Is Beatdown a bad player ?Follow
Hi all I'm sort of back on the forums I will just be lurking around and pop in from time to time. But when I was looking in this thread I noticed this
If a pld or any tank for that matter runs away for fear of dying while the pt sticks it out, then quit playing tank because you don't belong as being a tank. (This is to everyone who does this)
A tank job is the first one in and the last to leave. If a mob is whuppin' on your party it IS the tanks responsibility to not let the other members die even at the cost of your own life. I play a tank job and I have died because I had to for the good of the party. I have even died knowing that when I die I will delvl. Oh sure I could have run to save my level but how many would have died probably my whole party. So yes I got some respect but to me itsnot about that. If my death can save my party I will make that sacrifice because I am tank. Now sorry for it being long but yeah there's some helpful advice

Even though this thread is getting beaten to death, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I have never had the "privledge" to play with you beatdown, so in all honest I cannot say whether you play your job well or not. Concensus would tend to tell me not, in such a way that when I get bard past the lvl 60 grind I am in now, I don't think I would ever party with you.
It seems as though you like to start drama, and it tend to make me wonder who is the person behind the toon. I'd suspect you are rather young in age.
I agree wholeheartedly that this is a agem and to have fun or not party with that person. Sad though, it seems as if this thread shot you in the foot moreso then if you just let the other thread die.
Finally for someone who has an advanced job in the 70's and a few others in mid levels, it seem as this game is more to you then just a "sorta play ever now and then" thing. Thus shouting get off the computer and get a life, makes me wonder what kind of outside life you have.
That being said, I know that people all have bad days, hell even bad weeks or months. I'd say the majority of people play this game as a form of escape from everyday troubles. To get mad over things that happen in this game and to start ranting over things, maybe it's not the game you have a problem with, or the people that you play with. Maybe, just maybe it's you.

Makes it pretty sad that he's telling you not to run when you're the tank then, eh?

This has been said already, but it's such an important point that I'm going to mention it again.
If you're going to try this approach in a new thread, you might not want to act like you have in the old thread...
That being said, a multitute of replies come henceforth:

And finally, I don't care what the situation, I don't care how mad you are, I don't care how you perceive other people in this game, but there is never any reason to use those four infamous letters known as "STFU." In the first place if you're that mad, you might want to find a more productive way of saying it. But to use that contrived and downright laughable acronym (if you can even call it that) just speaks tomes of your personality. AOLese will never win you an argument either.

Whenever someone uses that acronym they always come across to me like they're sulking. If you're going to tell people to STFU, do so in The Official Flame Thread.

I dont see what the big deal is. This all starts because a tag-along mnk doesnt like the pt setup or Beatdown doesnt know where the pt is headed? If you cant get a pt and youre a tag-along, deal with the pt - they are probably just making an exception for you anyway. And about the leader always picking the place - no thanks. Most leaders are ppl that are sick of waiting for pts and decide to make them, doesnt mean they know where to go before they set the pt. If Im usually making a pt, I wait to see what jobs I end up getting before I head out.
And oh the rant on Beatdown - harassing some guy cause you say he sucks. How many pts are you in where someone isnt the best? How many pts are you in where someone doesnt have the best gear? Who cares. If you're a good player yourself, you know how to deal with it. I can tell if a tank can handle me using a gun after a couple fights or if I need to use my bow/xbow. I had to explain some things to tanks around lvl 55 when I got slug shot and sidewinder because they werent used to using cover all the time. Ill talk to them, and in tells, before you start bashing on someone in a party mode or on here.
You come to this website and rant on ppl - ive pt'd with lots of ppl on this so called bad players list and they arent bad at all. Had a whm the other day in my pt that practically started crying when we got aggro - did we boot him? no. did I come write msgs on here about him? no. Learn to deal with it and then you can call yourself a good player - either that or get in a static pt and you dont have to worry about it.
Everyone has a bad day sometimes - last week I was in king rans. tomb and just my luck, almost every time I would pull, a bat would pop on the way back to the pt. We'd get links almost every single time - sometimes links and then a pop right next to us. We dealt with it and it turned out to be one of the best and most fun pts I've been in. Can't remember everyone in the pt, but I do remember Rae & she definitely deserves to be the good players site.
Just my rant, leave the guy alone.

What you are saying has some small part of truth, but it should be pointed out that most of this is not in reaction to the OP over in the other thread, but rather the way in which Beatdown has responded to it.
And I think by and large most of the in-game complaints have been above and beyond merely being a bad day.
Imho, anyway.

This entire thread has now been wtfpwned.
Including me.
What's the difference between being wtfpwned and being regular pwned?
Is wtfpwned like when you get pwned and you don't know why? Hence the wtf?
*dances in hijack glee*

I had first heard it when doing Carbuncle Mitts runs.
We had a 55 SMN there, Phillip. He was a great guy.
Every time we spawned Crimson-toothed Pawberry, he starts off with Astral Flow.
Well, Phillip died every time, as soon as the mob spawned.
Rancorr and Raikku, being the l33t hax0rz they are would always say;
"Wtfpwnd"
So thats where I got it from. I like to repeat it every time someone dies an over-exaggerated death.

My impression has always been that you have been pwned so quick or suddenly you don't know what hit you.
In threads though it's often used for a particularly telling remark. I thought the comments about this being a movie he would recommend to all his friends pretty much said all that needed to be said.

Hmmm...It is sad to say but I think beatdown might as well quit the game. I mean he is lvl 70, ripe for applying to an HNM LS, but someone is bound to stumble into one of the two threads and see his responses. I think that you just commited game suicide by starting the thread or even responding to Singular's post. No more Dynamis or HNM for you. Sorry, but you shot yourself in the foot.

We didn't have lime last time I looked for it. I'm used to liming for truth from other forums on the net, and had to resort to cherrying. It was disconcerting!
And hey, you get the gold goodness from my sig every time I open my fat mouth.

BTW I am also 70PLD/35WAR but I am actually good. Another thing is the fact that I dont flaunt my lvls like most people do. As for the top after people get a hold of these threads your last 5 lvls will take forever if you ever get there.
uh...
I think it's time for me to run!!
NO WAIT... THAT'S YOUR JOB BEATDOWN!!

dude beatdown I was on a different account before this one so I am not "new" to this concept you call a game.
THE NAME IS SERIPH, I stay away from arguments because I know people would try to drag me into it. But feel free to add me to your /blacklist. (*.~)v
