He owns Eureka and Bozja, guys!
Note: Only /p messages are here, no system messages, so it doesn't show disconnects/reconnects, vote abandon, etc., but I did my best to make it clear when they happened. Apologies!

Was doing daily roulettes and got Alexandria in Level Cap. Starts off normal with the usual party greetings and some glam compliments.
We do the first two pulls no problem, but then the elephant spawns, and I notice the tank is just eating its telegraphed AoEs. We all move to the first boss area, but the tank stays behind and eventually DCs. They come back after a few minutes but don't say anything for about five more minutes. Then... they say this.
Literally no other context. I didn't miss a message or leave out anything. Just. That.
After the "45 sec," the tank initiates a vote abandon (which fails, because huh?). They end up "disconnecting" several more times, trying to get us to kick them, I guess, but we don't. We end up clearing the first boss with me as SMN, a BLM, and a lovely SGE who kept us alive. While we were standing around before attempting the boss, I reported the tank, and the party decided we were all full of enough spite to not give this guy what he wanted.
After calling me "rasict," he finally left. We got a new tank, and everything went great after that!
This guy was a full mentor, all 100s, and behaved like... that...
I'm aware I could get GM bonked for my responses to him, and I'm also aware that some people will say we should've just kicked him and moved on, but since it was a party agreement not to, I don't see a problem with how we handled it. He wanted to grief and waste our time, so we did it back.
(Also, I promise I didn't leave anything out, this entire interaction was as nonsensical and unhinged as it looks.)
