    Default More booting before boss...

    Because I'll make this whenever some random high level boots everyone for loot when they helped clear the whole dungeon.
    Also because I just won't spare anymore pity for those who boot like that.


    And the worse part, this kid even admits to booting everyone
    This is the way it was ALWAYS meant to be.

    Is there even anything to gain by booting right before the boss? The drop rate is what it is for each individual person.

    Was this in Humania? Too bad we can't administer soap beatings in game to get players to fall in line. Perhaps we need an emote for that.

    just an fyi, they cant "boot for loot" because everyone has their own chance at loot, having you in the game doesnt affect his chances, which just proves your point, booting nefore bosses is pointless... and mean

    It is not bannable, but it is clearly soap beatable.

    Well, it is considered ruining a player's experience and that is considered horrible if you look at ToS.

    Not directly bannable, but after several warnings, probably a possible Temp Ban.

    And yeah, the ironic truth is, there actually isn't anything you achieve with booting before boss. It doesn't affect your individual pink drop rate in any way.

    Oh, and this is in SSC.
    This is the way it was ALWAYS meant to be.

    At least the boot reason wasn't "my loot!" or "I think you might get pink so bye" at boss... I've seen them all (mainly in ssc, fang & swamps)

    I always reported screen shot or text report but idk what ever happens... Oh well, on to the next one

    Default More booting before boss...

    Ok so this reminds me the other day when I was lvling my toon ( lvl 7 at the time) I joined a skeleton cult crypt that was hosted by a lvl 70.
    So I get in and there is a 68, 70 and two other lower lvls like me.
    So the 68 and 70 start pulling all the bosses to the main room and tell us all to come back for the xp/drops, as soon as we do they stop attacking and let us take the damage and start calling us noobs, losers.
    So I ignore them and kite and start attacking the bosses np.
    So then I get booted with the reason " die you noob".

    *sigh* I told em they would see about it in the forums and the 68 said sry and said that it was his friends idea that they would stop.
    ------------------------------------------------
    hmmm what the hell should I put here?

    I has this happen a few rimes in new maps nothing is more aggrivating and indeed makes peeps mad. I can understand at the beginning of a game somone is per lvl farming etc. but why are peeps are booting at boss is a question that remains.

    The excuse i was given one day was "wrong way" while we where at boss... Ummmm seriousley

    I'm pretty sure Whirlz knows how to report. Using the screenies with names MAY be a no-no but this is one of those cases where I personally don't care (as the same will be with most vets.)

    I am an advocate for this to be a bannable offense, especially when they beg for it. Also, in a case like this where the individual makes it clear that he/she does it all the time, this post helps to educate the community for names to watch out for.

    And +1 for a Full Metal Jacket style soap beating Fluff! Haha

    Also not a fan of calling out names, because you could tarnish their reputation with out any evidence. This is different, because the name happens to show up in a screen shot, and if someone does not realize that everything they say and do can be screen shot then they really should not be using technology

    Just noticed in the second pic that dude who was selling the 500 pots. He was everywhere last night, I couldn't seem to get away from him. LOL

    I guess there might be two reasons for booting at boss:

    1) a party had a rough time clearing the mobs and finally gets to the boss and some new player just jumps in wanting to farm the boss. They might feel that they did all the work and it's poaching to just jump in at the last minute;

    2) they want to keep rare items rare so they can maximize their selling price so boot before someone has chance at the drop.

    Not saying that these are good reasons, just possible reasons why they do that.
