Alot of people are probably suprised I didn't make this thread sooner...and alot of you even asked me not to make such a thread...unfortunately, I'm pretty compelled to, so here's a neat little story.
I've known Weaponslayer for quite some time...don't even remember when I first met him. Seemed like a nice guy, though he also seemed to be as unstable as a Jenga puzzle after forty moves. He liked helping with things, including camping NMs and farming...but most of the time it was things like 50-50 farming HKTK eyes.
Some time ago, around August, he became a little...obsessive. He'd send me /tells, if I didn't respond within 30 seconds he'd go on about how I must hate him and how I "used him to get things". Around that time I'd joined a social shell (not naming), and was farming Iolites with them...things were going good, but then the group starting asking in /p and /say "Why is Weaponslayer asking about you?" - it turns out he was /sea whoring me, and asked the ENTIRE ZONE if they were partied with me and what I was doing. He tantrumed to them that I'm a total backstabber for not inviting him along after all he's done for me, and stealing "his way of making money". Awesome. Then suddenly, he 180'd and asked to be in the shell for the sake of being in the same shell as me...then he started hitting on the LS leader. He persisted in pestering her and a few members of the shell for a good five hours before he casually said "night" and logged...yes, blacklist was used, but it also had to be used on all of his mules, as he logged onto them in an attempt to continue to harass us.
This sortof blacksheeped me in the LS because they had no way of knowing if I was really using him or not...f-!k, alot thought I was actually TOGETHER with him, used him for money, and dumped him because of the way he spoke of me. That, and other minor ingame/major RL troubles stressed me past a limit and resulted in me bitching out the leader - a very, very embarassing time for me, but it wouldn't have happened if I didn't get some red flag put on me due to Weaponslayer's saerch whoring and constant harassment of members of the shell.
Fast forward a month or so, I've cooled off and talk to him once every few days [yes, I'm way, way too forgiving...], but it's mainly a "how are you?" and crap. Doesn't seem like a big deal, I generally don't talk to him beyond that...but at one point he asks what I'm doing. Stupidly, I respond: "I'm trying to get those new Pirate Clubs". He shows up thirty minutes later and helps camp, without request (he helped for a good 10h or so total, in which we managed to get BB's club); I thanked him, Reishu, Bajaratt, and Myihta, all of whom dedicated quite a bit of time towards helping me camp. (especially Cochoco, who helped kill Silverhook and got drop, and even passed when she was camping too...). I've offered to pay them all back, none of them ever say yes, and I feel guilty for using so much of their time, but I guess that's the sortof things friends do...[except for the fact that recently Weaponslayer CONSTANTLY brings up how I used him, especially in this case, when I never asked him to come out and help AND he said not to worry about it when I asked if there was any way to pay him back. -_-;]
In the recent months he's seemed to want to hang out more, and he seemed to have cleaned up his act...tried farming for Aero IV/Tornado, Water IV, farmed HKTK eyes, all of it was split 50-50. No one owed the other anything...only exception is that recently, we've farmed SSG twice, and both keys used were his. I offered to cover cost of one, he shrugged it off. Asides some random pickups and dumb comments, everything seemed fine.
Then suddenly, I get this crap a few days ago. "I love you." "I mean I want you." "I mean hello. >.>". Cute, really. I blow it off, because he tends to make stupid comments like that from time-to-time, then I get this crap: "So I hear you're doing a Swift Belt run soon. How come you didn't tell me about it? I see how it is, you're just using me and now gonna do something I need behind my back when you know I need it. All you ever do is use me."; I respond, telling him my friend is TRYING to get me and Klank on a Sacrarium run that MIGHT have a run afterwards, I didn't know if we'd do a run or not and I was a guest in it anyways, so it wasn't my choice if he could go..."Uh huh, and you're just going to conveniently get some swift belts while you're at it"...aaand back to the whole "after all I do for you, blah blah blah, you always use me" bullsh-!t...
...And frankly, I'm just sick of it now. I've given him more than the amount of chances he deserves, thinking he might somehow change and just be going thru a crappy moment in life but he's just some bipolar, obsessive little turd who thinks I owe him the world because he's helped me on a few things, most of which I didn't even offer for help from in the first place. And even if I DID owe him, you'd think it'd be called semi-even that I help him farm Golden Eyes because he can't f-!king solo them.
I'm posting this to the general public, in case he's spewing a bunchof bullsh-!t behind my back like he has in the past - I'm taken by Klank. I'll remain that way. Never been with Weap, I sure as f-!k never, ever will. Any time I've felt I've owed him he's refused to be payed back.
And Weap, you have an Osode, a Maneater, a Woodville, 96 or so Goldsmithing...stop bitching about being poor, good god.
Might be overlooking a thing a two that I've forgotten at the moment, I'll get back to this if so.
