K, so I was debating whethe or not to post about a recent annoying experience in game or not. I chose not to, but then figured I'd beat the guy to the punch at least, as he did mention reading my posts on qcdn.
The latest addition to my /blist is Robinhood...Not the man in tights, or the prince of thieves...But even more flaming.
I log in and LFG as I run amok killing things in East Saru with my level 12 DRK. I'm getting as much as 36 XP there still so I have no problem playing solo. A few minutes later I get a /tell from someone offering to party. I say, "Sure, where?"...
After some time with no response, I see that this person is in the Dunes. Since I had an hour or hour and a half, I write back, "You guys are too far away for me given the time I have right now." I proceed to thank him for the offer anyway and wish his party good luck.
After a few bees and crawlers lay split open from my scythe, I get another /tell. This time it's not from the same guy. It's from Robinhood.
He says, "If you don't have time to party, take down your flag."
Only it wasn't that well written.
Immediately I am thinking, WHAT...THE...FUCK. YOU DUMB PIECE OF SHIT. GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE, AND THEN KISS MY ASS.
I decide not to write that as my first response...
I tell him I have time but not enough to make it to the Dunes and party.
Literally, I could do it, but I'd end up partying for only minutes, and God knows they'll probably be impatient as I am on the ferry and decide not to wait for me after all even if I did decide to go.
Anyway, he says, "Where do you think you're going to level?"
I say, using the translator, "Bubu, Tahrongi, Maze, etc."
He says something pretty dumb and adds a "lol" in there so I start picking up some sarcasm and adding it to the fact that this piece of shit is actually sending me /tells about how I should play.
I write back, "I'll keep my flag up, not giving a fuck what you think."
/blist add robinhood
...before he could respond.
I /tell party leader that Robinhood is a pair of soiled trousers, not caring what party leader thinks of me at this point...I was nothing but polite to him anyway. He takes a pretty low key stand and that's it.
I told the leader I don't have time for that shit.
Basically that is it, I just don't have time for some idiot telling me what to do in this game. If I got an invite, I would have had a solid hour to party in any of the places I mentioned. I think that warrants having my flag up. Regardless, it wasn't for this guy to decide or to enforce. Call a GM next time...I might be scared then. :roll:
Go beg mommy nicely, and maybe she'll give you another cookie, even though you've clearly had enough sugar today you spastic, quivering stinkstar. Piss off...
