Online Bullying - A Dev request for a response and discussion

[Tawm]

I usually just respond with "I didn't know children were allowed on the internet in kindergarten.".
That said, I've rarely encountered assholes.

When I do, the whole group tends to lash out at him/her.

[Shori]

If its affecting your game just use the 'report harassment' button under Support in System. I usually manage to ignore the trolls using shout or yell but I see how it could be annoying if you've queued for a dungeon for ages and now need to start over.

I really wish we had a kick button. I was in the first 8 man dungeon last night, not the boss fight the instance after it. We reach the first boss and the one of the bards gets locked out because he's watching a cut scene. I mention this hoping the tank would stop a sec, his response was "It's his own f'n fault, scroll up and read the rules". Rules? It's a damn pug! This guy was a massive jackass, would sprint way ahead of the group to pull giant packs, which meant the healers had to spam heal him as he was taking massive damage.We got to the 3rd boss he's not picking up ANY of the 7-9 adds that are spawning. I'm running around kiting 9 adds that are beating on me, trying to heal myself, the few group members left and the tank. After we wipe his response is "Jesus man, Do you not think you can 1 heal this?"

If we had, had the option to kick this jackass and wait for another tank we would have. But no, kicking him would have been mean.

Usally this is how most people act.. Hey can you please grab the adds there on the healer Tank says "Shut up let me do my job" Tank dies Tanks says "WTF why didnt you heal me" wellt han yea i get mad cuz I asked nicely and this jerk wont listen than blames others.. I dont blame people like this being called idiot and the such but I dont agree with race,gender,religion name calling.

OP, I really don't understand your post. Performance is the only thing that can be assessed via Duty Finder. There is no way for people on duty finder to find out your real life race, gender, sexuality, etc. Now if you are being attacked by all or most Duty Finder players, then there must be something wrong with your performance.

When one person says something, they might be wrong. When two persons say the same thing, they might be part of the same group. But, when everyone is telling you something, there is something wrong with you.

(I will be honest, I only read the first post, so I'm only replying to the first post)

I don't think you read the whole thread. The screenshot he posted in page 2 is what he is referring to.

People are so pantywaisted this day. Honestly, why let what some random person says bother you? They have no relevance to your existence, nor you to theirs.

[Raniont]

And since there's this stupid character limit. The reason i had to 1 heal the 3rd boss was because the tank was such a jerk that the second tank and second healer both left.

That User Agreement nobody reads states that doing just what this thread brings up is against the rules. Stop defending people doing this crap by saying "grow thicker skin." This is a violation of the rules and should be treated as such. As paying customers to this game, nobody should be spoken to in such a way.

To anybody who has this stuff happen to them. Report the player and don't bring attention to it. Let them continue to do so and get banned.

It's the dude-bro way. Justifying douchebaggery in the name of freedom is a way of life for these losers.
