Well I've been trying to stay away from the flameboard, but I noticed many here have a problem w/Peregrine & I ignored it & remained one of his pawns & in the end, ended up slapping my own forhead. I won't be replying much to this topic, but I would like some honest opinions here.... Do you all think it's right for a leader to act this way? Demanding obedience, hiding stuff from members, talking down to anyone they damnwell please, even on a first accidental offence because they have no sense of social ettiquet or don't care about the feelings of others?

I'm gonna divide this up into a few posts.
 
Sorry for dropping out tonight guys. I've been missunderstood & repremanded/yelled at by Pere a good few times now & feel I didn't deserve it. When it has been decided that it was a missunderstanding I don't receive an appology or anything. A current example is that I recently on QCDN applied to join a 2nd Dynamis LS, forgetting about the supposed Dynamis cool down timer. My reasons for wanting to join a 2nd shell was to give me something to do on more of my nights since Dynamis is the highlight of my pathetic & boring week each week. Pere jumped on me, said I was misrepresenting the shell (that part I still don't understand), I appologized as I forgot about the cool down timer, but there was no "It's ok then, you made a mistake, it's forgiven" or anything, instead the topic with my name on Invictus' boards disappeared from everyone's view. Tonight leadership did not set a tank order & at last minute decided to let the PLD choose the assist order on their own. One thing any good leadership should know is that decisions like this shouldn't be given to normal members because they (leadership) may not want to be bothered with it. I'm not saying everyone in leadership was this way, but Pere's outburst made me feel that way. Tonight leadership did not let us all know before entering Dynamis what the assist order was going to be & since we weren't notified beforehand, I was not prepared with macros & my Jeuno cheat sheet to remind me of the mob names. I began rushing to re-setup my macros to main tank Dynamis, rearrange my assist macro (so should the order change mid run due to my death & stay changed, I'd be ready) & fumbling for my cheat sheet & mobs got pulled. Thank you Elleshar for stepping up. On another note I don't very much care for the way Pere has chosen to speak to me, it's down right uncalled for.

Here is a sample of what I'm talking about. I didn't have FRAPs loaded since I had to format my PC 3 days ago, so I print-screened it. I've had no problems with anyone in this shell cept Mortechai who's gone & now of all people.....Pere. I don't go out of my way to start any drama but damnit all, I'm not gonna stand for being talked to in this manner. Mort's problem was that he was ignoring the simple rules about lotting rights & getting upset because he was having a long run of bad luck. I could care less if another PLD gets AF2 before me, even a new one, as long as they have lotting rights, I'm also at Dynamis for coins to upgrade relic gear & respect the rules & congradulate other PLD on their obtaining AF2 (example: Mantas got gloves from San d'Oria, Mortechai got head piece from Bastok). Yes that's right... I even congradulated Mort who had already been quite rude to me in tells over his anger toward me having lotting rights.

I wanna continue with you all, but that's obviously up to Pere, but if I did I'd want to be treated w/some social ettiquet. Since I started with you all, leadership has always given out the assist order before we entered, why should it change now for the worse? Sorry if it seems to some of you that I'm getting riled up over nothing, but I have a very low tollerance for this sorta thing. I don't like being yelled at cause things get left till last minute & then dumped on others & I'm not prepared because of it & then get put under pressure & people start sayin stuff during a run because a mob hasn't been selected right away.

Peregrine said:
No, you're going to decide the assist order amongst the relevant paladins before the run starts, and you'll never ask for it again. Is that clear? I mean I said it five times before, but maybe it bears repeating six times if it's so hard.

This is not up for debate, and this is your final warning. What you did was naively apply for another shell out in the open, then you went ahead and called yourself Invictus' top paladin in it. I'll tell you right now, you have a long way to go before you can be throwing our brand name around like that. I deleted that topic because I didn't want you to look like an idiot in front of the entire shell and the entire forum. Everyone here knows there's a cooldown time. I did you a favor.

You failed orders, and you failed them several times. Do not ask for an assist order again like I've NOT told you all it's your job to decide it over and over. It's up to the paladins to decide who feels like being frontline for the day. You want a debate, you make your own shell. End of discussion. I don't care what you have to say about it. I gave you an order and you failed it several times. I don't tolerate that. No apology. If you didn't hear me tell you that it's your all's JOB to make the assist order YOU WEREN'T LISTENING. If you can't sit down and chat with two other people in the shell as to what order A B and C should go in, you don't deserve to be in front of the mobs tanking. ABC ACB BAC BCA CAB CBA. IT'S NEVER GOING TO BE HARDER THAN THAT.

If you missed it AGAIN, here it is again: you are to never ask the leads for an assist order again, and it had better be decided before the first pull comes in every single time, forever. It is a Paladin affair. I've dealt with sorry-ass paladins for the better part of seven months in this shell, and I'm getting tired of the primadonna attitudes from them. Step up, or some other paladin will and that shadow mantle will go on them. It's one thing to be insubordinate. It's another to be a tagalong. You're being both right now, trying to shed easy responsibility but at the same time thinking you=cher+zyl+me here. You're not.

Next time I tell you to do something, I expect it done the first time, permanently. Not the sixth. Not but but but but pere. Do it. I tolerate a lot of things, but I dont' tolerate incompetence and laziness. Paladins decide the paladin order. End of topic.
 
Well since Pere most likely conveniently locked this topic, which is a switch from deleting & hiding the last one we had a spat in, I had no choice but to open another topic to continue so here goes. Continuing where we left off:

I'm sorry Pere, but no it's not & frankly I don't like your dictatorship bullshit attitude you've been taking lately, nor your lack of social ettiquet. I for one as stated previously refuse to stand for it & as for the assist order which you are now one again trying to pass the buck on, no I will not be following request *cough*demand*cough*.

