How not to be a mentor

[Supersnow845]

My response isn’t restricted to the OP - but the fact pattern they presented. If they lied that’s another issue but doesn’t change my main viewpoints as to his players should treat strangers they meet in roulettes.

I also never said none of rhe advice was valid. It probably was. But constantly berating a player, even if they are truly bad at the game, isn’t acceptable to me. Giving feedback and letting someone do with it what they will - so long as they are not preventing the dungeon from being completed - should be enough.

I don’t even know why anyone would even want to spend their energy nitpicking another player for their casts. It seems exhausting and most players simply don’t take this game that seriously. - because it is just that. A game.

As I said - all I do is pug and if I sat and complained about every bad player I’ve met I’d just be miserable half the time I play, and be miserable to be around. It’s not necessary. Especially when the person at the other end of thr screen is likely some casual just trying to enjoy some free time after a long day.

I don’t bother to nitpick anyone else in game either, my point was simply that defending OP on here (not in game) if they are regularly getting this kind of feedback (which is implied by the fact that they posted about it) the easiest solution is to just fix the root cause and not ask for validation on the forums

In an ideal world, feedback would be taken to heart and every gamer due to us being gamers would want to improve. But if someone doesn’t want to - I’d just push through the roulette rather than make them feel bad for being bad. Most of the time I’ll drop a comment and if they won’t listen then oh well. I’ve been in some irritatingly long roulettes due to some of these issues but arguing usually makes them stop and type more and the run takes even longer.
