    It honestly sucks a lot that they ended up with the mob claim in the end, generally sea is one of the few areas that has an unspoken bond between shells, but in all honesty this is partially your fault. They stood there and rushed you into a premature pull and rushed your friend into a premature pull, thus causing death and the unclaim. They of course should have given you a little more time to get things situated as this was the initial pull and as everyone knows, sea can always get retarded on pulls/splits. Either way next time just be a little more precautious and don't jump the gun, probably the best advice out there.

    I have a theory that Drought is too fucking dumb to find this thread in Advanced again, and has been looking in the Newbie section where his posts clearly belong.

    Not praising him doesn't mean you aren't defending him. You made an excuse for his actions, right? 'He took an unclaimed mob'.

    Think of it this way- someone gets a box of doughnuts(I'm hungry). They just happen to leave their keys inside the doughnut place. They leave their doughnuts outside on their car and run back inside to grab their keys. It'll take max 30 seconds. Someone sees them and takes them without regard of who they belong to. That's considered stealing, yes? Well, same principle applies here.

    That really depends on the quality, and type of doughnut. I mean your normal cake doughnut is meh... but if it were a box of Raspberry Bismarks, well that's just fair game.

    But yeah, what the guys LS did was a dickmove, and it's sad that no one in that LS tried to put a stop to it. But, what can you do, either then call him an asshole and move on?

    Using a real-life example for in a game is pretty fucking dumb. The guy who popped may have wasted his time losing the pop but I'm sure he's not gonna kill himself over this, or rather I would hope. That Drought guy did a fucked up thing but it's also the dude's fault that popped. Doing a half-ass job when you have someone surrounding you isn't exactly smart.

    Oh if you only had been on Fairy the last 4 years....

    Khalil is correct. We're not condoning the action of the guy being a douche which we all seem to agree upon but regardless of how stupid the claim system works, Yellow is Fair Game. Some of you might not like that analogy and a lot of people thankfully are cool enough not to be fucking asses and take advantage of it but, some people can and will ignore this unspoken rule.

    If you can't handle that then that's your problem since SE doesn't care either way.

    How is dying and RRing to let the adds depop doing a half-ass job? Hell when you're low-manning any of the Ix mobs you will generally have to die.

    That's like saying zoning Ix DRG when soloing/duoing is stupid when that's the strategy for fucking killing it.

    I'm quite sure this LS knew that they were dying on purpose to get rid of the adds, but stole the mob anyway.

    He was probably told to stop posting by his LS cuz he was making himself and them, consequently, look like douchebags. They seem to care enough about their reputation to tell him to stop though, so it might've just been a misunderstanding.

    I wouldn't say it was excatly half-ass because the strat does work, However you have to be prepared to deal with people who don't give a ratsass about the morale implications of weather or not you popped it.

    Some shells who were starting out in sky got raped by a Byakko with our LS standing by waiting our turn to pop it, After they wiped, We claimed it, killed it and gave them the drops.

    We had no obligations whatsoever to do so since they fully wiped but I always believed that good karma will come back to you. This guy Drought tho I doubt he cares what anyone here has to say that much other then to probably come back and reply to egg some of you on with his "Yeah this cape feels good all over my wrinkled pecker!! ^^" and some of you will take the bait and flame him for it.

    It's over and done. A lesson sadly was learned by the guy who popped the mob that sometimes you're gonna lose claim on a mob you pop if you have to die to kill it. BSTs were bitching about this ages ago when being forced to swap pets to kill a mob because when you use leave & charm a new mob, the one you're fighting will go yellow for a split second between the charm and telling your new pet to fight it.

    If anything maybe he'll bring more people out to back him up on claim so he won't get douched over again.

    I can confirm that Drought is indeed a cocksucker.

    He buys this Penitent's rope out of my bazaar for 200k. I ask him if I can buy it back because at that time Penitent's rope was like 350k (he bought it to sell it again, as I had listed the price wrongly. Keep in mind he's my LS mate at this time, back before I /toss'd Exodus.)

    So knowing that it was my fault anyway for putting it so low technically he could get away with it "sorry dude, was in your bazaar fair and square." But no, he said he would indeed give it back if I sent him the 200k via delivery box. (I again, figure he's my LS mate and isn't gonna fuck me (wrong.)) He then refused to return the item, he said he had it on the AH and the gil I sent to him was his.

    Awesome person, really.

    Now see this goes beyond Douche into total cocksucker now. At least he seems to be keeping up with his reputation.~

    You left out the part where you were supposedly "hacked" and in Rolanberry Fields with you away flag on. We were actually making fun of you. I wouldn't call that putting it at a low price lul. Also glad to hear you tossed the pearl. You were supposed to get it broken but you went M.I.A.

    I'm a member of Exodus, and was going to stay out of this until this douchebag posted. Redness is the same guy who posted about soloing Tiamat, upgrading Mandau, and extensive threads on rdm meleeing.. Awesome person, really.

    Actually Red, you had someone tell the LS you were "hacked" and they were bazaaring your shit in Rollenberry, and you just so happened to get it back like 2 hours later. And I had people in LS tell me not to give you back the rope because you were getting booted for that lie anyway, I mean I really was going to, but then I just said fuck it.

    But anyway, anyone can think whatever of me, if i'm an asshole because I had more dkp than others and wanted to trade the dkp for a item I wanted, then ok. And the ONLY reason I posted the P.S. is because he cried about it in shout till we killed it, then ran here like a little bitch and cried some more, otherwise I would of just left it alone.

    I know this wont end this thread but this is my last post here, I dont troll this stuff like some people just waiting to say something ignorant that I disagreee with. I didn't even know people were still saying shit in here till a few on LS told me.

    So ya, i'm an asshole, i'm a Droughtbag, I'm what the fuck ever you want to call me, but I just don't care, because the only people I do care what they think of me are the ones in Exo, and a few out of Exo. And they all know i'm not the asshole this rdm who posted this is trying to make me out to be.

    So i'm done.

    If you kept the 200k, you're a flaming dickwad, regardless of the lie that Redness supposedly told. Why do you think the OP was shouting at you? You steal an NM, that shit happens.

    Also Robian, the stuff Redness posted about soloing Tiamat, upgrading Mandau etc, doesn't make him a bad person like you imply. <_< It just makes him a bit loopy, but anyone who knows Redness knows he's just like that.

    Excuse me, you must be a fucking idiot. No one thinks you're an asshole for spending your DKP on the cape. Everyone thinks you're an asshole because you took the cape and didn't give it to the person that deserved it, I.E. the person that worked for it. It's called being a decent person, being courteous.

    Jump off your high horse for a moment and hop into the OPs shoes. Don't give him shit about QQing when you're the type of person that would have a tantrum if someone outlotted you on an item you wanted.

    You may not be an asshole all the time, but in this case you were. If you aren't really the twat you come off as, you certainly did a shitty job proving otherwise.
