FIRST: Im going through all this effort to tell you how the “community” I form part of feels about the tittle of your thread and your 1st post that justifyis it.
Given that… again… as you personally said: 99 groups did not insult you in any way. And I personally never insult people either. Regardless of what happens in the key.
And SECCOND: I am not denying how you feel. Im just saying the harsh reality: Its a total over-reaciton. In other words, you can feel frustrated for stupid reasons. I never denied you feelt frustrated. I just mentioned the stupid reasons.
It doesn’t mean you couldn’t get home and have a whinge about it to your partner does it? Or are you suggesting every bit of bad behaviour that isn’t news worthy you should just brush off and isn’t worth mentioning? What a society we would live in if every small behaviour went unchecked and people no longer had shame being awful people.
(A) Trolls are not news. They exist in RL too. Its an unnavoidable part of engaging with the internet. Even in the early 2000s with MSN there were Trolls…
I never said that was OK. What I said is that the Ignore tool is there for a reason. USE IT and move on. It’s the only thing that works with Trolls. And beleive me, people have spent decades trying to fight them with no avail…
(B) OP deliberatelly put “Community” in the title of the tread. I form part of that community. I NEVER insult anyone for any reason. I dont even comment on anything.
Why am I put on the same category as people that do “verbal abuse”??? Why do I form part all of a sudden of a “toxic” community?
Its FALSE. Especially when OP himself stated that 99 groups went fine. It was just ONE that had the abuser…
You can’t tell me how the community you are part of feels otherwise you’re guilty of the same generalisation that you’re accusing me of. Fixed it especially for you I hope you feel really liberated.
Most things that people get frustrated about are for small or seemingly insignificant reasons, except it isn’t insignificant to them. Otherwise everyone you ever met other than people on that day that had family die or lost their job etc would be beaming with joy. Little things like people smelling of body odour annoy me. Talking on loud speaker on their phone in public. These things don’t ruin my day but I’m sure as hell allowed to be annoyed by them regardless of how many ACTKHULLYS you reply with.
If I do that with my partner, I would get a weird look. As in: “That is leterally the ONLY thing interesting and positive that happened today?” The only thing of value to share in your day was a grumpy grandma in the super market?
And the followup would be: If nothing of interest happened, why are we wasting time on a grumpy grandma instead of watching Huntrix on Netflix?
If you and your partner find Netflix more interesting than each others interactions throughout the day I’m sorry for you but most couples DO discuss both positive and negative things they experienced throughout the day. Your partner has a rough day and needs some emotional support and you bang on Netflix
Absolutely. But a grumpy grandma at the supermarket dosent qualify as “rough day”…
Being scolded by your boss for making a mistake is a rough day. Fighting with your father is a bad day…
If I tell my partner that I had a “rough day” because of mundane interactions like that she would thing I need therapy.
And YES. Sometimes nothing of intereset happened at all. “today I just worked and that’s it”. It happens more often than you think. So yes… sometimes watching Netflix is the appropriate thing to do with your partner.
If your partner got verbally abused at the supermarket whilst doing the grocery shopping and got home expressing their frustration saying something like “people are so rude when I’m trying to get groceries” would you tell her “NOT ALL SHOPPERS - I SHOP AND DON’T APPRECIATE BEING PUT IN THAT CATAGORY” as you’re browsing your multiple streaming services?
“Rude” and “Verbal Abuse” are not the same thing. Its not the same word. That is first and foremost.
And seccond, my partner knows to differentiate the value people have. If I am rude to my partner, its much more impactfull and important than a stranger in the street.
And third: My partner knows how to communicate. “PEOPLE are rude” is not what he would say. “ONE grandma was rude” is what he would say. Unlike you.
And DUDE… Stop making such a fuss about all this… USE the ignore tool…
I wish it existed in RL… trully… I have an annoying boss you know? I would LOVE to simply put him in ignore and live my life as if he did not exist. How cool would that be?
JEES… Blizzard gives you all the tools at your disposal to filter out the people you dislike. But instead you sit there and take their garbage? Just to fill up the forums with even more garbage?
If I would lose my about every time somebody looked at me “funny”, I would live a very stressful life indeed…probably not a long one either cause doubt your heart would take so much constant rage and stress.
Instead of arguing with the know baiters and toxic people, join the communities that actually work on getting people through Mythic+ dungeons without the stress, abuse and just outright bad takes.
The no-pressure community for example is really good, even got me back into tanking dungeons at the moment for random people.
It’s not worth sacrificing your sanity on people who are part of the problem, especially when solutions exist.
It’s not his fault that dps ninja pulls but it would be his fault if he dies. Because in this scenarios the ninja pull is either doable or the entire group wipes. But there is not such thing that tank melts and can’t survive. It’s much more likely that people die before the tank dies.
This kind of scenarios are super rare anyway, even in mid keys and in the range where it happens, there is never any real threat to tank, you don’t even need any major CDs at all.
I can tank on my Guardian Druid up to 11 without using barkskin once.
People can be awful.
Sadly, WoW isn’t an escape from it - cause it contains people.
I’m just happy there is solo content; and that the group content that exists - I can do with friends.
Look, for example, if the tank keeps pulling only 3 mobs at a time and someone “ninja pulls” 5 more to make it an actual somewhat right pull and the tank dies, it’s still the tanks fault.
The ninja pull has to be extreme in order to make a tank die. But either way, this is an exception anyway and absolutely not the point. The key point here is that tanks don’t require healing and if the ninja pull is so bad that a tank can’t live, then the healer won’t be able to heal through anyway because everyone will die before the tank anyway. Take HoA for example. A bad pull here is not healable, it is what it is.
Everyone who says that tanks need healing and can’t sustain themselves, simply has no idea how to play his tank. Don’t shoot the messenger.
i would love for you to show us your amazing tank skills and show us how you can live though big pulls in +10 on 690 itlv char without a single heal pull after pull
about every time somebody looked at me “funny”, I would live a very stressful life indeed…probably not a long one either cause doubt your heart would take so much constant rage and stress.
i dare you
