Warning for "Grief" Tactics?!

[TaleraRistain]

I honestly don't think it matters how many times I explain what I mean, or whatever else. It seems pretty obvious that, as a white mage, I am expected to cure 2 spam players, medica 2 spam, and hardcast raise the instant anybody dies. I'll go back to playing RDM more often if I ever get my weapon for it. Much less of a headache. I probably should buy some crafted gear for it.

If that's what you want to take away from "It doesn't matter if it was someone's fault or not. Heal them to the best of your ability anyway" then that's on you.

That's because I already am doing so.

I better add context, not that it matters how many times I have explained it. I am already healing players "to the best of my ability". Me stating "I am expected to cure 2 spam, medica 2 spam, hardcast raise" are how some players think (demand) I should be healing. Having them see me casting cure 2, or medica 2, rather than using an oGCD heal or lily, gives off the perception that I am "healing to the best of my ability", rather than me actually healing to the best of my ability.

You said on these very forums that everyone you encounter in the game except MAYBE your spouse, is a means to end. I stand by that factual statement 100% that is most indecent.

Yes. That means that they are in my party and the goal of the party is to complete the duty. The duty I am using for exp or times. I owe them nothing more than to do my best. I am not attached to any random i meet. There’s nothing wrong with that as it’s a realistic view. It’s not indecent to not get attached to random strangers and to consider my own goals. Virtue signalling is all you do

Let me ask you this, then. You've mentioned more than once about damage or death being the fault of those you're responsible for healing in a group. If it's not a factor directing how you support your party, why would that even come up?

Sometimes there is actually nothing you can do for a player. No matter how much you tried to heal them. I do not have precognition. I could have dropped a benediction on them, cure 2 spammed them, or whatever else and they still die. It can be from an instakill mechanic, them bumping the side of spikes, falling off the edge, a consistent failure of mechanics (vuln stacks+), etc.. I also have responsibilities to the rest of the party too. My focus cannot always be on one player, there are seven others that may require heals. While I consider many of the reasons for a player's death their own fault, it doesn't actually stop me from still continuing to try to heal them.

Then let this be your epitaph. We know better, you know better, and yet you keep acting like nothing's going on. If this attitude (and the actions that go with it) is the reason you got a warning, then it doesn't matter how much you try to deny it on the forums, because SE knows better too. If it isn't, then go on and keep being you against everyone's better judgment, and pray you don't make the same 'griefing' offense again, whatever else it could've been.

Only you can change you.

Just saying, if you guys spent this much effort into wanting Viera/Hrothgar’s fixed than you do bitching at the OP in this thread; we would’ve had the hairstyle/hat problem sorted by now.

I can’t believe majority here are so unbelievably hellbent on arguing with the OP. Use your time on the forum to push for something that matters.

But this is far more amusing than shouting at deaf ears to support a cause I do not care for. Or even one I do care for, because in the end, deaf ears don't listen.

It takes barely a minute to type out on a popular thread regarding the issue why it’s unfair, your disappointment in SE’s neglect and why it should be prioritised.

You’re shouting on deaf ears trying to change the OP’s methods on their gameplay, let them play how they choose. Instead of being self righteous just let this thread die and help others out.

And it'd be about as useful as it is to go to the Buraq Wall and pray up a storm about real life issues. Neither SE or the wall are going to know you even exist.

As for letting OP play the way they want; even the wall (seemingly) punished that playstyle, and yet they are not repentant, instead doubling down. That's not deaf ears, it's stubborn ears. Far more entertaining.
