What really pisses me off when I run parties or go into them, some member has to keep going AFK. Alot of them don't even let you know. That fucks parties up. You pull and get screwed he returns saying, I was eating dinner or some shit. Also, when people think they can just say "Sorry dinner, afk" and not let you know in advance when your deep in some dungeon, leveling. That fuckin pisses me off. Espeically if it's a good party. If your plan on going AFK so many fucking times let you god damn party know or don't start one in the first place!

If you have a life then let people KNOW you shit before you lead a party into a dangerous dungeon, field, or whatever before you go and do that AFK shit. I'm not wasting CP for a Scroll of instant warp cause the party I'm currently in is getting impatient and goes, "Fuck this, I'm leaving". Tell people you shit before you fuck people's time up. We're here to level, not wait for you fucking ass.
 
Yeah, that annoys me. The worst is when they leave right in the middle of a skillchain instead of.. brb afk wc
 
Or what's good is when someone says they've got to go, but they'll stay for a replacement, then 1 battle later they mysteriously get the red "d/c" dot by their name.

Starcraft's pull-the-internet-cable-out-before-you-lose tactic for the win!
 
I would respond, nut I'm afk right now..
 
Damn Neo!!!! you beat me to it.... and nut=but ;)
 
Or those people that put their party flag up, then go AFK for like two hours. I've known people who said that they do that just to see how long it takes them to get a party invite. Or if they ask you to party, then they go AFK.

But yeah, unless I'm gonna be online for the next hour and a half for two hours, I don't put my flag up. (Heck, I don't party much anyway). If I know when I gotta go, I always tell my party minimum an hour in advance unless it's a severe emergency. Even then, I try and do it when my MP is close to 0 during downtime, and I do it as fast as possible so as not to piss everyone off.

Yeah I always hate it when those fuckin idio-- sorry, afk I'll finish this post later.

That is win.

But on this topic, yea... Didn't fight Kirin last night because of AFK's and other such difficulties. -.-

And the best part is when the party's replacement member arrives, and he immediately goes AFK, or goes AFK after one battle.
 
I had a whm who kept going afk on me cause he was making lunch. Went afk 3-4 times, and on the last time, the puller didn't see his AFK message, so I had to jump in. I held the bird off long enough to prevent a wipe, but I got dropped.

Then the whm comes back, sees the carnage, and proceeds to tell me he only has RI cause RII is expensive.
 
>.> I donno bout the afk 465 times durring pts, but i do get the afk with flag up. Its amazing when your right there watching the screen for 3 hours, and you wanna get some food. Whats the harm in 10 mins? It's so amazing how within the 10 mins you get invited and replaced because you wanted to go away for 10 mins. - .- i hate that.
 
When you have your flag up and you get tired of waiting, decide to go get something to eat is ok. No problems with that. Do that in the middle of a pt session.
 
afk while you are seeking is more your loss than mine. As long as you don't try to give me crap for not waiting 5 minutes for you to reply before asking someone else I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it.
 
What really stinks is that I get invites when I'm AFK without my flag up. & then when I tell people: "Oh, sorry, I was AFK." They say things like: "That's what /away is for."

Ooo. . . that really grinds my gears.

lmfao WHAT???? Holy shit. Any WHM that CAN have RII should get RII. Like holy crap! Spells that important I got at like Lv42, when I tele-whored for like a week straight. He's one of those people like Jazman who spam-level then either don't know their job well, or don't have sh*t for equipment. If anything, the main priority of a WHM is Cure, then second top priority is Raises, then third would be Protects (which aren't as important, but still a very vital thing for parties). Like, I'm sorry, but when a WHM is just that lazy, I gotta say something about it.
