Players To Watch Out For - The ReturnFollow

For the record, not all WHMs are like that^^

I've just got out of a party with Byaku with no problems.

She wasn't in the pt hugely long and I'm not trying to imply that anything in the previous post is incorrect or made up, but maybe he had an off day or something?

I was in my set in onzozo yesterday and Infamouskiller showed up 3 times in different PTs over a period of 4-5 hours. They would camp on top of us, pull a toroma, someone would die almost every pull. then they would pull a gob and immediatly escape (they did that 2 times). at which point they didnt come back (they made new pt and returned to do same thing). was kind of funny/annoying

OK now this one doesn't even make sense. I've partied with Megago before and it was nothing exciting, but this time, something was terribly wrong. I think she posts here so if so I'd like you to read over this and fill me in on what was the problem.

She's a Rank 9 in Qufim leveling NIN. Well there's a PLD in that party too. Well the PLD kept asking Megago who would like to be main tank, and after asking four or five times, Megago finally responds, with an "um..." and that's it.

Well after over an hour with 0 experience points because the party can't decide where they want to camp and what they can and cannot fight (with Megago still ignoring the PLD), they finally get down to pulling. Megago decides she'll pull. And pull she does. She comes back with a Vepar. Considering it's hitting the PLD for 65 dmg and it was double attacking (even had equip that boosted VIT by at least 11), and considering little to no damage was being dealt, and top it off with the party's inability to cooperate, there was no chance of victory. The PLD uses Invincible and books it for the tower. All the while Megago is complaining that Vepars were what you fought in Qufim and that they would have been able to kill it. Only thing I could think of was that maybe she mistook it for a Greater Pugil since they're the same type. Which would have been fair enough, but that's not all that happened.

After all that, the real pulls finally start. But now, Megago is randomly provoking some monsters and not others. The PLD would voke every monster but when they both voked, hate control was out of control. Sometimes she'd use a Ninjutsu (like Hyoton) and just watch the monster attack whomever before the PLD would voke. Then she'd engage and then she might provoke. It was nothing short of confusing.

The main problem here was the inability to communicate. Megago would either completely ignore the other party members and do whatever she wanted, or say she'd do something and then not do it. I'd say the PLD was on her blacklist if she hadn't responded to a few questions. Something just wasn't working. If they had just all actually stopped for a second and spoke to each other, something might have worked out. But in the end the WHM got fed up and left and then the Japanese BLM did too and then everyone leaves. Go figure.

Whatever was going on there, I can't say. She didn't do anything deplorable but ignoring people when they ask you a question and then doing things that can get party members killed deserves a mention here.

See that's the thing, in the previous party with her (or "him" apparently), there were no issues and the party worked well. Nothing eventful, but nothing bad.

Then this happens. Being distracted is OK, but warn your party first. The majority of us do realize there are real people behind those characters and real life is allowed to come before a game. Just don't go getting your party members killed because you're trying to do ten thousand things at once...especially if that party is relying on you. Put the game down and do what you have to do and then come back. We all know we hate sudden and random "gotta go" messages but there's really nothing that can be done if it's a necessary thing you have to do.

Seraphimhunter, I'm not sure what was going on with Megago, but he is a fine player. Anyone looking at this post should not hesitate to party with megago as he is a good guy and a good player in my experiences, and I've partied with him a good deal. Once again, I think that Seraphimhunter's experience was an isolated one and there may be more to the story. Sadly, that is probably the case with several of the posts here.

To the forum cops:
I'm sorry that I didn't take this to the "Discussion Thread", but I for one do not read that thread, nor do I believe that the majority of the other posters/lurkers do either. I will not have Megago's name tarnished on this thread and allow any rebuttal to be buried in another thread.

This is true. Hiptaru was in my party when we did PLD AF3 and he kept trying to sell Hi-Potions to the mobs.

I'll accept it being an isolated experience, I really will. I never said not to party with her and that it didn't make sense to me why she would act that way after having a decent party with her. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna hold back on the details. I'm not trying to say "OMG don't party with her!" Because if I really wanted to say that, trust me, I would've said it bluntly and overtly.

And this is to everyone else. Anyone who takes this thread to mean that they shouldn't party with a person takes the thread's original purpose out of context. Hence the title, "Players to Watch Out For." This is simply here to warn people and give them a head's up. Read the very first post, Byaina's. She explains everything.

What I found funny is just as we were about to leave for the night they got a link and pulled 2 goblins. They proceed to fight one. We are just finishing a torama before we go.

Someone said "help please" (I forget who) so I provoke it and we start killing it. By this time their PT has killed 1 gob and we are killing the other.

Then I see infamouskiller casting escape...

We stop to help and he does a runner while there is no danger, charming. ><

Stay away from Zwickee..
