    idk if it's been brought up but there's a new subreddit that allows character names to be posted and has some amusing drama: https://www.reddit.com/r/TalesFromDF/

    I can't wait to show up on there.

    Lately I've been doing all my roulettes as healer and well, let's just say that healers have a hard time in leveling dungeons if the tank decides to pull literally everything. Had more tanks die on me this expac than all the other ones combined. Granted, some of them are undergeared or not very good at their job but other times it's just too much for me to heal even though I'm good at healing.

    No matter whose fault something is, I just try never to say anything that might rub someone the wrong way because I don't want some GM who doesn't give a shit about what actually happened to ban me for an avoidable situation.

    Some of the ignorance in that sub though trumps anything I've seen ingame thus far. Hope I never see some of that firsthand...

    Yeah... I'm not going near that subreddit lol. I already get exposed to the crazy and moronic enough as it is when doing DF, I rather not relive it.

    I will check it out for sure. I miss the days of the gimp/confused/wtf thread on BG.

    So there's this, where I guess the person who coded Ser Aymeric bot for discord is a creep and no one wants to use it anymore.

    It's drama...sorta...

    Turns out when you run a server with 10k people you're kinda super invested into discord bots and it turns out Ser Aymeric the best for FFXIV so I'm super aware of wtf happened. I got links on discord but I'm at work so this shit is gonna be verbal.

    Someone called out Lethys on twitter for several things. Notably being abuse and controlling and sending unsolicited NSFW shit from one person. In addition to this other people chimed in with similiar stories of not having a very great time in Gayorzea as a mod working with Lethys. To be clear Lethys was the head there.

    In the #MeToo call out there was also the discription that the discord bot was "Two lines of code" away from being used to spy on people. Which is why I heard about it. I personally don't find those fears credible (Its something that was called out 5 months ago and while the official Ser Aymeric response was abrasive as fuck meanwhile Roxas responded well and clairied things from their personal reddit account).

    Anyway fast forward a day or two and it turns out Lethys blew up on Roxas and Roxas stepped down from coding and development, revealed that most of the Patreon money was going to Lethys and not Roxas (Though this wasn't the point of their breakup. It was something Roxas let slide because Lethys wasn't making enough irl) and that Lethys has until the 24th to move Ser Aymeric to a new server.

    I don't know what the fuck we're going to do on my server since we kind of rely on Ser Aymeric to assign roles based off the data center/server and I don't think Kupo Bot performs those functions. Everything else I can move.

    I really hope Lethys can get some help though.

    September just started so we're already paid into Ser Aymeric's patreon for this month so I'll wait to see if the service continues past the 24th and wtf happens around that. Lethys is stepping down from Gayorzea and going to focus on Ser Aymeric which tbh I think is the best move he can focus on.

    Arthars was banned from FFXIV for using a parse and shit talking a player on his Twitch stream; he said nothing in game chat about the player. SE now using outside resources to ban players apparently after repeatedly saying they never do.

    doesn't seem like it had anything to do with parsing itself

    kudos for him accepting his punishment with grace

    I see no issues using a verified Twitch channel as evidence for in-game punishment. Unlike using something like a Discord log, faking your face, voice, and verification tag to fuck someone over via Twitch is a lot harder/impossible at this point in time unless you've got access to a great deep learning resource.

    Streamers using ACT to very publicly shit on other people has potential ramifications for everyone who uses a parser (heavier handed punishments etc.) so nipping that shit in the bud doesn't bother me at all. Keep that shit on the down low idiot.

    That'd be sad if true. Unless the DPS was just spamming 1111

    E2S. The Black Mage was doing absolutely dogshit garbage DPS. Like just fucking kick and blacklist them don't go on a fucking rant where you call them by name. Glad he owned up to it.

    Also E2S is a 100% uptime fight and basically everyone was trash except Arthars. The BLM was just exceptionally trashy.

    Pray that shit gets nixed before everyone and their mum is a perfect legend.

    That's not cool. I wonder if this is detectable on SE's side. If it's just packet sniffing maybe not, but I don't like cheaters. This is why people who get Ultimate titles are viewed with suspicion by the rest of the community. Because you never know if that asshole who's ruining your farm despite having a glow weapon bought their clear or is just having a bad day. And people who clear legitimately deserve not to be viewed with suspicion.

    It's likely using packets and some overlay or it's tripped a flag that re-enables hidden telegraphs. The fact that it's capable of tracking player movement to show hidden telegraphs is fucking wild. I didn't think we were at that point with REing this game. Seeing Protean track that dude is unreal.

    Limit cut was pretty rough starting out for most groups but you could run in a fucking circle and finish it with that. That'd go for Wormhole too.. Seeing exactly where Sacrament and Apoc Ray fires..LOL
