This community has some ADHD issues and some common sense issues and DF has a way of making sure they coincide as often as possible. As long as you're being polite, keep trying to help people since the good players usually appreciate it. If you get more rude players, just tell them to get bent and do your own thing. They're not worth dealing with.

    Every community does, not just online. Just less repercusions when anonymous. AKA cant slap em silly XD
