Dont kill the lambs!

[PsychologyPhD]

They will never know who is killing the lambs. It's funny, i've seen people rage when a stray aggro pulls one into the aoe fest, and they just assume it's someone killing them, even though no one is even doing it. I would laugh really hard if Square secretly patched in some lambs being linked to the ones aoed, so you pull them, you pull lambs. The rage would be sweet, and it would be much more challenging and skilled if people could kill all but the lambs not using aoe.

Also, my blacklist is near full of gil sellers, something as minor as killing the lambs (for whatever reason) just doesn't cut it. Relax, it's a video game.

Doesn't really matter who did it, it is the fact that it will happen. See people in general are pretty interesting and under certain conditions a really phenomenal phenomenon happens! This cognitive bias has been coined as group-think. someone puts some poor sap on blast in /shout telling people to blacklist, a number of people (having the emotional response of being pissed someone ruined their exp grind) have a knee jerk reaction + simple forces of conformity and boom that poor person guilty or not is screwed.

Now that would be awesome. I would literally buy cake and cola or something, and enjoy watching the players use single-hit spells or AoE and see the rage fold out.

I don't kill the lambs early myself in DD, but whenever lambs are killed (even with 5 minutes left) and people begin to rage because they will 'lose' 3 minutes of exp, I never feel sorry for those 'poor' souls. No, I feel entertained reading the chat as the rage folds out. And that comes from one who takes part in this mindless trash mob AoE'ing.

Yep, and now because of your poor judgement you have been blacklisted by who knows how many people. You may want to reroll so your character doesn't become the most hated person on the server. Next time don't kill the lamb, that type of behavior will not be tolerated!

I'm thinking this is a case of Poe's Law, because you cannot be fvcking serious.

When i read his post, i saw the sarcasm dripping off it. Who knows, maybe im wrong.

Thanks for the heads up.

I thought that contribution was capped on FATEs so what is the point of prolonging the event?
Is it the xp/drops off the incoming trash mobs? *genuine question*

The XP from trash mobs can be worth quite a lot to many people. It's a faster way to level for sure. I wouldn't want to be the person to kill the lambs...

It's your prerogative to kill lambs when asked not to, it's their prerogative to blist you for it. Working as designed.

OP can shed a river of tears it doesn't matter because Yoshi has said it isn't an exploit. Calling each other selfish while demanding they play your way is hypocritical on both ends.

If you have a problem with it then take it up with the devs because the players are merely maxing their xp/hour. I don't even have a 50 yet but my guess is that after your quests dry up leveling a few classes to 50 then maxing xp/hour in FATES is all there is to do and it's not worth the sacrifice so whiners can RP or feel "immersed" or w/e.

blist and fates are working as intended. You got what you deserve and if I were there I would blist you too.

I had to gtfo of that area after hanging around for a couple days. SOOOO much trash talking and yelling at each other, name calling, blist threats , report threats. ALL BECAUSE of a frikin FATE. That fate is not the only one you can maximize/farm xp in, anything that requires you turn in certain stuff allows it. Like the golem heartrt fate thats around lvl 30 or w/e, the goblin fate with crates.. they everywhere. Do the fate how you want, someone wants to cry because it didn't go their way and blist you then let them. But don't let them walk all over you talking a bunch of trash, telling you to kill yourself and do the world a favor and the likes.. report them nasty people. If you were really doing something wrong, would the fate end?
