I don't where see where this has to do with the shell as a hole. This is saying that Kumarr, in the summer, wasn't as good as healing as he should've been.
Where does the linkshell come into this? Have they harassed you, taunted you, or done anything bad to you besides make you main heal?
Excim is saying, I think, that they're taking such a small experience and making a huge deal out of it.
Which is exactly what they're doing. :] Obviously Kumarr had kicked him from a party or something, and he just got a little angry. :]
The reason this thread has gotten so many replies is because people are saying "Oh yeah, I denied a request to that linkshell." If you look, that makes up 70% of the posts on this thread. -___-
While I'm sure you mean well by posting your point of view since it is a linkshell that you pretty much well enjoy, to others it is a laughable group.
Allow me to explain.
You say they have not harassed people, taunted people or done anything bad.
Then how do you explain the number of testimonials that other people gave about Manbearpig?
Kumarr seems to actually ask people to join his linkshell a repeated number of times even when someone refuses to. Are you going to say that's not indeed "harassment?"
I can probably say that those 70% of those who refused were actually harassed lol.
Why else do you think they said that?
Some of Manbearpig members have asked people around for money.
I can understand asking someone in your linkshell for a small sum since you know the person.
I can understand even asking a close person on your friend-list.
Tell me the merits of asking total strangers for gil?
Don't give me the standard "Because they look like they have gil to spare" or "Because they may be nice", or "Because you don't have to pay them back" crap.
You know what that does?
It makes the person who is asking (random strangers) look bad...and I mean BAD.
It makes them look even more stupid when they do that at a town where they can just go outside and kill stuff off to at least get an airship fare or chocobo fare.
And if someone /check's the person out and sees the linkshell name (god forbid if they have one) they will remember to stay away from it.
It would be an even more bad reflection of your linkshell if someone saw other members (not the same one) doing the same begging.
People should not expect to have their hand held all the friggin time while they play.
They have to learn if they want to do something right.
Otherwise they will not be able to stand on their own two feet. So because they are new to the game they have to be babied through the Dunes?
Because they are new, your leader tells them its ok not to their supposed job?
That is a very laughable attitude.
Hardly acceptable behavior in my opinion. I'm sure some people would agree.
Also, Kumarr has [bold]tried[/bold] to "taunt" Psylent.
I'm going to emphasize on the "tried" since his remarks are something that won't do anything to actually get a rise out of people. To you, it may seem like he was successful.
To me it just looks like he wanted to have the last word to shut psylent up but was just so unsuccessful in doing so.
If a leader does this, this pretty much sets an example to others within the linkshell that its ok to taunt people. Doing so will entail some risk since that could only make you look out to be the bigger idiot if they don't take the bait.
Making a small experience into a big deal?
Perhaps that may be true. However, you cannot deny the fact that they still had a bad experience with Manbearpig, can you?
Go ahead, keep on denying the indiscretions the people outside of that linkshell that had the unfortunate luck to be forced to observe.
