If you want to take it slow, you are free to do just that.
In my opinion though, you lose a little credibility by saying you're choosing to take it slow because you have a DRG and a BLM, and that lag made you lose hate, and you are worried you might get more lag.
I'm not trying to be mean, but these are silly reasons that don't really stand up. If you want to take it a less hectic pace, there is nothing wrong with that at all, but don't give odd reasons. You don't have to justify it if that's the pace you are comfortable with

I'm pretty there's something in the ToS that says you can't deliberately make another player's playing experience worse. By refusing to heal you, the SCH was making everyone else's playing experience bad.
"I've been playing MMO's a long time and if there's one thing I've learned, it's that lions do not concern themselves with the opinions of sheep. Just take that little voice in your head that tells you to be tactful and understanding and shoot it...shoot it in the goddamn face." - SAO Abridged (Ep.2 | 8:35)

So he basically can't deal with himself?"I can deal with people learning to play their jobs, I can deal with people raging, I can deal with people B**ching and moaning. What I can't deal with is people queing for a dungeon and refusing to do their jobs. Those people can f**k off."![]()



Another point is that ToSs tend to be worded in CYA ways, so the de facto rules can end up pretty different. Doesn't look like the GMs are stopping in on this thread to offer clarification, though.
In the Prohibited Activities addendum, there is a catch-all that extends harassment beyond offensive language:
He's a jerk, and outright refused to play in the spirit of the game. Even had he not used offensive language, the kick for harassment is justifiable.There may be inappropriate conduct that does not fit into any of the above categories that may be considered harassment and as such would constitute an actionable offense.
Your job is "tank" and his job is "heal." When you were tanking and he stopped doing his job because he didn't like how you were doing your job, that is pretty much automatic grounds for being removed from the party. It's true that you should've kicked him long before it escalated, but that doesn't excuse his behavior.
As for what the GM said, mostly they were alluding that they tend to stay out of conflicts that can be resolved by simply kicking the person in question (they're also fans of telling you about blacklist, something you can't use in duties...) However, more than likely you could get him in trouble for using misogynistic slurs if you voiced taking issue with it.
This is how most games handle it, more than likely for legal reasons pertaining to their ESRB rating. Just because there's a filter in-game doesn't make offenses allowed.
