Stupidest Reasons For Being Kicked Out Of Squad #2

I got kicked once, ever, but that's probably because I usually squad with friends.
Once I was in a bh39 squad on an alt, we also had a cleric who needed her fb39 done.
Squad was:
-level 48 BM (leader who was organizing the party)
-high level 80 barb (friend of bm)
-high level 80 sin (also a friend of the 48, guildies I think)
-level 39 cleric (her fb)
-level 50 something bm (also doing bh)
-me, level 40 something veno, doing bh

Anyway, the 80+ barb and sin run ahead and start killing mobs, barely giving any time for the cleric to get close enough to get her mobs done. Before the first boss, leadership was given to cleric so she could tab. This is where it all started going downhill. Barb tells everyone to stay back so he could pull the mobs around the boss with genie--fine, that's all well and good. Then, when time to fight the boss, barb and sin tell everyone to stay back, that they can kill on there own (pots etc). Barb and sin run forward to kill boss and succeeds. Afterwards they ask the cleric why she didn't heal *facepalm*.

The cleric was obviously a new player who was playing on her first character and that was fine; she asked alot of questions but she was a darling. She was such a sweetheart. She was obviously still getting used to playing her class, but she knew about the basic roles of clerics in squad like healing aggro, stacking ironheart purify etc.

When they asked her why she didn't heal them, she told them in the sweetest way that they asked them to stay back. They told her they meant everyone else, not her, she had to heal. They were flaming her like crazy, making it sound as if she was the worst player to ever play the game. I started defending her saying that they specifically said they had enough pots to kill the boss. They ignored me and we moved on.
Everyone went to turn in bh who needed to, when we came back and barb and sin were near the second boss;cleric lost. While we were turning in the bh quest, squad chat was filled with the sweetheart cleric asking ever so nicely to slow down a little bit so she could catch up and get her mobs, and the two 80+ replying that they were going slow. I came back in instance and there she was moving backwards completely lost. Apparently the barb and sin decided to run ahead clearing mobs without even giving a thought to the cleric. I asked her in pm why she didn't just ask them to come get her and she said she was afraid they wouldn't do it for her if she kept bugging them so she was trying to find the way on her own.

So we got to 2nd boss, cleric tabs, and probably because of the **** they gave her the first time, she starts healing and the mobs that come with the bird start attacking her--she dies. Boss dies, cleric didn't get credit for boss and lvl 48 bm asks for lead so he could invite a cleric to rez her. She said she had a scroll, but they convinced her to pass lead so she didn't lose any xp. She passes lead and is immediately booted. I was outraged at that- I told them they could obviously complete the bh without her, so why not atleast let her complete her fb? She's new, they were new once. They booted me. I was mad that I didn't get to complete my bh, but I was even more angry at the way they treated the poor cleric. Seriously, she was a complete sweetheart. Afterwards, I squad with her and invite a 90+ barb to help. She got the rest of the mobs and her last 2 bosses, I got the bh done. Everyone was happy and I made a new friend that day.

This is long, I know, but seriously...give people a break if they are new.

It is nubs like those two that ruin the game for the new people. As Azura said, I wish they were on LC.

During my early days, I had ( and still have ) a cleric. People deciding to play Rambo and show off how strong they think they are, left my experience as an ep void. I was never kicked out of a squad, but clerics can't fix stupid players.

And this is why there are so few clerics now.

Those assos are lucky to not be in my server.

Lets see. I'm rarely booted...if ever inside of instances, but here's my list. (Note to anyone reading this: WALL OF TEXT, and I TEND TO RAMBLE ON, so FAIR WARNING.)

I was in squad with a friend of mines. He and a few other people in that squad were going to do run an instance (I don't remember which one), and wanted my help. We were all apart from each other on the map, so I told them to let me know when they are ready. (I think that they were looking for more people too.) I was standing by Krixxix, to help anyone who was stuck there. I kill it for several newbies, and a barb comes and wants to join squad. I send the invite. However, both of us are high leveled, and neither of us need it. I'm talking to a friend of mines as well, and the barb asks for lead please. I figured that someone needed Krixxix...that's why everyone was there afterall. Next thing I know.... "You have been kicked from the squad." My friend pm'ed me because he got kicked afterwards too. Basically, the barb joined, and instead of dropping squad like a normal sane person would do, he kicked and disbanded the squad, and ran away.

*Been kicked while questing. They got there mobs before I did, and figured that they no longer needed me.*

*Been kicked while questing by a person asking for help. I was level 50's. The others were a level 20 sin, and a level 50 mystic. I buff the mystic who I see, and am insta- kicked by the sin. I saw him the following day, and asked why I was kicked. He did it for the LOL's.*

*Kicked after helping in an instance to help with bh39. I soloed the whole dungeon, and in the end, the psy kicks me to get sole possesion of the drops...which I give to people that I run with anyways. However, she kicked me after everything that I did, so I run up and take the 3 star items, and some of the DQ items. You kick me, I'll get you back.*

*Kicked during a bh39 run that I needed. I had went to turn in, and the bm kicks me. I'm pm'ing to get back, and after a while, I finally get invited back. There is one less bm too. Squad got him to pass lead to them, and kicked him for not inviting me back. (He wanted to help his friend with her bh, so he kicked me to help her. (She's a cleric too.) I knew a friend that needed bh39, so I asked for lead so that I could invite her, and informed the squad that she was a cleric that needs the same bh. They say sure. I send invite, and turns out that she's the same cleric that I was getting refused for. (Squad recognized her name immediately.) She apologizes for it, and says that she didn't know. In the end, I got my bh done, she got her bh done, the squad got their bh done, and the bm got to cry alone.

