    Giving glue to monkeys = bad idea.

    I was doing my daily Borg Cube mission for the Competitive marks.
    I assume there was a player new to the console for the tube, because they kept misaligning the colored lines and the shield never went down.
    Then there was an announcement that the tube was resetting.
    Since I'd never seen this happen before, I naturally paused to watch it.
    At this point, considering the other team was in the endroom, I didn't figure it was worth continuing to fight and holstered my weapon to wait for the rewards to be granted.
    Then I get this PM:

    I think there are certain players who are so inflexible that if anyone departs from zergrush full on attack tactics for whatever reason, they get snitty.
    I think they assume that someone who isn't fighting, even for a few seconds is being a leech (from their point of view).
    In the above scenario, we'd already lost, so why should we keep fighting?

    And it isn't the first time I've had to deal with players like this.
    1. Someone kept triggering the Thalaron Pulse in KASE and because my ship was highly manoeuvrable/fast, I was able to dodge out of the way. Got attitude for not fighting enough.
    2. Dummyspit followed by ragequit when I suggested the team change tactics at the first transformer set in Cure Ground, because zergrushing wasn't working. We'd been at this transformer for 15 minutes and failed the optional......

    I hope these are kinds of players aren't common.
    I truly cannot comprehend someone who doesn't, as the Borg put it, adapt when circumstances change.

    Play the game how you like and if you get lip from morons like that? put them on your iggy list, as long as you are having fun who the hell gave them the right to tell you othewise.

    as far as your situation? id have done the exact same thing id have holstered, grabbd a martini maybe a lawn chair , sat back and enjoyed the conselation prizes :)

    Or glue their hands together so they can never use a keyboard again.......

    Too many admirals on the bridge.

    That's what we get for everyone having the ingame rank of Vice Admiral, it encourages certain delusions of power in certain individuals.
    Now let's bump everyone back down to Captain rank......

    Bees like honey, they don't like vinegar.
    Everytime someone makes a character that is an copy of an existing superhuman, Creativity is sad :'(
