You got told off for griefing? Just have your mate start telling everyone you're new and maybe handicapped?? (and any other immediately refutable lies they can think of)
So I'll be honest right off the bat: Yeah, I said something I shouldn't have. My friend and I were already wound the hell up from our M9 run that could've been its own post honestly but there was no excuse to call someone a bellend and I probably had a big hand in provoking the response I got but holy moly.....
So I finished levelling my alt the other day, and I (DNC) thought I'd treat my friend (WHM) to some second chance points by running through the normal modes. To cut a long story short on the M9, we wiped on the first add phase about 3 times with this burger king crown mentor who kept yelling at everyone while hoovering up as many vuln stacks as physically possible and painting the floor with their innards. So we were a little short fused.
M10 and 11 go fine. In fact in 11 we get a bunch of the people we meet again in M12 and its just fine, the BLM and PLD die twice (and not to falling off the arena if fflogs is correct-that's relevant in a bit) but we one shot the fight.
Then we get into M12 with most of these same people, and the PLD and BLM keep jumping off during Feral Fission (where the arena breaks up into squares). The second or third time they did and other people were messing up, it led to this poor overhealing SGE getting their face kicked in by a tank buster. My friend got annoyed, started typing that their funnies were killing people, then ate a mechanic and died. This led to a wipe, but not before the PLD who had received a res tried to solo the boss for about 2 minutes. They claimed it was just some inside joke.
2nd pull comes around, Feral Fission comes up and I watch exactly what happens: the BLM stays still, but the PLD immediately walks off..again. So I call them out with the word I shouldn't have said and then the GNB just lost it and unleashed just a barrage of claims and insults at me and my friend:
They said it was the PLD's first time (it's not, the screenshots show no achievement (just me and the silent picto who shared a last name with the GNB) and a fflog recorded for the fight)
They said my friend got the TB so she griefed the pull. It wasn't her with the tb and she was upset with herself for getting baited into saying something and causing us to spend more time in the fight.
They then started to imply that he's somehow physically incapable of not walking off when presented with an arena split and we should've known that because we were in M11 with them and we are just AWFUL AWFUL people to make fun of someone's handicap??? Again, the logs show this PLD was perfectly capable of completing this fight without dying 2 and a half weeks ago... Also they said it was an inside joke like last pull and now suddenly its a handicap of some kind?? Even the DRG was like: yeah, sure.
I just stopped reading after a while, took the loot and left. But seriously, awards to this GNB, the theatrics were off the charts.
