Second time I've run into Mythic Raid Griefers. (Mythic Raiders Beware)

Several days ago, and again today, Ive queued up for a mythic raid like I do every day. Last week, this occurred in Mythic Trial of Valor and today in Mythic Nighthold.

Everything starts off fine, and then we get to the point where we get to the first boss. As expected, we burn the boss down within 20 seconds.

After the first boss dies, our raid leader starts mass kicking every single person from the raid, laughing while doing it, saying “enjoy your lockouts!” So that none of us who was in that raid can run mythic nighthold again that day.

This is the second time I’ve run into morons like this, and I was wondering if this is something that is reportable. Can this get someone banned? Because this is absolutely moronic and immature that its this easy for someone with clearly NOTHING better to do to ruin mythic like this for an entire group.

Can we please make it so that if you’re locked out of mythic, you can still run it again, just not get loot until you get to the point you left off?

Couldnt tell if it was the same guy who did it last week, or if it was someone else entirely. Hopefully its just one person who will get bored instead of it being some massive trolling effort where a bunch of people start doing this

yes report and tell others to do so too (those that were affected). you might get the last laugh afterall depending on how often they do it

This would be one of those things that clearly violates the code of conduct they make us agree to occasionally.

Yes this is reportable.

You don’t need to think twice.

I kick out afkers though and bring in players and replace the spot.

Were you afk ? If you had zero damage in the boss in 20 seconds.

You deserved to be kicked.

If you had damage and he ruined your game expierence. You can report.

That sucks. You have to wonder where people are in their lives that they would behave this way. Must be sad to be them.

I had a griefing experience in retail mythic pug last week. Just “Mythic 1st Two”, which is standard pug these days as first two bosses are very pug-friendly. I get there right away, help summon, and mention in raid chat that I will drop feast once we fill. We fill, Raid Leader asks me - by name - “Felfaadaern can you drop a feast please?”, then as soon as I drop feast immediately kicks me from group. Removing me from group was his perogative as RL, but to milk me for the feast knowing he was going to do that? It all worked out, as I joined another pug right away and we one-shot both bosses, but I reported them anyway. And that was the first player I’ve actually reported in years and years. Once again, must be sad to be them.

Sometimes we have to count ourselves lucky: we only encounter these lost souls briefly, while they have to live with themselves 24/7.

That frustrating.
I recommend forming your own group. Easy, as it will fill in less than a minute.

If this is true then it is 100% a disruption of gameplay with chatlog evidence and should be reported.

I would also suggest /ignore that particular character.

Can’t you fight fire with fire?

It’s an instance lock. So reform the raid group and go right back in. Have to 19-man it but who cares in this mode.

Just look at the damage meters to see who was in the group and reinvite them all.

This morning I was doing EN Mythic.

We split the raid so each group went to one of the four bosses.

Those of us on Ursoc jumped into the void as usual, and then we were stuck there for about 5–10 minutes because someone in the Eye group was kiting the slimes around.

Eventually, the raid leader kicked two or three people, and after a few more minutes, they managed to kill the Eye and we could finally revive.

No. Their group, their rules, and yes, they can remove anyone from their group for any reason.

Start your own group if you don’t like to be removed.

Start your own group. You can pick up from where you were removed.

This seems Ike a bait.

Are players really this low in life that they will do something like this. I have never experienced anything remotely close to this.

There can be some problematic players, but it is rare.

Oh hun, There’s a lot more than you think. Especially in the past months.

Sadly yes, and there are tons of them roaming wild.

You’re comparing a couple of bad faith actors to millions of players. They are quite rare.

I haven’t seen one in 17 years of my wow life. who is this gone.

Ok today I got invited to a key - got kicked for saying Go go go. But that did not shock me one bit. The leader was from Stormrage.

So I was well aware to expect something crazy like that.

But i still would not say that, that was toxic. Mentally unfit, yes but not as bad as what op said.

that is actionable by reporting

You’re wrong though, that behavior is 1000% against the community guidelines that they have us agree to and is a bannable offense if chat logs prove it was done maliciously.

I think so too. mythic raid ids work differently. people who say they could just inv the other 18 to make it 19 man are delusional. the leader who is being inside will hold the id while the rest that joins with another group will get spam ported out with a timer.
