Watch your attitude on the DF or this...

Agreed. Why do people just believe this story 100%?

I have done dozens of dungeon runs and my groups have never been so horrible. In fact, they have been for the most part very very polite. I can understand 1 person being a jerk but to just have the entire rest of the group gang up on one person for no reason just sounds bogus. OP is probably leaving something out of the story, probably gave the group a reason to lash out at him or is exaggerating things. I imagine what actually happened was they got in more of a back and forth argument.

I hate to be that guy but

Pics or it didn't happen. It is lame to fake stories and make the entire community just look like bullies OP, because as far as I've seen the community in this game is great.

Honestly it's a laugh. It doesn't really matter if it's true or not. It cut through my boredom with comedy.

That said, so far I have had two bad, but not horrible, experiences using the DF. Granted this is a public place, I don't wish to share the details out of tact. Who knows if the person will rage on me for stating my opinions? But just a general idea: Snarky, cocky pick-ups who find it necessary to make rude comments along the entire dungeon run. Jabs at pride and such. If any of you do this, please stop. It's distracting and lays a burden on the perception of the community as a whole.

That's the beautiful power of being a tank or healer. Don't get on our bad side. You wont last very long without us.

Assuming you are not simply trolling the forum readers. This is one great story! They deserved it.

So, I'm not super far in levels/progress, but I've had some actually great pugs. I know this is mostly talking smack about the DF (or rather some of the.. "people" that use it) but, just wanted to share some of the good parts to. Running Toto-Rak my first time as healer our gladiator did an amazing job, and I barely felt a lot of the "healing weight" that the dungoun causes with consistently casting esuna/heals. My second time through I got in a full fresh group noone having done it before. My first time through being such a cake walk I figured "no problem, this will be fun"...

I'd just recently unlocked my sleep spell, yey I'll feel usefull. I ended up sleeping 2 mobs every pull, plus healing, and dps'ing during my "down time" By the end of the dungoun I was physically tired. I was also marking my sleep targets with chains, and fluid aura'ing them if they moved into tanks aoe range. But in the end, I had a GREAT time.

I left WoW to escape its community and now it seems the community found me hiding out in FFXIV.

Hahahaha I hope "Ebay this!" becomes a meme.

This didn't happen. Every group I've been with has been super nice. Like 20 Ifrit runs, not a single asshole. People got mad after usually 3 wipes, but thats fine. No one had an issue explaining the fight and I have never heard the ebay insult before, ever, in any mmo.

I can understand 1 person being a jerk but to just have the entire rest of the group gang up on one person for no reason just sounds bogus and unlikely, and you need to provide evidence for a claim like that if I'm going to believe it.

There's a pic in my re-cap. (trust me, I wanted a keepsake of it)

And a full group ripping on one player isn't that strange if they all know each-other and just use DF to fill in the last slot. Lots of groups do that.

Also, the closer you get to endgame, the more d-bags you'll encounter. The rudest players are also the ones who are after the biggest e-peen, so they rush to endgame as fast as possible.

Well even just reading your story I wouldn't find it outlandish and require evidence to believe. Like I mentioned, one person being a jerk is understandable. But having 3 people be jerks and just gang up on one person for no reason? Something is fishy. 3 people queueing together would make sense though.
