Things to think about before you call someone "Bad"

[Bourne_Endeavor]

On the other end of this, you have the people who call the general community trash because they don't know their toolkit on a Savage level. I actually had someone sit out of a boss fight in Rabanstre because they died. I was healing and having to deal with the usual skullduggery associated with gaming with the general public but I had to ask... WTF? I sort of like the challenge of getting through content with non-ideal factors but if you're one of the l33ts who can't handle that their dps was not top tier because you can't avoid mechs well... You're not only bad, you are also just pathetic. :\

Please don't generalize raiders on the actions of one idiot. Most raiders I know, who range from casual Savage proggers to WF players, would make fun of someone "babyraging" over sitting out a boss because they missed a heal.

You don't lie, you just don't go around calling bad to anyone. If it's a player who is part of your static you talk to them and politely tell them they are not pulling their weight, so you either give them a chance or kick them from your group. If it's a PF party, you might want to kick the person right away. If it's a random player in a dungeon and they are underperforming (a rather ambiguous term because what's underperforming for you might be playing ok for someone else but whatever) you either give them friendly advice or ignore them. Friendly advice isn't telling them they are bad. What are you even trying to accomplish by telling someone they are bad? At best you'll get a deserved spot in their blacklist.

Bad is merely a reference in this thread, not something I suspect many say outright unless it's an accurate description. If I have a healer who simply isn't healing properly, which is causing me to come close to hitting the floor or actually hitting it, I typically say in check, "I need to be healed" or something to that effect. If it's a persistent problem, I simply issue a vote dismal because I have neither the time nor desire to waste arguing with someone who should know the basics of their job in o11n.
