A little backround on how I keep hate before I start to rant.
I do your standard Voke >> Flash >> Sentinal >> Cure >> Et cetera.
As a Paladin I know full well that I can and will lose hate sometimes. It's just a fact of life. So, as soon as I get into a party I chat with the DD for a bit and lay out some guide lines so they won't take hate away from me. Here's what I say, "Wait until the second voke before you go ape shit on the mob." Most take that very well and listen. But every so often you get a DD or two that feel like they just have to prove a point.
So here's what happened. I'm running out to Pashlow to do a little bit of farming for my Glut sword and I get a tell.
Leader >> Party?
Sky >> Sure. Where?
Leader >> Don't know yet.
So, I pull out my warp scroll and warp on out to Jeuno and get invited. Not long after, the Leader invites a MNK and a RNG. Oh joy. So here's the first thing I say, "Ya'll two wait for the second voke before going off on it, ok?" I get the usual {All Right!}. The RNG mentions somthing about a NIN and the first signs of a bad party begin to emerge. I forget exactly what he said aobut ninjas, but here's my response.
Sky >> Ninjas can't keep hate very well, it'll go all over the place.
RNG >> My main is Ninja. >.>
Now we're off to The Boyhada Tree to try out a spider. It's kinda risky with a 49-51 Party, but we went anyways. Well, long story short, I used invincible on the first spider, then it was decided that the place was too hard. But I liked of hat I saw from the DD.
Now it's been decided that we're going to The Quicksand Caves. The first couple of fights go well, but then the MNK starts up. Before the second voke the MNK unleashes Raging Fists and he gets hate. I'm able to get it back, but I tell him to wait on the second voke.
Well- No one likes teamwork apparently.
Now the Ranger starts pulling nonstop and we don't have a RDM. So I'm always lower than 50 MP. I tell him to slow down so I can get enough to keep hate:
RNG >> MMM, nah.
Same pull the MNK runs up before I even voke and does Raging Fists. Then the RNG unloads on him.
Sky >> Stop. Remember what I said about hate earlier? "If you really want to tank then I'll let you have it."
the Ranger starts to get a little smart assy.
RNG >> Fine, you DD.
So, I do. Hehe. The Ranger goes off and pulls a beetle and when he comes back I don't voke. The Ranger does nothing. So, the MNK gets the hate.
MNK >> Well are you going to voke?
Sky>> I thought the Ranger was tanking.
MNK>> Well, he's not. I am.
Sky>> Well, you better tell him to get it offa you.
Then at the end the ranger finally pulls out his bow and finishes it off.
Sky>> Why didn't you tank, Ranger?
MNK>> 'Cause I wouldn't let him.
RNG>> Fine, you don't want me to use my skills. fine.
Sky>> No, I didn't say that. Just wait until the second damn voke.
MNK>> Fine, i'll just tank. I'm better anyways.
SNAP!
Sky>> The Ranger did nothing that last fight.
MNK>> Whatever.
Sky>> Screw this.
That's when I leave the party. And that's when the screaming starts. The following has been edited due to language.
RNG>> You're pissed 'cause you can't keep hate.
Sky>> Well, I now damn well I can't keep hate if you have a ****ing death wish you stupid ****.
75 DRK>> What the *** are ya'll screaming about?
MNK>> The {Too Weak} PLD is ticked that I'm a better tank than him.
((Trying to retain some dignity, but failing))
Sky>> You know what's funny? The RNG did NOTHING that last fight you ****ing moron.
MNK>>> **** you!
Sky>> Psh, I don't need this.
MNK>> That's right, you better run before you tick the wrong person off and get banned by a GM.
Sky>> The wrong person?
Sky>> Try it.
75 DRK>> Take you're screaming to tells, no one wants to hear this.
65 THF>> ((It's pry best if you just left.))
RNG>> Thank you!
Sky>> Hey, I didn't start this.
Well, I just left after that.
My point is that no one like teamwork anymore. If I do every thing in my power to keep hate and you still take it, I'm not the one doing anything wrong. You have to work together in parties. I'm sorry to the DD, but your damage doesn't mean diddly-squat if you die.
