Impatient Party Leader

[Vandoura]

Reason I post this cuz is really pissing off that pt leader cannot wait 5-10 minute for someone that dc'ed cuz ISP kick them out. Seriously guys, WAIT 5minute at least... most ISP will be back online in 4-5 minute or so..

I won't give name but this happen to me 1hr before i post this. This guy invite me to pt, we're going to exp pt in caedarva mire (lv.54 pt) via Nashmau zone. I dc'ed on the ship on my way to there... ISP kick me out. i told my friend to tell the pt leader to wait 5 minute. before he can sent tell, i was already been replaced. Just 3 minute after i was dc'ed. He told my friend that i was gone for 5-10minute... which is BS. So 5 minute after internet went down, it went back online. i logged in, tell that leader, thanks for inviting me and gl etc etc, i never get a respond back at least saying, you been replaced, sorry about this, etc etc. So this tell me he is rude and an ass.

Is not hard to wait 5 or 10 minute for someone that been dc'ed... chances are, they will come back.

If you curious on who is that leader, he was hume male, Bald with Tatoo on the forehead character model, wearing a Walkure Mask (i think or V.Mask, didn't check him)

Thanks for narrowing it down. The Masked Man will be caught, and summarily whipped.

In other news:

Why not name names? It's the nature of warning people - "hey, look out for this guy, he's gonna ninja-jack your Dynamis lootz; oh btw, I won't name names because of an overinflated sense of nobility about the thing, he looks like THIS" makes no sense at all.​

Is it just me, or does your English actually get worse with every post you create? It's fine if it isn't your native tongue, or not even a second language for you, but I swear I think we'd notice an improvement over the years.​

Most parties i've ever been in give you 5-10 mins unless they think it was a fake DC, in which case you are promptly replaced.


Be glad it wasn't one of those invites where you take like 5 mins to get to Whitegate only to be told you "took to long getting there".

 

[Tristam Green]

I ask not for myself, but for others who may want to know (note my "retired" banner). I asked also so that every bald+tattooed hume male with a Walkure/Valkyrie Mask doesn't come into the Flameboard with a chip on his shoulder with posts that say "what the shit, I wasn't even IN a party with you".

I have a hard time reading any post you make, for this reason. (To Vandoura, not TG!)

Stop the "I don't understand what you said" bullshit. Not everyone that plays FFXI is from US/Canada. In a game where 99% of the ENGLISH SPEAKERS use broken auto-translate between themselves, and where EU and JP players use broken English, you know exactly what the fuck she's saying, even if it takes you two seconds longer to go over it.

I cant help but agree with this statement and the OP.

 

[Urat]

Seems like the OP didn't want to mention names to stir shit, and was more or less posting this to vent about leaders that instareplace members in general, not that leader himself in particular, a "you know what I hate?" if you will.

And as usual Tristam sticks his nose in to stir his own shit, picking a fight at whatever chance and opportunity he can. Nice one tough guy, looks like you've now degenerated to insulting JPs because they're English isn't flawless.

Is that a step up or down from insulting English speakers for not typing flawlessly? I can't tell.

Glad someone is on my side

Anyway, lets not derail this OP.

I post this because it is really annoying for party leader that doesn't have patient at all, cant even wait for five minute after a memeber had been disconnected.

Anyway... if you have nothing to say relevant to this post, don't bother to reply it, you're wasting the server resources.

He didn't insult a JP, he commented on an American using poor grammar and sentence construction. Prophecy was made fun of for the same reason. It's not hard to type out words like "you" and "because" or put a sentence together with words like "the" and "a" in it. If you're so pressed for time that you can't put together complete sentences or words, then don't waste time writing a frivolous thread about something that has been done to death.

I miss the days when the flameboard was 90% Rappa white knighting. Someone sell their account or something

 

[Audino]

This thread made my night. Just so you know, putting the name in a spoiler doesn't really make it all that different than just saying it in the first post.

Anyway... if you have nothing to say relevant to this post, don't bother to reply it, you're wasting the server resources.

I was going to write something about this but I erased it after thinking that it was just too easy and obvious.

Yeah, I think that people were forgetting the fact that she is American and is English. I have nothing against Vandoura, but how hard is it to change this:

Reason I post this cuz is really pissing off that pt leader cannot wait 5-10 minute for someone that dc'ed cuz ISP kick them out.

To this:

The reason I posted this thread is because it's really pissing me off that the party leader cannot wait 5-10 minutes for someone who dc'ed because their ISP kicked them out.

I mean really... That took 1/16 of my brain to type out.

This cracks me up! You point out you're "retired" but you still Want to know the details that goes on in game, If you're "Retired" stay out the game scene, just post to post you're opinion, and don't worry about who/what did it.

I don't understand half the ppl that post these days don't even play anymore but enjoy talking shit about other ppl, if you Quit then Quit, don't sit here and talk mad shit about someone when you don't even play anymore.. i think you're cool TM but sometimes you step way out of line in some of ur post...

im pretty sure vandoura is of asian descent and was not born in america. i know this because my friend is from vietnam and has trouble understand what things are plural and what arent.

Even if that's the case, I still agree with this:

I have a couple of Asian friends who have been for for a couple of years now speak English as well as me. I even have a German friend who came to America 9 months ago and can put together a just fine with no mistakes. I'm not asking for her to speak perfect English, but it's a bit ridiculous if you've been in America for a couple years and haven't improved in your grammar skills.

I'm a idiot <_<. Can put together a sentence*

 

[Stine]

One should notice that when someone is angry they don't always stop and think about whether they are using correct grammar or not. I know when I get mad my language usually deteriorates to some utter nonsense. It is true that when someone is posting on a messageboard they should try to make it easy to read for others but it doesn't always happen that way.

OT: I would be mad about someone replacing me after an obvious dc. Usually when I was a party leader and someone dced I would either wait for them to come back (yay potty/smoke break for party) or just fight some weaker things until they came back. Unfortunately not everyone feels the same. I'm sorry that you had to deal with it.

That's cool, I'll go ahead and outline it for everyone anyway.
