All I have to say is,
LOL
Unctgtg is 100% pure genius, a selfless, ridiculously wonderful prime-rib of a man. Every single ffxi player should strive to meet the brilliance and skill he achieved in his in-game career.
SARCASM DETECTOR: ALERT, ALERT. *explodes*
I had the joy of doing Dynamis for several months with this fellow, had the utmost delight playing beside a character of such calibur. This guy was running first for priority of dark knight AF for a while, and also expressed interest in sponsoring Dynamis for his scythe. Which, would be fine, except the rules prohibit certain people from sponsoring until they meet certain standards, one being you must be 75 and have the weapon, in order to be able to equip it and prove you are upgrading it (to prevent people from sponsoring and selling currency). This guy even got to sponsor a few runs despite being level 73, but none of this was good enough for good ol' Unct. No, he wanted more.
He started sending me /t about sponsorship, which I specifically put on the site is not something I handle. I leave sponorship all up to Lucien; I have my hands full with attendance and lotting rules. So, I directed his tells to Lucy. 5 minutes letter, I get another /t. And another. Then when I ignore those, I start getting emails. Then IMs. Finally one of my friends sent him a nice /t in return with a few explitives, and he laid off for a while. Then it was back to the occasional email, the sly /t once in a while, but at least it wasn't harassment level.
Next thing I know, this kid is bugging me about his attendance. Why did I lose a half point? Why did this person pass me? Didn't this person leave early? I didn't see this person there, but he got an attendance point! Blah blah... He continues talking to Luc and I both about sponsorship, talks about it in linkshell, talks about it just about everywhere he possibly can. I'm pretty sure when he's in the shower, he's singing about dynamis currency. It finally all boiled to a head tonight, when at long last, everything came to a stop. People were sick of his greediness, his absolutely revolting obsession which he of course must share, and rumors of "finances" I can only describe as the "chinese" kind.
We all stayed in KupoNet a while after leaving Dyn-Jeuno, and had a discussion about sponsorship. It started off calmly (I even was nice enough to warn him I was in a terrible mood, and was probably going to bite his head off). He started talking about how he wanted to co-sponsor areas like Jeuno, Beauc, Xarca which drop all 3 currencies, something along those lines, talked about how he thought both him and Luc deserved to upgrade. After a few minutes of talking about this, a few people started saying that they thought because of Luc's role as leader, he deserved the sponsorship more, the exp lost, the time put into the shell, etc. Unct kept saying well he wanted them to co-sponsor, blah, he wasn't really listening. So I said you know what? ***** this. I'm sick of indulging selfish people.
Said: Unct, here it is. I want you to tell me right now, if I told you the choice was yours: you can either say you want the upgrade first, or you would rather Lucien get it first due to his sacrifices? After a good 10 minutes of beating around the bush ("I want to co-sponsor" "I want both of us to upgrade at the same time" both of which are impossible since he isn't even 75 anyway), I said fine. You have 5 seconds to answer me. If you don't asnwer by the count of 5, I'm breaking your pearl.

"Ok fine me."
About time! Want to know what? That, my friend, is exactly why no one in this linkshell likes you. You are a greedy, selfish ******* who would rather listen to yourself talk about ffxi then understand simple concepts such as "giving" and "selflessness", and that's exactly what I told him. I said that had he told me he would've rather seen Lucien get sponsorship first, I would've gladly had him and Luc random for sponsorship when he hit 75, because then I could appreciate that he would've taken back seat for someone else, and respected the work it takes to run the LS he's in. But no, he would rather be Mr. Asshat, and you know what? Mr. Asshat gets nowhere today, Unct. Learned that the hard way, eh?
Now even after all of this I would've been fine with having him in the LS (despite 99% of it hating him and him being a selfish jerk). However, Mr. Asshat overstepped the precious boundaries of my patience. Yes, he truly managed to inflict my wrath. He told me he thought no matter what he said, I would've had Lucien get priority for sponsorship anyway. Now, anyone who knows me well knows that I am all about being fair. More often than not I've had to make tough decisions in my time playing this game (and outside of it) regarding friends, and I like to think I've never played favorites. When one of my sacks is late to an event, I deduct points. When they don't show up for something, I let them know I didn't turn a blind eye. When someone tries to take advantage of the linkshell, friend or no, I do not let them get away with it. I've lost friends doing what I think is the right thing, but you know what? In the end, at least I can live with myself, and it proves to me who my real friends are. And after all this, having some little scumbag like Unct telling me something like that was the very last straw on my already thin patience.
Unct's pearl is broken. But I do have to say, telling him off did relieve a lot of stress. Thanks Unct!

There were a lot of things Unc didn't consider, he pretty much was beating around the bush and jumped the gun without thinking during that short period. What came to worse, was that he couldnt admit there was ANYTHING wrong about himself, other than that he wanted relic scythe. Had anyone with half a brain, would not even have needed to bother asking TWICE over the same subject , since it's for certain he's contacted regarding this more than once before.
And finally, if Unctgtg never liked the rules, which CLEARLY did not see this coming (so it didn't have anything set regarding to the issue), always had the option to personally QUIT the LS, with equal opportunity, and find a new one. I'm sure there's a few LS's out there who could probably use sponsorship for a dyna, simple as that. If you wanted to, I'm sure you could've set up a vote in the linkshell (of democractic equality) to freevote on Lucien or Unctgtg obtaining the currency.. And I would be pretty positive that the outcome would've been black and white.
Here's a post I've seen about Unc on Alla boards, and what people have said, if you're bored enough and cared to read.
