Learning Party Woes!

[KaivaC]

Welcome to the forums...and...yeah, have fun and all that.

This reminds me of a clear party I joined earlier today for O3S. I went in as AST and my co-healer was a SCH I believe (could've been another AST, I don't remember). This was the first pull and a DPS, our BLM, died early before we hit the forest phase. Immediately after that, my co-healer calls for a wipe in chat. I ignore them and I assumed everyone else did as well - popped a swiftcast raise...and noticed that I'm the only one healing the Dimensional Wave that killed the BLM. My co-healer suicided themselves on the thorns. I asked them why, they said 'we won't have the DPS'.

Umm...this early in the fight, it's recoverable.

The point of that is that I don't think it's just learning parties...I think it's just NA players in general. They're impatient, expect perfection, even in learning parties, and if something goes off just a tiny little bit, they're ready to give up and quit. I will and have happily kicked players like these out of my groups and blacklisted them, because this kind of attitude is ridiculous. Learning parties doesn't equate to clear party, so don't join one and give an attitude because players don't know the full fight. Don't come into a clear party and rage out because of one DPS death 30 seconds into the fight, or on the very first wipe with a random group.
