Hate rude people?Follow

Okay I'm not gonna name any names here, but allow me to complain about my situation.

I'm a guy who likes to have fun while playing games, imagine that! So, while me and a fellow ls member were completing a quest and waiting for our galkan sausages to cook over a goblin fire, I decided to lighten the mood...

While he was away he was healing in a very vulnerable hume position, I felt the need to protect him lest goblins attack him in his weakened state. So being Galkan and the bigger of our duo, I /sit behind him and wrap my loving, caring Galka arms around him, in a cradle of protection. How nice of me!

He gets back from his afk-osity, to discover this scene on his screen. He then gets a little mad and makes comments of and about my sexual preference. Another ls member chimes in and makes jokes about me and him roasting marshmallows over the fire and feeding eachother, which I found amusing.

However my ls leader, the antagonist of the story, does not find this laughable. He proceeds to "demote" or take away the pearlsack of the other member. Not necessary, we both apologized and the other member asked for his pearlsack back, but the leader responed with this "You have to EARN it back."

Now, how does this guy place himself so far above us that he can tell us what we have to earn. The other member says that he will not kneel before our ls 'leader' and that he does not want the pearlsack back. The leader goes on saying, "I would kick Winter (that's me) out, but our ls is lacking members"

HAHA, at that point I knew what my best move was, so I hit him with one of these, "You don't need to kick me out! LOL!" I then, unequipped my linkshell and dropped it somewhere in Dangruf Wadi, I believe it was eaten by a hare or something.

What is the purpose of this behavior? There was no need to lose two members of his ls over a small joke which the jokers apologized for, and sincerely too I might add. These type of people make the game much less enjoyable.

You know, that's the first thing that will kill a linkshell: when the guy that spent the 8k thinks it makes him special. Seriously.

I bought an LS about two years ago. NOBODY on that LS was any better than anyone else, whether they had a pearl, a sack, a shell, whatever, most of that LS has left me in the dust now levelwise, and I'm completely cool with that. We still talk, they still come on the LS and we're still friends...and I only ever broke two pearls in two years.

Just tell the guy to come down off it.

My recommendation to you is to go to your city's LS salesperson, buy a shell, and start one of your own. You honestly don't have to put up with a pecking order...at least not until you get to the HNM linkshells.

Take care, good luck to you.

I see that you are new(er) to the game with your job level, but there is one thing you need to know about linkshells... they're not permenent. In the year and a half I've been playing I have probably had about 30 or so link pearls.

The #1 thing that kills a linkshell, is drama... wether it being a power tripping leader, or pety conflict within the shell, the only thing you have to remember is, that you can always find a new ls. Personally I have been in too many linkshells with drama that now whenever someone starts tripping i just drop the pearl. Hopefully you dont become that jaded.

But, I agree, the best thing for you to do is just drop the LS and make your own LS, either alone or with some other friends you've made.

Hey Winterdeathblow! I'm in that LS, I asked.. The leader why he kicked you and he said "For being gay." - He's very childish and I would have told him
"You can't kick him out just for that!" but knowing him he'd "Demote" me or kick me out of the LS. :\

Have some balls man. Tell him he's a used Galkan douchebag (yes, you can use my words exactly) and look for another linkshell. Head on over to bismarckcommunity.com if you want to start looking. There's a few linkshells over there, not just my own.

Edit: Winter, come check out the site I just listed. I'm sure you can find an LS on there. I'm on there and so far I've yet to see *ANY* such douchbaggery. I'd be willing to sponsor you if you want to check out my LS. And next time you meet a character like that, he-bitc[u][/u]h man-slap him. Twice, one being for me, k?
