Will people admit doing such? Unlikely, since admission through chat is actionable by a GM. However in context it's obvious what the goal is. If someone botches a rescue because of ping it's usually pretty obvious they thought I wasn't safe or they simply misjudged where I'd be put, it's hard to accidentally do the things that take out a reasonably aware and competent party member.
Ask them to stop doing that? Get over it? Move on? Report for obstruction of gameplay or which ever clause in TOS is applicable? Being realistic here how often is this actually occurring to you? Is it every other duty - about every ten duties - somewhere around once in one hundred duties - with such infrequency you can scarcely recall the last time this occurred? The comment about pulling though.. tis painting a picture most clear in the minds eye.

Look, already stated I am not playing this game. You and others can pretend they do not feel strongly about this until the cows come home move in and rob you blind. Please do continue being about as witty as pre Shadowbringers Alphinaud. This Lala does so love good memes.

Jokes aside I suggest, yet again, look at what you are blamethrowing at others and then doing yourself.
Going straight for the Lala card? Uh oh did I strike a nerve? You were not even the person I replied to. Huh! Who am I blaming for what now? Will mechanist be getting new skill called blamethrower that inflicts Misery on all targets within a cone? That sounds kinda cool!

Thread engagement alone does not dictate this, the reactions of those within said thread however might. Sure sure though! Pretty much done here, whole thread is causing me feist and unlike many others will not sit here pretending I feel nothing about the topic. Have the strangest feeling in the pit of my everything that you or someone will keep making their rounds to squeak in the last word though.

KNOWING that I do not notice when it happens to others, but as someone who looks back at deaths and tries to figure out how to not die again, it's a good idea to also notice when someone saves your bacon with rescue... but it's also very noticeable when the only thing you could have done to not die is not have someone in your party.
Alright! Gotcha! So long as you can understand that the frequency you seem to encounter rescue trolling may be unique to yourself and not the experience shared by most.
