Complete fucking douchebags.
I have two stories on this:
The other day I'm trying to make level 17, so I start a party and all we needed was a second tank. We get Talan. He acted like a douche but was pretty much all the choice we had for a tank. The next 45 minutes were marked by Talan voking poorly and constant annoying immature bs from same. Anyhow, the primary tank had to /logout, so we're stuck with Talan as primary tank (We did finally manage to pick up a WHM.)
So we're sitting outside Selbina and exp chaining anything IT when the WHM get's DC'd, and I do the what I believe to be the right thing and take over healing completely. All of the sudden, I get enough hate to where the Gob comes after me and I take two hits before I give a hearty "<Help me out!> <call0>." :?
Nothing. I try to Zone it, die, and two fucking minutes later Talan finally responds (and this is a direct quote):
"sory, my dog ran n front of the tv and diconnected the ps2 controller."
Shitty spelling aside, does it take 2 minutes to reconnect a controller!? :evil:
Anyhow, it was past my bedtime so I decide to go, give hearty /waves to all.
Second Story.
Im running through La Theine farming for money to get a Power Bow for the Mog Safe quest - without my Seek flag on. I get a tell from "Cans" (who, for the record, was an excellent player) asking if I want to join their EXP party in the dunes. Say sure and Cans replies, "Okay, Talan will invite you."
Fuckpoop. :x
So I decide to go anyway, and wait for my invite. Four minutes later, I send a /tell to Talan asking if he was going to invite me.
"no, we need a dd" was the reply.
Then I get a /tell from Neolithic (a friend of mine and a good player) that he's trying to get me into his party. I'm like "Great!"
"Talan will invite you."
Dammit. :x
That time I get the invite, and the first thing I do is send a /tell to Neolithic that Talan is the Worst. Tank. Ever. He responds, "I know."
The second thing I do is tell the whole party that if things look bad, I'm bailing out because I'd already hit level 17 three time and I'm in no hurry to do it again. They nod, especially Talan.
This was seriously the most pain I've ever experienced in a game since the Death Desert in Breath of Fire III. I guess the party was moving along okay (we were at J-6 in the dunes) but Casiuss was as immature as Talan was, and even a more retarded player (dying like three times over the course of 2 hours.)
This whole two hours consisted of constant fucking stupidity from Talan and Casiuss any time we weren't actively fighting - I ended up /blisting Casiuss while I was in the PT, and staying only to get EXP. FInally, I reached the end of my rope when Talan pulled a second Gob after Cans had stated "Incoming Gob" clearly around ten seconds earlier.
After being reduced to 20hp and 39mp, and talan being unable to voke because he's near death, I /tell the WHM and Neolithic (the second RDM, I was the first): "Fuck this, let's bail."
I use my crystal-clear "I'm bailing" macro. This macro consists of the following:
/p <Run Away!><Danger><Jumping to a new Area!> <call0>
/wait 5
/p <Run Away!><Danger><Jumping to a new Area!> <call0>
(if that isn't clear, I don't know what is)
Neolithic, the WHM, and I make it to Selbina alive (as well as Cans, the puller, who ran a different route) And we get bitched at for Zoning.
Combined with the immaturity, the sexual innuendo because I play Mithra, and just the sheer fucking idiocy, it was the worst two hours Ive spent with the game.
The only plus is that I got my Skull for Sub-Job. Now I just need 1k Exp.