*Kicked for being too slow on my starter wings.

I've been denied squad for being a cleric, and they already have one.

*I rarely kick or leave squad, but here are a few moments:

I was asked to help with Jumong. I was across the map, and flew all the way there to do it. Turns out that the person already had done Jumong, and told me that I could do it for myself. (I didn't need it.) They were kicked afterwards for wasting my time.

A bh59 run. Someone needed help with it, I said Cleric, level 100 will give you a hand. Find a second cleric, or healer, and I can tank it for you easily. He says ok, then invites other people. Finally he invites a mystic...and then insta kicks the mystic and invites a sin. Me and an archer ask why he did it. He said that it was the mystics fb, and he didn't want to run it for her. He then tells me that I'll be healing and that's a clerics job. I told him that I'll be dropping to tank the mystics fb. The archer says he will too. I drop, send the archer and mystic a squad invite, get the mystic to get a few more people, and tank their bh, and the mystics fb for them. (The first squad found themselves down their tank, their healer, and one of their DD's all in 2 people.) That's karma for you.

Running bh59 again: A barb says that he needs it for his fb. I'm on my wiz at the time...level 2, and tell them that I'd help on my main. There is a sin in squad that goes level 2 wiz? O_O, so I give my name, drop and switch. I get on my cleric, and we run into the instance, and start clearing. (Barb was supposed to get more people, but didn't.) Fast forward, the barb is pm'ing the sin, and whispering to her that I'm him, and not to let his barb die. He's giving the sin orders, and bothering her to no end. However, what he didn't know was that me and the sin were on chat together, and I was talking about how nooby the barb was acting. (He cowered behind me more than my clerics pet tabbycat does), and pulled mobs by accident, forcing me to tempest to save him. That said, we beat zimo. I notice that he doesn't tab, so I confront him about it. He says its no need to, and he wants to save his tabs. I tell him that it is a need behind it, and the rep gained from those tabs is the reward for me and the sin to even be there. He runs off. We're almost at Ofo, and he finally invites another barb and a bm. Turns out that the two barbs were fc buddies though... So both made fairly ridiculous pulls. The bm was pretty good though. The sin leaves at this point, and whispers me to do the same. I tell her that I'm going to stay, because I try to see runs through. We get to Ofo, and the 90's barb falls into the hole, and runs in circles since he can't find the way out. For some reason, I run over to help him. (Mistake on part. I thought that he AOE'd the mobs while I was running. He doesn't however.) So I use IH...immediately get aggro, but realize it, so I cast absolute domain, plume shell, guardians light, and wings of protection to reduce their hits to nearly 1 damage point. The bm is quick though, and responds in time to AOE the mobs, so me and the bm finish the mobs. The 90's barb is still stuck in the hole, and running in circles. The 80's barb...whose fb it is, is standing patiently waiting, and safe away from us all. The bm gets stuck and glitches so that he can't move, so I say to myself, **** it, I'll tank Ofo. So I take Ofo, and reduce him to 3/4. The bm gets unstuck at this point, and the barb finally realizes where the ramp is that leads to his freedom. The barb needing his fb finally decides to attack, and Ofo dies. The barb however, does not tab, and at this point he is saying that he does not have any tabs. We go and kill Qianji afterwards. The 90's barb dc's at this point, and the bm has to leave. Me and the sin are still in chat, and lol'ing at how this is going. The sin tells me to leave squad now too, but I remain. I tell the barb to get more people, and I start to clear more. The barb does not however. We get to drake, and I tell him to get more people again. (Drake is the easiest in there for me to tank). I wasn't really feeling like the run taking longer, and for piling up ther repair bill. I tell him several times to get more people. He says No. I tank. You heal. I tell him no one last time, and warned him not to attack...

He attacks...by running into drake with his minions still around. I could have tempested and saved him, but I instead told him:

I warned you not to attack.

I told you to get more people.

(Barb dies, as I charge town portal.)

You didn't listen.

GAME OVER. (As I teleport out.)

I IM him later to tell him not to tell others that he's me, since I knew what he told the sin. He just laughed and denied it.

Running TT 1-1: Me, a level 80's seeker friend and a level 100 sin friend of mines were helping a few level 60's players that needed it. One of them is also a sin....who happens to be undergeared and in pk mode. We run through the instance, and when it comes time to put down drops, the undergeared sin charges town portal, and does not drop his items.

Now, what that sin forgot was that the level 100 sin was also in pk mode, so there is a level 100 cleric, a level 100 sin, a level 60's sin, a level 80's seeker all around the noob sin that did not teleport far away after dropping items. (He was still in that little outpost by TT.) We asked him for the drops. Turns out he npc'ed them. So we set a trap for him. He's invited to do another run, and while he runs to the instance, he's kicked from squad. I fly over him as the level 100 sin teleport stuns, and aps him to death. We all gather around him, and tell him that its punishment for being a drop thief. His friends then proceed to die as well. (Guilty by association in my friends eyes.) He asks me for a rez. I instead turn around and run towards TT with a yellow post over my head announcing in world chat that he is a drop thief and not to squad with him. He tells me F*** my mother. I say yes, F*** yours. His faction pm's me, and I tell them what happened...including his death at our hands. They promise to deal with the situation.

That's a few things that I've encountered which lead to a kick in one way or another.
