So I was just in an AC run and while we were at the spider queen fight we had a ranger who was standing up on top of the wall and not coming down. Told them to “come down” (my words exactly) and they said I was rude and starting cursing up a storm at me. Well they later kicked me from the dungeon before we could finish it and when I looked back at the chat log to report them for basically kicking me for no reason (was going to report for verbal abuse) and the chat log was gone. Is this a new feature since patch? What is one to do now when a group decides to be shady like that and kick someone before they can finish the dungeon?

Party chat leaves you window when you leave a party. Anet still has access to it. What you encountered was that the majority of this community prefers to auto attack fights, not enjoy the game content.

The american way…the most you can get for the least effort.

What’s wrong with that?

Later during the Kholer fight the same ranger had tunnel vision and was dpsing kholer while another member of our party was down right next to them. I could understand them getting upset if I was being a rude kitten but I wasn’t I merely told them to come down so me and the one other person down by the spider queen weren’t the only ones getting focused by the little spiders that spawn.

Well I reported the party “leader” because his username was the only one I could remember. But I don’t think anet will do anything because I reported the party leader for verbal abuse but he/she wasn’t the one who was cursing like a sailor lol.

if they are rude towards you for no reason while your in the dungeon, then why didnt you report them right then and there ????
also, taking screen shot of the party helps, or just hte names in chat so that you have their names at least.

you may not encounter idiots on a daily basis but once in a while you will run into them and at that time its good to have something to remember them by so you can report them.

I don’t like to be “report happy”, I’d rather just finish, and put them on ignore when I’m done. Less work for anet I guess.

So you reported a person for something he didn’t do just to have some form of vengeance. I can’t see how you are any better than people who kicked you.

Yeah, agreed. That was a seriously idiotic and rude thing to do to an innocent player.

They were with each other, same guild and he admitted to initiating the kick when I sent him a tell asking for the other players username. Figured that anet would look back at the chat logs and see what happened and punish accordingly, if at all.

However, this does bring up the issue that anet needs to revamp their reporting function with a text box that allows you to describe the situation. IMO their catch all categories for reporting don’t allow you to get detailed enough for specific incidents.

But hey, I bet you often make judgements without first knowing the entire story?

Remember to ALWAYS be the dungeon starter when you’re with pugs. Always drag them down with you if they do kick you.

My guild group had an annoying pick up member, telling us what to do at every instance, no pretense of any other communication – ie kind of rude. (all this despite telling him we had done the run many times – not to mention myself and others were in full CoF armor no less).

We never said anything bad to him; completed the run and declined to do a second path with them. Simple, no one gets unhappy (except us and I assume them silently), no one got kicked (no fights went that badly; he just had no manners).

Sadly I don’t think I could have put up with the new AC and a party member that rubbed me the wrong way. I reckon instead of a kick; I would have left the party had I encountered it (and things weren’t going well).
[I wouldn’t have left with no communication, and would have apologized regardless of the circumstances if it came down to it].

That is what I normally do if it’s a horrible pug. Finish the path we’re on and leave as soon as I get my tokens without saying a word. If they were bad pug but happen to be polite players then I might give them a “sorry gotta go, something came up” before I leave.

Generally I’m pretty quite in pug groups. I normally don’t tell people “what to do” in dungeons unless we happen to fail at something repeatedly and I see people not doing what they need to do to pass whatever part we’re failing at. That being said, I didn’t tell anyone how to play, merely to “come down” during the spider fight because while the other pug and myself were soaking up the damage of the spider queen, they were there trying to range it from the top of the wall. I don’t know about everyone else but whenever I try to dps anything form that wall except for the gargoyle heads it goes invulnerable. That tells me that they’re sitting there not really doing anything but causing a wipe and that they don’t know who the encounter works.

Honestly; sounds like the guy was not thinking [and or not very intelligent]. If he had drawn agro he WOULD have caused a wipe as you say.

It really sounds like the group you pulled this time was just new to the game, children, just plain bad or a combination of the 3.

Sadly; it happens with full PUGS :/ (or where you yourself don’t know any others in the group). These days I have pulled together a guild big enough to field a dungeon run at least once a night, so I don’t have to deal with randoms very often.

You joined a party with a ranger, that’s your problem!

I saw what you wrote and it didn’t look good. Also I wasn’t the only one with such opinion. About the whole story argument – as long that party won’t tell their part of the story there is no way to tell what really happened. But I agree with you that there should be some general report with a text box so people could describe the situation. Right now you reported a person for verbal abuse, so someone who is looking at the logs will look for verbal abuse and it is possible that he’ll just think you abused the report system. I bet there are tons of reports and people checking it don’t have the time to check everything, so giving them extra info would help a lot. But that is just my wild guess, it would be nice if someone from Anet told us what they do when they get a report.
