The fact you think this is just "an insult that'll annoy you for maybe a couple of minutes" means we need to report it so much more.
KYS is not cool, no matter what synonyms you use.
WHERE IS THIS KETTLE EVERYONE KEEPS INTRODUCING ME TO?
Maybe try not to be snarky when you want to be "helpful'. The guy deserve to meet the banhammer for sure but the way you told him to go under azylum was really disrespectful.
Wow that sucks. Good thing you reported them, that should not be acceptable.
I had always wondered why tanks would stand outside of the bubbles. Until I once ran a roulette with a SMN friend, me as WHM, and our tank would always move an inch out of the bubble/shadowflare. We made sure to only place them once he had stopped moving, but he still got out as soon as we placed them. When I asked why, he said he had other player effects off to reduce lag, so he couldn't see them, and apologized.
After that my friend and I started placing it randomly as a joke, betting whether or not he would get in either of them. He never noticed, and the other dps didn't say a thing. At least he was chill about it.
Welcome to the internet/text communication! If you don't smiley or emoticon or "teehee ecks dee ooowoo" at the end of your comments, you're automatically 'snarky/rude/an ass'.
On another note, I can't say I've had much trouble on Crystal myself. I can count on one hand how many issues I've had with other players and while that still isn't an excuse to be a dick, it's an uncommon thing that happens (in my experience anyway). BL, report, continue with your day.
I understand how you feel and absolutely agree this guy was 100% wrong. I also agree you should report. I have a suggestion. I see a lot of things people do in dungeons that are considered "wrong". I usually ask the person if they mind some tanking/healing/dps tips before I tell them. People are VERY touchy when you instruct them. Regardless the response from this guy is absurd and should be reported.
Was running Malikah's Well today to level and noticed the tank was standing just outside the White Mage's Asylum for all of the fight, so I figured a little heads-up might be helpful. Had to type it quickly as he was racing for the exit. After leaving, I got the delightful tells you see above. The kind of toxicity Crystal has now is really making me miss being part of Aether.
You're right, he should have said "Please, king of kings. God above mankind. I know I may be dirt, but please stand in the bubble." It's the only way to show you aren't being a jackass, after all.
Well, if anything, I learned a new word today. I think SE should try to implement that work into their story somehow. From an antagonist perspective of course. Anyway, stop being toxic OP. You clearly didn't /kneel before the tank before you made such a reply! Know your place!![]()
Carrot yourself?
Wow. All these "horror" stories about Crystal, and yet I've never come across anything like these and I'm in Crystal, too. In fact, I've been finding my new "home" to have a lot more friendly interactions, even if a bit quiet. I'm thankful I haven't run into issues like this yet...
I'm glad you reported them. That kind of behaviour is unacceptable. :/ Here's hoping the toxicity levels will decrease once the expansion's newness wears off.
I won't be coming back to FFXIV's forums. The forum vibe is way too venomous and brings out the worst in me. I don't like who I am on the forums, so it's best to distance myself.