You did me no such favor. You merely hid your disgusting attitude you portrey in your words toward others as you have done here. I only portreyed myself as the top attending paladin at that time, which was damn well true. If letting others know that I've been dedicated to my shell is bad for the shell then please boot me out now, because I don't want to be in a shell with that kind of common sense. I did not know there was a cooldown time, you told me, I appologized & deleted my post, you however held no concern that I did not know, you kept your nose up & turned your back & walked away without a hint of understanding.

The only order I failed was this last night to make up an assist order on my own, which NO you infact have not told us it's our job time & time again, Cherron's been doing it so wake up & pay attention to what's going on in the shell!

I'd tell you to do us all a favor then & throw on some plate mail & throw yourself at the mobs, however your already doing the 2nd part pulling stuff as THF which I do realize being a puller in Dynamis is an equally important role.

You obviously are quite intollerant so that's a false statement right there. Just about no one in this shell can recall me having any real problems inside the shell & here you go off on a tangent & start posting shit like this & lighting cannons. The only imcompetence is yours, reguardless of how tired you may get of doing something for the betterment of your shell, YOU are it's leader & it is your responsibility to lead with a coolhead on your shoulders. Lately you've been anything but coolheaded, except for during these last Beau & Xarc runs. I can't even believe you'd be so stupid as to call me lazy or incompotent...who was is that came to you & other members of this shell's leadership asking lots of questions about each dynamis zone, the mobs & my role & duties in each one & then went out of his way to do some homework for each dynamis & write out several cheat sheets. My cheat sheet for Beau alone is actually 7 pages & I quickly flip through all the pages of whatever Dynamis we're doing every second of a run & with 7 pages, Beau is a bitch, but hey I do it because to be good at my job it's required.

So in my conclusion, take that horse-shit coated tongue of yours & stick it up your rear where it won't do anyone else any harm. I was ready to continue & put things behind us, not at all expecting an appology from you or any consideration, because I knew nobody could get those things from you, but after this crap I'll gladdly drop shell & find a more competent leader. This shell rocks, it's sad however it's leader doesn't. Good luck to the rest of you in your future runs & I'll see some of you doing some of the other things we do & in exp parties, etc. Just because earning lotting rights in this shell took so long, is still not enough to put any pressure on me to put up with this brand of bs & stay only to endure more of it. Hopefully Pere doesn't feel threatened by this post & doesn't lock or delete it like prior ones & leaves it open to discussion with the rest of the shell. Many times have I heard that drama is not allowed during runs & to take it to tells or to the boards, well these are the boards.
 
Well this all came straight from my now former shell's private forum. Peregrine locked the topic as a display of his need for total control, I reopenned discussion for other members to give opinions & the only thing I got was Zylia (whom I've noticed lives near Pere IRL) change from understanding to vulture in just a few seconds, for the new topic was locked & her attitude matched that of Peregrine. Just another tack up on the wall of shame, my shame for ignoring his attitude this whole time because it wasn't really ever directed at me & I was too concerned about losing lotting rights I had to work hard for & because I enjoy Dynamis so much & want AF2 & the chance at upgrading to Excalibur & the relic shield to make my PLD better.
 
God forbid he actually has to make decisions and lead the shell he owns. I believe this might call for an "I told you so."
 
Well I just tossed my pearl in the Paladin flag quest well in Davoi, but it spit it back up at me.
 
People like you, Iso, ruin the experience.

Talk to me in game please.

The well has taste.

Now taking bets on what Pere says in reply.

10g on somthing about Fanboy.
 
Just ask about him on GameFAQs if you want to know what they think about him. He's not even on the same server as most of the people that post there and nearly everyone hates him.
 
I would, but I have work in the morning & it's a Monday (very busy day for most businesses I deal with). I've already overextended myself nearly an hour now, I shoulda been in bed already. If you wish to talk in-game I'll be happy to oblige tomorrow after work unless it's going to be more of the same.

qft

i'm surprised the entirety of invictus hasn't kicked peregrine really, you have better pullers you salvaged from valkurm, you have better leaders who don't make your linkshell a laughing stock every time they make a post and aren't so full of themselves as to be talking down to everyone they talk TO... in fact, Can anyone point out a good side to having peregrine lead your linkshell?
 
lol...this makes me want to take it all right back!
You were a bad decision, Isotope. Should have never gave you a second chance. And third. Fourth. Fifth. Sixth. Seventh.
 
I hear by declare any thread, post, private message, subforum containing the user name "Peregrine" as no-content. Lock.

that's unfair, that post virtually deprived him of his ability to post without proving you right....

i was hopeing he'd come up with somthing original. Curse my high expectations of sewer dwelling insects!
 
Isotopes, You see why i didnt wanna join that shell? I really dont ever want to see myself working under or for Pere. I rather have no dynamis shells then to join His.
 
Just a clarification. I live in NY. Peregrine is in Kentucky.

Isotope. Theres several people who sent me tells after seeing what I posted on that forum in support. Non-leads. People who are even reading this thread who are still saying that what I did was fine.

You.
Do.
Not.
Listen.
Bottom line.

If anything is learned from this, do not invite Isotope to you're linkshells. Bad decision.

That's why they were locked. I've never locked anyone elses posts. Honest to god. We tell you something. You babble more about your own initiatives. We tell you no, you keep babbling. It has to end at a point. Sorry.

Ask anyone who knows me personally. Outbursts like that from me are few and far between. You really have to do something serious to irk me.
 
lol wth it unlocked?
You really want to do that for really real?
