How much of a dumb-ass do you have to be...

[Anyria]

Am I the only one that read this guys signature? There is some real Hypocrisy going on here.

I was thinking the same thing!

+1 Rep for calling a whinner a whinner when his own signature states agaisnt such things.

Best laugh I have had in a while (well from the forums anyway)

Having a wild card adds to the challenge. Try doing some of these runs in "sabotage" mode = one or two of the raiders is chosen (intentionally) with the sole goal of trying to ruin the run for everyone else. It is fun to do these, and great practice for how to compensate for the unintentional sabotages you'll get with some players.

Agreed and Signed.

This is the most fun I have in game.

Running with guys like Wizzly and others with "interesting" senses of humor, whereby their primary goal is to throw off the team.

Greasing in the shroud or Coalescence is my fav. I don't personally do it, but I love when they do and people fall. If I end up being adversely affected by stuff people do, intentionally or not, I adapt and grow from the experience.

Unless I'm in a bad mood, then I give one warning and if it happens again... ramifications are guaranteed to follow...

True leaders will take whoever and make it work.

Well, except those on your Do Not Team With list. Luckilly it takes a fair bit to **** me off and I only have about 5 or 6 people on it. I feel bad for the guy who posted a few above me who seems to have quite the long list. I know there are some sub par players out there, but are there really that many ******s that have ****ed you off?

Now, I have noticed since being back for 3 weeks after my lengthy sabatical that the avg level of quality of player has DROPPED severely, but if the DNT with list gets that big, you might not have many people left to team with. I guess this is why I see more and more people sticking to their guilds and approximately 50% or more of the people in the game not in guilds or in their own small guild.

Ouch.

In the end boys and girls, it's not what happens in life that makes you, it's how you react to it.

LFM: Looking for DPS
Me (13/6/1 Rog/Rgr/Fig): Sending join request
LFM poster: Dude, we're looking for DPS, no traps in the quest for you

...

LMAO

That is when I would be happy the dumbass didnt pick me. That just saved you..

Time to do something else.
A huge repair bill...
And a tongue lashing from your wife, because she heard you saying blue words, while in the party.

If I was playing a 15/3/2 warchanter dps bard or 13/6/1 tempest rogue or 18/2 pally applying for a dps spot to a pug group and turned down. I would just reply with..

"Thank you for saving me time and frustration, good luck to you"

OMG... you people are so polite.

I would respond with "Really... you are kidding right... you can't really be that STOOOOPID... can you?"

this is what the 2 clerics and FS must have been doing in part 5 Saturday morning when everyone was dead and evertime on my ranger I would raise one of the healers, they would say things like " O darn I should have hit em with another Harm before I died it did almost 400 dmg" or my favorite "well maybe I should have used the pools earlier in the fight, before they dissapeared " or " well I went to the pools to get some mana back, I will raise someone once I get some spell points, oopps Ding deid in those blades, "I took jrps raise in the middle of the room, can I get another raise Jrp" jrp continues raises dead healers.....while many shotting, ding dead healer doing who knows what, never healing themselves never raising anyone...are they hiding? are they out of mana pots? are they out of heal scrolls, are they out of raise dead scrolls? do they not know they can raise the melees? they sure didnt understand healing and keeping up a hero method, that sure didnt work ..... 3 healers and you cant finish part 5.... makes sense, and there were plenty of reincarnates and good guild pugs in the group....unreal....but wait it was ....

NO they were doing the wild card challeng!!!!..ok makes sense cause they sure as heck were not trying to do anything to co-operate as I tried to complete the shroud, if I dont know the players these days its been a interesting time

lol

Not an intentional sabotage run though as much as they simulated it . If it was--they would have stayed alive and had blue bars--it's hard to be fully disrupitve if you are dead. Although now that I think of it, playing dead and innocent did cause you to be distracted by constantly raising them--increasing the chance that you died or at least burning up your resources. Hmmm. Maybe they were master saboteurs after all.

[knightgf]

... to turn down a 18/2 paladin/rogue for a normal Shroud run full of 20th level characters?

Note that this person was looking for "DPS" and only had fighters and barbarians listed in the LFM...

Some people are just discriminatory...move along people, nothing but a discriminate leader to see here...

Then again, maybe I shouldn't say that, I AM a bit discriminatory not about classes but the people I know are bad. In particular, its the guild part that I pay attention to, and if I see someone that I know is in a good mostly filled with baboons, I don't invite them in. Every guild has their bad apples, of course, but some guilds are mostly filled with bad apples...

OMG... please tell me we can come out here and post everytime this happens...

I was in a shroud on the weekend... luckilly on my cleric when everyone died in part 5 except me. Yes, I know... all my fault cause I couldn't keep tanks up that only had 200 hit points... argh... Actually I was so exhausted from mana from trying to keep them up, the 2nd cleric was the one that let them drop. Can you believe... 2 clerics and an almost wipe? Well, only so much damage a couple of clerics can do.

People were taking my rez's in the blades and *ding* died again. Then people stopped taking the raises and were just thinking it was going to end.

Luckilly I had a few guys on the run who knew what they were doing and I raised one and kept him up and went hero method to complete.

Some people suck
Some people are stupid
Some people are ignorant
Some people are all 3

I'm just glad there are enough that don't fit into those above categories and we can actually complete stuff.



Again, now I know why the people in the better guilds just end up sticking to themselves and let in the odd pugger, because what can the odd pugger really do to cause enough of a problem.

Probably someone that knew you.

This is why we get along.

Generally the worst they can do is die, in which case the cleric can rez them at some time when he/she/they finally have time or the motivation to do it.

Dood, there is no reason to be upset.

They just weren't that into you.
