Am I really the only one that is fucking boiling inside when you are in certain random PUGs... and gets pointed out as the bad guy for lawfull comments.

i.e.
Tempest Spine, full group. The leader and his buddy decides to do all the optionals meanwhile the rest of the group is waiting for that rune that he picked up to finish this shit Q that we only run for XP these days.. so, I was making just a slight hint that we were all waiting for him to get here so we could finish the quest and the group went bananza on me. I felt like Michael Douglas in Falling Down...  'Am I the bad guy?'

Was there really no one else in this raid that felt that this guy and his buddy was wasting everyones fucking pot and time, and that he was being a selfish cunt? Nothing wrong about being a selfish cunt but why are these cunts so protected by the majority.

I have seen people boil over for good reasons and always sent a support tell when they get bullied and sometimes even dipped my finger into the party chat....

Are people really that fucking scared of pointing stuff out or support people that say obvious fucking grievances?

(before you say anything, I rarely join groups just because of this, and I have no problems with taking it a bit slow at times)

Well, it's no secret that DDO's community is retarded. A quick look at the motherboards or reddit will show you the caliber of the typical DDO player. It's an interesting study into the Dunning Kruger effect too: that the dumbest and most incompetent players are the most condescending and rude know-it-alls.

I gave up on the DDO community a long time ago. At least here on the vault, everyone's at least honest about their hatred for one another.

I´m a fairly laid back bloke, so don´t come at me with your pre-jesus shit.

I digress, are we this PC now?

In Falling Down, Michael Douglas actually was the "bad guy."
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Like every group, there are schlubs and there are stars, and a lot in between. Pick your cause and I can say the same thing about the associated group.

Pretty much describes the world today.

If someone is realistic, they're perceived as negative and the people flock together to strike that person down despite thinking the same as the person they want to kick but were too afraid to say it themselves because they knew they'd get smashed.

Actually, I think it's always been like that.  The difference in today's world is you get to do it anonymously, with ease.

I know that back in the day I would be fucking screaming in-game for that fucking twat to get to the rest of the group and finish the quest and I got away with that unreasonable behaviour for years... Guess, I´ve grown soft over the years.

Playing other games I don´t really see this kind of general  behaviour, the group would turn on you in a second if you decided to side-track a dungeon.

You joined a random pug.. and then got upset because they didn't run it the way you like?

...

...

...

Most folks would call that 'entitlement'..  but at the very least.. don't join that persons random pugs?

It's not like you could have taken on a couple of the optionals yourself rather then just sitting on your ass..

oh... wait...

Whenever I join somebody else’s PUGs I automatically assume somebody’s gonna take a dump in the punch bowl, so I like to pre-medicate with copious amounts of marijuana and a good single malt scotch.

Yepp guilty, I joined a pug. 10/12 was waiting for these 2.

The anti-pug sentiment got one more notch on my porch, soon I will be were some people have been since 2009 -- just not giving a damn about pugs to the state where you might as well be playing on wayfinder.

Only if you get drunk enough to be the person in the PUG that takes a dump in the punch bowl.

Leader decides how the quest is run.  Not some rando pug joiner.   You can absolutely make a suggestion about doing a fast for XP run but if the leader wants to do the optional stuff, they are the leader.  It’s their group not yours.  You choice is to stay and do it that way or drop group and form your own that runs it your way.  Being toxic in party chat isn’t a good solution, even 5 years ago.   

To be fair tho, a good leader will put in their lfm info that they are doing the full run, not the fast run.  So you know what to expect when joining.   If they didn’t do that, they can expect some questions and possibly frustration.  If they did and you are still mad, then that’s on you.

This perfectly reasonable advice is not going to fix OP or the retard leader who screams at their pug because they've lost control of the raid.

Some people play DDO because it gives them a feeling of petty authority when they run groups.

Other people enjoy DDO because they get to f*** with other people's Petty authority.

The cycle of dickheads and dick grinders continues. All hail the glorious pug.
