Was it a taru?

Well with the one specific example that comes to mind it was the mithra WHM for our LS Promyvion - Holla fun.

I'm pretty sure the FFXI re-installation process is designed to ward off returning players.

Peeve. Ls pty thats stable, then the more or less jack off of the shell wants to switch camps. Then during an unexpected link he just stood there, his dd buddy warped, causing me as pld, the whm, and rdm to die. >_>

When I'm farming somewhere, and perfectly fine and alone by myself for hours, and someone else shows up, same exact spot as me, killing the same exact mobs. Christ, there are other places to farm people, why do you have to screw someone else?

One, we invited this dumb BLM that couldn't so much as keep up with the party. We were going through the tunnel in Valkrum Dunes and he gets lost, and the conversation went. "Where'd you guys go?"

"We went out the otherside."

"Hello, guys? Guys? Where did you go?" *collective groans as we go back for him. He dies and heads back to his home point before we found him.*

It's always been my experience that the tank is the party leader, even if he's not the quote-unquote party leader. When I played WoW, we got the group together, and then just handed leadership to the main tank. So, if the tank moves, unless he says "Stay here" or you know what he's doing, you step to and follow. Your camera should always have the main tank in view, -unless- a combat situation doesn't allow. I thought it common sense, though, to anyone involved, that if the guy who was tanking and provoking in the last few fights is the guy you want to follow. And all that being said, the cave wasn't even cavernous. It was a tunnel. <==========> One entrance, one exit, no deviations.

Lesson learned? Never invite anyone who spams versions of "I need a partyyy!" and whispers you "Invite me to your party!" and all sorts of other pratish things.

People camping the exact same mob I am because I turned down partying with them.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I think it's been said before, maybe even by me, but, if you want me to be in a party don't send me tells like this:

>>> {party}

This may seem kind of shallow of me to complain about, partying is partying, but at least give me a {Do you need it?} to go with it.

Not as bad as blind invites...

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

But still almost as bad. Maybe it's snobbish of me, but I want a little more than >>[Party] when being asked to join. Some info about where, or for how long, or with how many members would be great. It's never too soon to start building good party building habits.

Why'd you turn down partying? Did you want to solo, and if you did, then why?

[Murphie]

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I've turned down parties lots of times because I'd rather solo at my own leisure.

A - I wasn't going to be there for long
B - In Bibiki my BLM solos fine.
C - Adding a BLM and a DRK doesn't increase my safety by any appreciable value, especially considering they didn't last long.
