Bad Player AlertsFollow

Hehe, I wish I could fully remember this person's name... I know it began with "Silver" but I don't remember what the second part was... It was something like "Silvercloud", or "Silverstreak", or something... Ugh, anyways...
Very obviously a n00b. He/She plays a Mithra, so I'll just assume that it's a boy. Anyway, I'm in Valkurm trying to level up Thief to 15 so I could have Treasure Hunter when I go farming. I get into a party which contains four new players (no subjob,) me, and a guy who I think had very recently hit level 18 and had gotten his subjob. This "Silver...something" WHM is doing a decent job of keeping everybody alive, and I'm thinking "Wow, I've finally gotten into a good party in Valk!" Then, Silver starts using curaga when only one or two people are hurt. This person is very obviously obsessed with healing, but you will see that he is so horribly uninformed and stubbornly refuses to be informed. This is how it started...
<Silver...something> : Dont hit call for help cuz we won't get any exp
<Me> : Yeah, unless we're all about to die lol
<Silver...something> : No, just don't hit it! we need exp!
<Me> : Yeah, but I'd rather miss out on 50-80 exp than lose 250 exp by dieing.

Well, the conversation didn't go much farther than that, and I don't remember exactly what was said, but you get the basic idea. Anyway, we get into trouble, and three people die. Then, after these people have perished, Silver...something uses Benediction, and, as Bene usually does, draws MASSIVE aggro. Well, Silver...something dies, and I Call For Help. A few level 50+ people were RIGHT next to us, saying "Call for help!", while Silver...something kept on saying "Don't call for help!" Well, the 50+ players kill off the thing that had killed just about all of us. This is how the party window lit up...
<Silver...something> : YOU DUMBASS BIOTCH
<Me> : ?
<Silver...something> : DONT CALL FOR HELP NOW WE GET NO EXP!!
<Me> : I don't think that really matters to more than half the party at the moment...
<Silver...something> : I HAD IT UNDER CONTROL
<Me> : Um, you cast Benediction during a fight without a Paladin. You sucked all the hate off of the tank.
<Silver...something> : SUCKING HATE IS A GOOD THING
<Me> : You really need to figure out what a WHM is.
<OtherPlayer> : Silver... I don't think she's that dumb... she's the only one out of us that hasn't died yet...

At that point, I just left the party. Never have I met a WHM that was so confused as to what his or her job was. He then went on to argue with the 50+ players about various things... I wasn't there to hear it, but it was relayed to me by a friend who had decided to listen to the argument while spamming /laugh. Apparently she was also under the misconcpetion that Ranger could only be used as a subjob! Hmm...

Eesh, sorry 'bout the long post... I tend to ramble... sorry! ^_^;;

(AUGH, I wish I could remember his full name!!)

Oops...edited ^^

Don't know if this makes a "Bad PLayer" but it was hela jerky.

Short Version, and I quote...

I was running through Dunes heading to Golden Bat camp. I get a random /tell "help"

So, I spin around to see some guy running and a Goblin (Ambusher I think it was) chasing him. By the time he stops (which was quickly) he is basically too far for me to run to him. Why he did not run towards me to close the gap I have no clue.

So, I pull back my bow. Anyone with any sense realizes Ranged Weapons (Great Bow +1)are not the quickest things in the game, and I am RNG/NIN {Sorry, No Provoke}. By the time my bow lets loose it hits him twice and he drops. Not my fault, I tried, sorry.

Then I get this..from Cboy

Cboy>> "come on"
Me>> "sorry bow is too slow"
Cboy>> "then get another one"
Me>> "***** you buddy"
Cboy>> "I have a 55 pld you are only 30 something"
Cboy>> "newb"

So I attempt to write back, "who cares, what does the level of your other char. have **** to do with this, I tried to help and it didn't work out so don't be a jerk."

It said was not received, and the random name Foxmcloud popped up in my return /tell name, so I am assuming he switched to his mule real quick, who knows.

Anyhow, next time I'll just give them the {Sorry, I do not speak any English}

Sparticus --> SneakyWeaky

Please take Woe off of the bad players list.

He is a perfectly capable player, and one of the best party leaders I've had the pleasure of playing with. He is by no means a competent and fair linkshell leader, but that does not make him a bad player. He works with people well in party situations, and emergency situations.

If you want to start a list about bad linkshell leaders, put that on there, but otherwise please digress. If you need proof, try inviting him.

"Adding Morphious, Elvaan SMN/WHM."

Ahhh, Morphious, the RDM that thought he can tank, and he had a high DEF. He was a RDM/WAR when I partyed with him in the jungle. And he said the only reason why he wanted to be a RDM so he could heal him self and cast Enthunder... stupid reasons... and then I go "The job of a RDM is to enfeeble and back up heal." Then he says "No, I wanna melee" Then I say "No, help me heal" then he goes "No, I wanna melee" and so on. Then like right before I got 30, he helps me heal. lol.

What's your name on it... I think I remember you...

Yeah, I remember that name... I dont know how... but, I deleted you off my friends list... awile ago lol. (Talk about Shimra, BTW)

Also, I'd appreciate it if you would also take Anitra off of that list. She is one of the players that coasts this game by using SKILL. She is literate and has a very good understanding of what works and what doesn't. As long as you're aware of your behavior around her, I doubt you should have little more than a text-scuffle. People set their standards, and if they're high, more power to them.

The names Woe and Anitra were added to that list because of linkshell drama, and no other reason. If you want to start a grudge list, be my guest, but it won't benefit anyone but the individual gaining gratification from knowing that Bismarck server knows someone had done them wrong.

Aside from that, anyone who would be so low as to put someone on a grudge list is probably too selfish to care about anyone else having wrong done to them. Point in case, forgive and forget, because it's falling on deaf ears.

That concept is ridiculous, then. Unless these are truly bad players, people could be discluded from parties for no apparent reason. People are influenced by other's opnions, especially on a board as popular as this one. If they see Anitra, for example, on the bad player list, and somebody in the recruiting party says, "I hear she's a bad player." and somebody else backs up the same statement with the same source, they're obviously not going to give her a spot in that party, are they?

So now that I give thought to it, if that's the way this works, then what's the point? Oh, right. So this is a grudge list, then? People are only reading it to see if their names have been placed in such a demeaning fashion. Because certainly a list with such sundry, second-hand information couldn't possibly be more helpful that it is most certainly harmful.

It just doesn't seem fair to run it that way, if the opinions are represented as facts, then that is wrong, and hurtful to those who really are dedicated members to Final Fantasy Eleven.
