    It's my Sub...not yours?

    MRW someone tells me this from now on:

    "Oh...so do you mind if I tank this entire dungeon in Sword Oath while you tank? Meanwhile, I will use Cover whenever possible and Clemency the party? Because that sounds like A LOT OF FUN to me."

    I will have so much fun with this if I ever get the chance!

    Even if people play average at their job I still wouldn't care. However, declining advice is like a slap in the face. (even IRL) I don't get this reply much when I attempt to give advice on how to better themselves as a player to learn new things, but this reply most of the time pertains to DPS.

    Huh? I'm sorry, not following your flow. Are you saying people have been critical of how you tank and you find that annoying?

    Think he refers to some people playing so bad it almost feels deliberate attempt from their part to waste his time/sub time.

    If you say 'pls' because it's shorter than 'please', I say 'no' because it's shorter than 'yes'.

    No I think the OP means when people say "It's my sub! I play how I want!" then the OP will reply with "Oh...so do you mind if I tank this entire dungeon in Sword Oath while you tank? Meanwhile, I will use Cover whenever possible and Clemency the party? Because that sounds like A LOT OF FUN to me."

    Often when you try to give helpful advice people get defensive. I mean you are basically saying "you can do it better like this!" and I guess some people don't like that. Often "I don't care! I pay i play how I want!" is a standard answer to feedback/criticism.

    No I think the OP is saying that he will have a lot of fun if PLD stay in Sword Oath.

    I don't tank an entire dungeon in sword oath, but I would if I were to receive this response in a given situation. I just want to make sure the other player is having a fun >.>

    I often get commends for tanking in practically every dungeon, but when another person tries to give advice for how someone can improve, and someone gives this response, I feel like I shouldn't have to play by the book anymore. It would be more fun to teach someone what spending time with a crazy tank is like lol...

    I mean granted I would probably get kicked, but I would love doing trying this. What tank wouldn't love to be creative in a dungeon with his abilities.

    No I think the OP is talking about a sub sandwich and he doesn't want anyone eating it.

    I think the OP is talking about SM

    On topic though, ...to admit that if you are given constructive criticism, your response would be to deliberately perform your job in a manner that makes it more difficult for everyone else in the party to do theirs (you're taking more damage, so healer's job is harder, you're dealing less threat, so dps can't do as much damage before they pull aggro) is pretty troll, so yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you got kicked for responding like that

    My favorite part about this thread is that half of the posts are speculating exactly what the OP is trying to say. It's like sitting in a philosophy class.
