let him die and vote dismiss? , loot only pops on some coffers and bosses,

the tank and healer keep going while u stayed back w/o fighting only because a blm "acid-spited" you?...and argued back and forth ? gez , when im healing or tanking and the dps start fighting over stupid things , i feel like a dad watching 2 kids fight over a toy , in the end it comes to getting the toy to you so no1 wins....

no1 like bad behavior , but u vote dismis him , drop the party or ignore chat ....arguing back is giving this ppl more ammo to throw back at you , u learn that in school...

the OP describes perfectly why I completely stopped using the chat when I join DF. I just go in, kill stuff and leave I ran into people like that way to often.
Not sure why this is becoming more common but it can't be helped. Only way to avoid this is to run DF roulettes in Full Party out of FC/LS/Friendslist.

This has been my mentality as of late. I don't even want to say Hello anymore, just so I don't get attention on me.

In one run, I used Kassatsu + Doton on two mobs in Lost City Amdapor Hard, and the DRG laughed at me, telling me to stop. In another run as BRD, true, my damage was below THEIR expectations, but I was never far behind the BLM. I kept up DoTs, Foes, and even kept the WAR from being Pacified. When I ended up with about 8 back-to-back Resets, I spammed Rain of Death. Apparently, they found that to be a bad idea (not sure why).

So, yeah, now... I don't say hello, I don't even offer advice to a first-timer. I remain quiet, send my Comm, Loot the gear, exit.

Grinding is a huge reason people get so numb with player interaction over time.
As you can level everything on one single character, you get to do a lot of that eventually. Same 15-60s dungeons, hundreds of times.

In the end, you try to do them as efficient as possible. Dungeon entered, head lowered, shoulders relaxed, autopilot on, and hoping you get them done around the magical 20 minutes.

Same here. I'm at the point of dropping the group w/e there is a hint of bullshit.

I log.
I lewt.
I leave.

I have no patience.

Why do people need to make a forums post about 1 little bad instance? If you think the player base is bad as a whole and you aren't enjoying yourself, find a new game. Every game has bad apples, just do things with friends to avoid them in the near future. c:

Meanwhile, there is a 240+ page thread on this forum filled with posts about "little bad instances." Point being, people get upset or have a bad experience and just need to vent. It happens. You could argue this didn't need its own thread but that's an entirely different matter.

I'm with him, this would have gone over better in the DF vent thread.

It never went anywhere. Every community has bad eggs, dealing with them is part of life. Just blacklist them and move on.
