Watch your attitude on the DF or this...

[_Sammster_]

I agree that people in online gaming find it easier to be disrespectful to others. It's a shame because I'm sure in real life most of them would not treat people like that. I always try to be friendly, helpfull and polite. It is a game and we are fighting on the same team. My point in playing is to have fun! Must say that I have also met some really funny and friendly people which make the gaming experience even more fun.

I'm a healer and hate it when tanks and dd's don't exit the damage area when a mob uses an ability and then blame me for not being a good healer and start calling me names. Each one had his role, but it's not because there is a healer in the party that you can just take all the damage and expect the healer to have a limitless mana pool...so now if people do that I warn them in a friendly way, if they take it for granted and die then there is only them to blame.

OP, every part of me loves that you did it, but some of me just reminded me that you are not any better than them as two wrongs don't make a right. The issue is simple, people playing behind a keyboard empowers behavior that isn't controllable. Some days I wish I was playing next to these online bullies as 95% of them I would just beat the crap out of them for being so stupid. It's part of this MMO experience and median.

Bah these guys don't even have any respect for themselves, so why would you expect they have some for others.
They'll be gone in a month.

I was running Copperbell as a GLD. The other 3 members were all in a FC together. I had a THM that would only cast Fire II and Blizzard II and a CNJ that would only use medica. They also kept running ahead of me and pulling the enemies before me. I tried to give them constructive advice.

CNJ said, "STOP TYPING AND JUST DO THE DUNGEON."

THM said, "You aren't supposed to be able to hold hate on all the enemies as a GLD."

The third member, an Arcanist, says, "If the DoT by the enemies name is green, you need to grab it."

I was like, "Yes, I understand how enmity works, but it would be much easier if ______ (THM) would stop AoE spam and ______ (CNJ) would stop only using Medica, as it is the highest enmity building ability a CNJ has. Also, please let me pull hate, before you start attacking stuff."

Then they all started calling me a shitty tank and blamed me when the THM and ACN pulled 6 enemies before I ran in, and then they both died. That's when I left.

Epically done, I salute you.

The way I see it is between GS and Rude people my "Blacklist" will grow rather quickly. I mean this is a Multiplayer game you should help each other out. If you have a bad day at work and want to offend someone you should not be playing a multiplayer game. As for the term "NOOB" this game JUST came out a little over a week ago even 1.0 are noobs on this game. We are all learning the ropes. I will play nice if the party plays nice yeah sometimes sh*t hits the fan but we are here to have fun and enjoy the game not to bring RL attitudes in-game.

Usually, I dont condone this "leave while in the middle of a fight in DF", but THIS sir, I applaud you. THEY HAD THAT COMING. Good for you!

I too have been on the receiving end of people leaving just b/c you say "this is my first time in here". It's so stupid. Yea, like the ones who leave b/c of this CLEARLY were NEVER told how to do it either. They just magically knew when it came time of what to do. Morons.

People like that are just so ... ugh. I've only run into one person (a healer) who was terrible. And I don't mean in the game play since. Apparently she hated the way our tank was tanking (even though we were doing just fine). So she decided to purposely grab a mob and kite the enemy and make us chance her. On top of this, she sabotaged the dungeon by locking us all out of the next area of the dungeon. She wouldn't die nor would she let us go any further. We were forced to leave the instance.

Even though we all get frustrated with people who don't understand what's going on, insulting them doesn't help. Nor does being that drastically rude. I admit that I have cursed at my screen because one person or another was not doing something right. However, I never blurted these out or typed to the person. I hope many don't become like these people were.

This is a sign of the community taking matters into their own hands against the jerks that think they can come to this game with crappy attitudes. Bravo!

I'm a healer and my BF is a tank. We like to run with DPS from our own server to get to know them better. I keep track of good people/players just as much as I do the bad ones with poor or elitist attitudes. While I've heard some really bad stories, I have yet to witness any severe ones first hand. Thank you for posting this. I'll know what to do if we do meet some really bad jerks.
