Ok here is the deal, this is a new list I have wanting to do since this problem is growing.

Please name all fake dcer's here, so I know the next time I need a party member, I know not to waste my time inviting.

Because it's a growing problem, people play only got so much time on there hands, and they fake dc some times it destroys party and forced to disband leaving that other person to log off with no play time which is crap.

Thanks for reading =)

Tip for fake d/c

At the start of the party lay down the foundation

"Oh **** guys I think a storm is coming so I might d/c anytime"

If party is good disregard

If party is bad

Fake d/c without saying anything preferbly when people are getting adds.

Log back on when everyone's dead

"sorry guys my power just flickered"

A few min later while waiting for raise

D/c for good

I'm not going to lie, I have done it before... and I know most everyone who has been in a bad party and just didn't have the heart to tell them has.

But for the most part I am usually an *** and say "Sorry guys, but this isn't working out, I am going to go lfg again." "<Nice to meet you.><See you again.>" *click*disband*click*

"Oh ****, my cat just exploded!"

heh, i can honestly say i've never had to fake a d/c. i can tolerate bad parties as long as i'm not the one doing the dying.

as for anyone else, i can't say i've actually seen someone fake d/c and KNOW they were doing it.

Not everyone fake DC's...I sure never did, lousy party or not. I will always give them a 1/2 hour warning and find a replacement fast.

But yes....There are PLENTY of fake DC'ers out there. It's so bothersome to wait there in your group like a schmuck wondering if this guy will ever come back---should you look for member, should you give another 10 minutes? It's such a waste of time and so rude to do to people.

I think they should be listed, sniff 'em out! Let them know we're onto them, LOL! Quit it!!!!

You know what I do? I just turn my ps2 off. :D

When I get pissed off I do it... if not I'd probably end up doing/saying something I'd regret later.

So instead of just putting that party out of its misery, you drag some other poor sap out there to endure it? Your replacement will probably just leave or fake dc.

Some parties just suck so bad that you have no choice but to fake dc.

Also, Bowser's strategy is great. Works like a charm.

Thats not what I mean, my partys I make are always good, people fake dc really is just plain retarded, they wont get invited from me anymore kinda ruins your reputation, been here for 3 years, and you wonder why you sit there for 3-10 hours a day and dont get invited.

Yeah, Well I'm not gonna say I don't fake d/c but sometimes its 'real'

I know for me, I have a problem with d/cs. They are unpredictable and frustrating for me. Sometimes My computer restarts every 5-10 mins I play. I just can't take it anymroe and I dont bother coming back on after the 12th time it happens. I don't purposely do it really, but what do you want me to do? Yes I know I have a ****** comp don't bother telling me.

Point is, it's not always the players fault really.

What you blind the forum says fake dcer get your non fake dcing butt out of here least you come back 2-3 times yeah I know your not faking but you know making a dumb remark like oh a storm is hitting well....

first thing I say is this what part of the area you live in I got a computer here and I can check the weather so I can catch ur fake dcing butt lol

so to the topic above this one its not directed at the real dcers.

and I am just venting and flaming so bring on the flames.

It saves a lot of time to just take out the ethernet cable. You can log back in on a mule in less than two minutes!

Edited for managing to mess up a two sentence post.

Edited again because it was right the first time. God, I'm tired.

Zanon..what I don't get is how you can tell if they fake d/c...
Sometimes their internet just cuts out and doesn't let them back on..it happens to me alot. Just because they dont come back doesnt mean they faked d/c. People d/c. Live with it. XD

One time during a SNOWstorm, I saw lightning, I said,

"Holy ****, its snowing and lightning at the same time, im gonna log"

It was quite funny, since it looked like I lied

I remember a while ago you had a post about not being able to log on because your internet and FFXI were sucking, and I was having the same problem.

Occasionally, my wireless goes down, and my PS2 is on the wireless. I'll keep dropping to like 44% and then come back up to 100% again... it happens a lot at times, and it sucks. Sometimes it kicks me multiple times, sometimes I can't get back on, and sometimes I try so long I just give up. So yeah, there are those people that don't fake D/C but just have a crap connection.

I've had the "start to drop from the game" when I'm supposed to skill chain or magic burst many times, so this actually does happen. I've also had bard songs interrupted A LOT because of lag. I'll move to where I'm supposed to be, and wait a second before singing my song, but the game thinks I'm in the other spot so when it registers I move and cast the song at the same time. I waste 8 seconds of standing there to get "Annalise's casting is interrupted."
