Backstory: Went with a LS exp to greater colibri. Middle camp was taken by Palides and his lol2brd exp pt, and bottom was taken. After standing around for 10 min Palides party isnt even coming close to killing all the birds on the middle ground, so we decided to camp across from the pond near the eldge on the middle level. We started pulling birds from the lower area and wivre.

After about 10 min of exping Palides bursts out in /sh cussing at us to move off his camp. Cussing at us and throwing threats. We tell him we arent moving and that there are plenty of mobs, which there was. My pts set up was NIN,COR,SAM,RDM,BLM,BLU so we werent exactly getting chain 12 or anything.
We never had an instance where there were no birds and exp was flowing nicely. But Palides couldnt stop he kept spamming /sh for us to move camp once the pt in the bottom left. It wasnt the fact that yes we could of moved is that he was a complete ass about it. He kept cussing us out and threatening us, saying we ruined his 2 BRD pt.

So after 30 min and more cursing from him at us in /sh I called a GM and the GM, i believe, took him ot jail and gave him a warning. We kept on exping, pulling birds from the bottom and wivre when they popped. He eventually returns and continues to send /tells to other members of my party and continue shouting. I called another GM after we left the area.



Now seriously WTF is wrong with this guy. He kept bitching about his 2 BRD exp pt like it was some god send. Seriously I have 2 BRDs in a pt I would have a host of mobs at camp at all times which he didnt have. They where killing slow and we were just enjoying a nice exp pt. Had he not been such an ass about it, we would of gladly moved to the bottom, but since he immediately burst out cussing us saying we ruined his life, we decided to stay because he was being an ass. I hope he enjoyed the 2 GM calls I made on him.
 
Heh, he did the same thing to a roaming party I had in the Mire one evening versus Imps.

I didn't GM him though, just ignored.

I disregard people like this as wastes of space, especially if they don't have anything better to do than cuss at me (or my party) in shout, of all things.
 
Alas, I finished reading anyway. And I have to say, even if he was a bottle of douche, you did camp on top of him.
You both lose.

I will have to agree with you on this! The only thing worth looking at in this flame is Xalioniaf Sig.
 
Meh, I don't really understand groups that will go and counter-camp a party that is already in the process of killing mobs.

Even if the party isn't doing "great" and there are still a few extra mobs hanging about, you should be able to realize that the other party is going to still be taking some of the mobs, which in the end is going to hinder your own party's xp/hr.

When i'm meriting in a "cannon" type party with a BRD, i'd much rather have my own camp rather than share one.

Sharing a camp that normally supports one party is always going to hinder both your meriting progress and theirs.

I wish more party leaders would take the time to search the area they want to merit in, send a /tell to the current party leaders in zone, and based on the number of parties that are already there, decide if they need to go to another zone. Saves you time from taking your entire party out there only to "share" mobs and deal with a party that would understandably be upset that you're trying to take over their camp.

But it's FFXI, everyone pays their own $12.95 so game etiquette is entirely up to the player right?
 
IDK what's worse... BLM on colibri or the fact that he couldn't clear the middle camp with two bards... You should have just moved up to mamools since BLM doesn't get their spells reflected on those mobs.
 
Stopped reading because... huh?

I'm guessing he said lol2brd because they couldn't clear the place even with 2 brds. Or hold mobs at camp. Or come close to killing them all off even with another party there. The other party sounds like complete fail anyway.
 
Camping on top of someone is rather silly but the actions of this guy seemed over the top. I've had my position in my /seacom plenty of times just to have a group come after we had been exping a couple hours (clearing the area) and still didn't have as rude an attitude. People just don't seem to have manners anymore.

The OP had no right being there seeing as though they had a black mage in party.
 
Casting AM on colibri's is awesome, especially because they had a ninja tank. Just aim for the kill shot with it which for my blm was a little less than 50%. If you don't kill, the AM will be absorbed by a shadow, and if it does die, than you don't have a problem.

Thundaga 3 or GTFO
 
It was a LS exp pt, we wanted to do birds, we werent gunning for uber exp. Also we where pulling mostly from the bottom so no we werent killing his exp, and we where pulling a lot of wivres, to see if we could get a hide or 2.

He sent a tell to your wife telling her to die and for u to die also, or at least something to that degree, as she was our blm.

Don't they cast it randomly on one member? Or was that fixed? The last time I did birds was as I was leveling paladin. I seem to recall them doing it on a random member.
 
They cast the spell back at whoever has the most hate. As for the OP, no matter what, YOU were camping on top of them. Yes Palides stepped out of line, but if you hadnt camped on that party, the /sh cussing would have never ensued either.

Make's right. I've had a few parties against Colibri with a BLM, only to have them obliterate the mob entirely.

Mobs can't cast shit when they're dead, Romp.

This is excessively rude. Whatever Palides said to you, you increased the asshole-factor by tenfold in doing this.
