A Rant about Harlequinne
After parting with this person several times over the course of a couple weeks, I've decided I don't like he/she/it/goat. I'm willing to let the whole RDM/SMN thing go as any subjob has it's uses under the right circumstances. But RDM/SMN is a bit no-no in the mire. (it usually got another mage to do the main healing thing, I was BRD,  and it made the party.)

Anyway; biggest pet peeve about this person is it's way of delegating replacement members. In the most recent party WAR#1 gave 20-30m notice, it's response? My friend wants to join, ask her.  WTH?!  First of all, IT is leader, and it's IT's FRIEND. I don't get it.

Guess I should explain my perceptions a bit. Leader makes party, it's party leader's responsibility to replace members(or decide when to disband) NOT the party member itself.  The one time I had to leave it's party, (Well, it started out with Hatage inviting me, I said I didn't have very long but got invited anyway). Harle sends me tells about who to rep myself with, jobs etc. Person gave up leader then still decides to BE leader. Even though it started said party, it gave up lead to go use the bathroom. Anyway, I wasn't happy about that.

Most recent party was a merit party. i'm the only BRD. I'm 72. WHM and WAR are 74. It comes DRK and a 75WAR to finish. Didn't have good prospects to begin with (Meripo is incredibly hard on WHM, gear/merits/etc help make it better). WHM is Elvaan with less than 700 MP. I check him. And gag. AF, Blessed Briault, no grip, no back, Friar's Rope, onyx earring, signal pearl, emp band, Saintly Ring, and a morion tathlum. Apparently Ginta doesn't take WHM all that seriously.

Oh, oh. Harl just dc'd out of it's own party. Perfect ending.

Somewhere along the way, Carbuncle developed the popular mind set that YOU are responsible for replacements. I don't agree with this. And I wont do it.

It's also why I solo or static.

Honestly I didn't even get what you just typed, lol. You substituted the person with 'it', which in return gives confusion on what you're trying to imply.

I am cold heartily against what you were trying to explain though. It ISN'T the leader's whole-some responsibility to look for replacements for someone who was invited by that leader, it's called common courtesy, obviously you don't have any.

Mind you the whitemage didn't have great gear, big deal, not everyone on the game makes as much gil as you or any of the RMTs on the server. You really need to stop being selfish on your own out-looks and actually enjoy the game without picking apart people in it.

By the way, if you're talking about Odin server, it's Harlequine, not with two n's. lol. No this isn't her, and yes I've seen her around.
