Because the smoke was in the air.
Yes, this is true. Without a legal requirement to keep smoke out of the non-smoking section, it didn’t work. And in any case, keeping a truly separate section would still have exposed employees to the smoke.
So if I’m arguing for building a smoking restaurant, that will not take up any physical space, will not release any smoke into the air, will not expose anyone to any smoke who is not already smoking, why would anyone be against that?
…I mean, maybe because they like queing, getting a suboptimal tank, kicking them, and knowing that because they’re already in, they get to fill first.
If they won’t take a suboptimal tank, I think it’s a reasonable ask that they say so, and thus don’t waste anybody else’s time while they exploit the system to waste 30 minutes of somebody else’s time so they can save 2 minutes of theirs.
I’m not exactly seeing why this comparison works.
The tank’s job is easy.
Just need to do a few simple things:
- Knowledge - know what needs to be done in the dungeon
- Lead the group into combat.
- Pull and hold aggro (just smack things)
- Stay put! And only move to move a boss out of a devastating AOE effect.
That’s it.
Healer’s job is easy too:
- Keep healing and protecting the tank, first and foremost
- In between healing tank, heal self
- After #1 and #2, heal the DPS
- See #1
The healer should not be doing anything else whatsoever.
Easy job.
DPS job is the easiest:
- Follow the tank
- Attack anything attacking the tank
Anything other activity is erroneous and will risk wiping the group.
Everyone should:
- Stay out of AOEs
- Stick together, close to the tank
- Follow the tank exactly, don’t go wandering off
I’ve only seen 2 vote kicks in the 200 or so queued dungeons I’ve run this expansion, and I initiated both, because some animals should be punished for their behavior.
In keys, the typical issue in chat is that pulls are too small (it’s always warlocks mouthing off). If I’m tanking I hard ignore these, they usually shut up when we time the key anyway.
Other than that, there really arent a lot of rage issues in keys, the vast majority of the time a key is bricked people just leave without a word. Generally you will know when the timer is lost and can move on. Though this is why Necrotic Wake is the worst dungeon this season, you know nothing for sure unless the group doesn’t screw up on stitchflesh.
the fact that people need to ask this is what’s troubling about that side of the community.
It’s called making and playing with friends who have similar goals and expectations.
So why should the nonabusive group have to do this, while the abusive group dominates the ques?
if you tank as a vulpera, i am required by the laws of jokes and references to pick you up and yell.
“SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!!”

I think I’m forced to be death knight or warrior, then. I know I can’t be paladin or druid.
i mean i can do the same if your a mage too, treat you like a automatic gun with that arcane barrage, or a flamer if your a fire mage.
I wonder how many of you say you’re going to pull abysmally slow so specs like Enhancement can opt out of fire nova.
lets be real. If they wanted to cut out abuse they would perma ban people that do it. There’s a reason why you dont talk crap in ff14.
If people had to hit a checkmark to be “forgiving” and then were not, then I would be perfectly fine with blizzard permanently banning them. Not because I think they deserve it for talking crap to another player, but they gave their word that they wouldn’t and still did.
That or blizzard just bans people that talk crap period. Then you get even more silent dungeons because lets be honest, the community in ff14 is mostly held together by a competent story telling team while wow is held together by ducktape and furrys hugging each other.

I feel bad for tanks. It seems like a large portion of the playerbase has completely forgotten the tank should control the pace of the dungeon.
If they want faster runs, why don’t they just get into a guild? Do they just want to harass random people for not playing exactly the way they want?
I don’t know if I would, because they don’t think they are the problem. They think the slow people who steal 2 minutes of their precious, precious time, are the problem. If they que in as forgiving and aren’t, and the group is suboptimal, maybe, just maybe, they’ll understand that they deserve what they get.
