Respect the pull timer.

[Vahlnir]

Oh yeah for the record I do agree that keyboards are better for communication. This was just an example why pull timers can be used as a means of communication for those without one.

Fair enough.

[Daffidoodles]

Get over yourself.

[Naoki34]

Don't worry about me, I didn't expect casuals to understand my tendency to override timers.

[Kolaina]

This mindset applies exactly the same, since not all elements of the game are solo friendly. Again, I get the financial part, but I still think that a keyboard is a must.

Not everyone who plays is here to be social. Don’t need a keyboard to run dungeons. It’s a game first with social elements second

Okay, but it's still an MMO. I'd still recommend a keyboard. Other players can and probably will try to communicate with them at some point for some reason or another. This could lead to a lot of tension or potentially being removed from a party if they don't have a way to respond.

I do a 10 second pull timer as a courtesy to my group, nothing more. If someone pulls before it's up, I tomahawk and move on with life.

It doesn't matter what boss fight you are doing.

If somebody starts a pull timer, Respect it.

Some people like to optimize rotations, waiting 15 seconds for the tank to pull isn't going to kill you. Pulling before the tank certainly will.

Dungeons? Go ahead, bring the trash to me, ill tank it.

But if your going to prepull in a raid/trial when there is an active pull timer, then your only griefing yourself.

Pull timer, what? We have become too nitpicky nowadays.

Removed for what exactly? Not talking isn’t equivalent to not participating. Nor is it trolling, harassment or any of the valid reasons to be removed from a duty. They simply aren’t being socially responsive via text.

Not talking can lead to the perception of trolling / not participating. I have personally removed players for not communicating. They make a mistake ask if everything is okay, no response and it is after 5min I indicate a kick.

No matter how you want to cut it, sure devs are trying to make the game Solo l, but once you queue and start content with others. That Solo experience is no longer in play, you have entered the realm of the social/group aspect where communicating is part of that.

Exactly. Communication is everything.
