I don't flame much, but I felt that this was something that slightly deserves it.

Tonight, Sabia, Palu, and myself all went to Kazham to level up some of our other jobs. We couldn't find enough for a six person party, so the three of us decided to level off of tough Mandies in Yuhtunga Jungle. We were doing pretty well.

So one time when I went to grab a Mandy, I saw a Warrior with a Hauby on with a train of six or more Goblins, running towards the zone. First thing I thought was "He better not do what I think he's going to do...". So I followed him, hoping that if he was going to zone them all, I'd be able to switch to WAR fast enough to stop a major disaster. He gets to the zone, and then turns around. He starts fighting all of them. Now I'm glad he did fight them, because he'd hear from me if he wasn't going to (probably a GM as well), but training that many Goblins to the zone is stupid. Then after he beats them all, we saw what we were expecting...

/sh from Exsoldier: *WAR's name* is awesome!1 i want to b as strong as him! (probably not exactly what he said, but close enough).

He trained that many Goblins to the zone just so he could show off. People were /cheering him and everything after he beat them all (especially Exsoldier), and of course, he was loving it. He hung out at the zone with another friend or two to just to sit around and show how "1337" he was.

Well, we fought our last Mandy, and I decided just for the hell of it, I'd Mijin Gurku (probably spelled that horribly wrong. NIN 2 hour = BOOM!) on a Goblin right by our camp. So I do it, and I see a /s "that was not wise swishee". Once I was raised by a random WHM passerby, I did /s back "I know the difference between wise and unwise. Training six Goblins to the zone is unwise." He replies "not if u can handle them". Then I replied with "Yeah, and while you're doing it, their Bomb Toss could kill several people around you." Then I just walked away.

Camping the zone for Goblins is alright. I do it sometimes, and I also kill them if it appears as if parties are having trouble getting around. But training several to the zone just to show off is not cool. I'd like to remember his name, but I'm too tired to remember many names right now. Maybe Sabs or Palum will remember it.
 
Well, it would make it easier to get rid of all of the goblins to help people, although if it was indeed Anderoc, it was likely to show off.
 
Taking down a small group of Smithies is as impressive as hitting a rarab in Saruta for 100+ damage. It's gonna impress some noobs but nothing else, and if the person's a big enough retard to get off on noob praise, well... =\
 
OMG THAFTS SO FRIGGIN COOL!!111ONEONEONE

:roll: *sarcasm*

If he wants to train gobbies, do it somewhere where others wont die. Like lets say, not at the zone -_-.

At least he didn't zone, having all these gobbies attack the innocent players?
 
What level was he? and tbh he needs to get a life if hes doing that at kazham :? Next time you see him, tell him to get a job or something :D
 
Exsoldier is an idiot, if it's the same guy from when I played.

How is it even cool if you create and kill your own train? How amazing, a job designed to give and take massive punishment took down mobs half his level while wearing decent gear.

You should have asked him to destroy Crawler Trains in CN. That would impress me. (Virtually impossible feat)
 
I hear this is a pretty common scenario, for people to create problems so he can be a hero. I remember years back an Olympics event in Utah or something where someone did that with a bomb. I more feel bad for someone than angry if they need the positive attention that badly.
 
I used to train Bogys to Selbina at about lvl 30 then kill them off, just to get the respect, but I've learned now that's just stupid and gets no reward.
 
Yup, I was pretty pissed when I saw that idiot say that. It was along the lines of..

"That wasn't wise Swish" "Someone could have got killed or something"

umm...ya... him killing himself on a gob where the gob spawned and not even training him to a location that has a party will get people killed... people like that really bother me... I mean, let me just be super cool and train a bunch a enemies to the zone and show off...

I don't care..I hate show offs like taht.. for some reason, I'm thinking Dalgon...but I could be wrong... It started with a "d" but then so many names doo.... :(

And if he was clearing the zone of smithys, why doesn't he just kill everything as he sees them.... does he want recognition that he's doing it? just more support that he was just showing off....
 
oh ya..the guy was level 60.
 
I train AWAY from zone. I get in a corner somewhere, and GA the fuck out of whatever it is that needs GAing. :wink:
 
If it was indeed Dalgon.....I can believe it...definately a dickhead in my books...gets off on the mithra that follow him around cause "He's teh über WAR" :roll: If I train gobbies there, I train to a quit little corner and beat the hell outta them....AWAY FROM ZONE
 
Yes, I'm pretty sure that was his name.

And how is blowing myself up not wise? I didn't lose EXP, nobody got hurt (besides my charred body). The Goblin was just walking around while he was flexing his e-penis anyway.
 
That guy was a tool.

I mean I stand at the Valk/Kaz zone and kill gobs all the time, but I wait for peeps to train them to me and then kill them. Also I'll kill a gob if it's causing probs for the parties trying to go get mandies, when I do this I always ask "Do you guys want me to kill that gob for you?" because sometimes peeps XP off of them.

This guy was a douche, he sat there talking with Valmung (i think....a BRD) about how he'd "Own" a bard in ballista in /say. Having a conversation is fine but having a conversation in /say to prove how "l33t" you are in Kaz of all places is retarded..... :roll:
 
Hell I took out a cn train. Saw the fucker lame thief(very lame gear too, elvaan rse body wtf?) Train a good 20 soldiers to the zone a few days ago while i was exping my whm 34. We escaped and the people realised how late is was and pt broke.

Anyways im mouthing off big time to the thf and i noticed how many people are now standing outside the zone. Warp switch to thf, i tell the fucker "I'm cleaning your damn mess you will help me." Run back and have him train repeatedly back to the zone so i can pick off the soldiers and take em down one by one. Once that was done the train wouldnt aggro people anymore and started killing off the workers so they wouldn't wander back and link to exping pts. Nice blm sleepga-ed at somepoint and cured me that was nice, got a d2 after and logged. Payback for thet train the made me delevel to 44 way back and lose my brigandine.
