I think this is the right place so...

Yesterday I was invited to vana. When I arrived another member of the group started saying that I would be only a bother in the mission because I was just rank 7-2-ish. This member constatly said that I was too slow, that I was making everyone else slower too and many other annoying things. The person that invited me decided at a point that we should go to the right (all knights that have gone to vana will know what place I'm talking about, I think)
The one who invited had a plan of pushing all the buttons (which is a bad idea) and died. his friend that constantly annoyed me calling me worthless also died and started calling the leader of the party an imbecile and started blamming ME for his death. Since the two died they started asking me for sparks and started getting annoyed because I was "too slow" and they wanted to reach the next level quickly. I was about to beat the trojan horse when my pc lagged because another knight came to the aid. By the next level the knight that came to aid left and these two started talking trash about it and about other members that didn't help them. Then the annoying knight died and the two of them started annoying me again and complaining that I was too slow. I just had enough of them and told them a piece of my mind, blocked 'em and left.

Then I was playing with my bf's younger brother and we were doing roarmulus in an open party (the more the merrier they say) and this knight came and was fooling around and bothering us all along. at first he asked us to be his friend and we were all like "sure that's cool" but afterwards he started asking us to revive him all the time and by the time we reached roarmulus no one had sparks (except my bf's brother but he revived others 5 times and that's just a lot of times) so this knight was all like "you guys are my friends! you MUST revive me!!!!!!!!1!!" but no one had any more sparks to give and he started insulting us there on the floor and then said "you know what!!? I don't care!! Don't revive me, I'll get tokens anyway while I just lie here and you guys do all the fighting!!" and then, we beat the roarmulus and he was all like "WHAAAAAAAA!!!??? NOTHING! I RECEIVED NOTHING! SUCH FRIENDS YOU GUYS ARE!!!" and we just ignored him and went back to haven 75 (spanish haven). And this knight went out of his way to search for us at haven 75 and started insulting us all the way, and said that he would report us and that if OOO didn't ban us he would hack our accounts. I just had enough of him (like, 8 minutes of his foolish acting) and I was all like "you kno what? Hack my BUTT!" and we just left to arcada -_- I mean, he MAY be a kid but he knows insults of adults quite well :/

And today, I was in arcada and this dude arrived and didn't even say hello he just went all like "I wanna do the cold iron carver" And I was like "cool" because it was my sword but then he was "even if it's a really bad sword" ad I was like "OK." and he was talking about how cool he was with all his weapons and about how he was making all the weapons in the game and kept talking about how PRO he was with his crimsom hammer weapons and stuff. We reached roarmulus and another knight came along. Then another knight came and the PRO knight said "LOL I was trying to kick the noob out of the group and then I remembered I was not the leader!" while my friend's knight loaded he was making fun of my friend calling him a noob and stuff because he had the aegis (which I actually like, and besides that, he may have an aegis, but he would have died less times than you, PRo. I died less times than him and I was only using 4* basics). Then my friend said he was leaving (in spanish) and the rude knight was all like " a noob and doesn't talk inglish either" as if talking in spanish was a sin (when I talk both spanish and english so of course I have friends from both languages).
This PRO knight became really annoying and prepotent and expected us to do thing for him and was all like "Are you gonna open the door for me or WHAT?" and I was all like "I ain't yo slave" so I wasn't doing anything for him. Thing is I have met an awful lot of rude knights which I end up blocking and It's just sad they are like that in a game like this.

Come and rant here too if you wish n.nU

...They joined me in most cases. and when I'm invited it's because they need help. so the "If you want to join me" wouldn't be the case here. I tend to go alone because of rude people that join me ( even "friends")

Have been playing this game for a long time, I have met tons of rude ppl in the game, but I don't particularly remember them because I don't have space in my brain for that. There's a reason why I am very quick to leave parties or kick someone, in fact, today I went solo on the middle of a run just because the guy in the party got scared when our 3rd party member left the group and wanted me to "invite more plz" in my brain that sounded more like "OMG i'm weak I need moar meetshields so my incompetence isn't too noticeable", that combined with the way that he died on the very first level we did was all I needed to leave faster than a teenager can leave school after classes are over.

Actually, I do remember one time that I got pissed real bad (probably the reason why I remember it) when a guy started being all racist and discriminating towards mexicans and pretty much everyone who wasn't american.

BTW I find your name very funny because it sounds like someone who farms for radiants day and night... I mean "Arena-Queen"? ahahahahh GIVE ME YOUR RADS O_O

Honeydieu

Well, ....

Your experiences are quite common, unfortunately, but as you play longer you will have more experience in dealing with such trolls. Until I reached Vanguard and "achieved" the 45,000 badge, I would get this crap on occasions, too. It was particularly bad when I was with only four star gear on Vana runs; the trash talk was unnecessary since it is just a game, but some players invest too much emotion into getting Almrean tokens and all the loot in between to actually enjoy playing the game. So, just leave. Simple solution. As soon as you sense that you are playing with a troll, get out. An immediate clue that you are in bad company is if one won't even give any salutation before the mission begins. That itself doesn't mean that the player is a troll, maybe he/she just likes to be quiet and get the mission over with in silence. No problem. But if the trash talking starts, don't respond, just leave. That is the only way to deal with trolls.

As for beggars, I learned that when you give (to those whom you don't know), you just invite that behavior to continue. Just say, "Sorry, can't do." If it continues, just ignore. One shouldn't go on missions and expect to be revived by other party members; asking to be revived is presumptuous and selfish.
(Obviously, if one is a friend, fine, but otherwise, just ignore the request.)

Be patient, and as you get the Vanguard and that 45,000 badge, the trash talking will stop. BUT, what I learned by getting "bullied" was that I will always try to be helpful and sympathetic to those who who may not have the same strength of gear that I have; I am not going to be bad because I was treated poorly. This is an opportunity to learn something positive through a negative experience. Embrace it.

The-Arena-Queen

you are totes right

Honeydieu, you are very right in that. I always try to help those starting after me me and always defend them against bullies. It's just a game as you said. They need to chill about their 5* weaponry. We all started somewhere so...

I've dealt with so many

I've dealt with so many terrible people since I played this game. It's hard to find decent people, especially in random parties. It's started to reach that point where I only party with peeps I've been playing a long time with.

Anyway, if you're still low rank, feel free to call me up. My IGN is 'Keepscaite', and I'm online pretty often. I can help you with missions and grinding in general, but I won't stand for begging lol.

this guy

So last night was at fsc on the part with the two gates. He kept taking the statue and putting in the right side and we have kept arguing for a good 5 minutes. While we were still arguing I took rhe statue, made sure someone was standing on the left button, took the statue inside, made sure the guy was in no gate, and finally kick we d him. Was it a bad thing I did or did he deserve it. He was pretty rude

My solution to beggars (when I stay in haven long enough to notice them I'm probably in a bid war so I've got time)
I wait for a few minutes then say "in the time you took begging you could have gotten your own crowns", I've never seen a beggar come up with a counter argument for that

Avenger-Of-Troy

Alright, maybe back when I was still learning vana...

Actually I can't remember. It might have been yesterday. But the date doesn't matter.

So me and my friend join a party. The two people (that I later find out are friends) there are like, "hey" and stuff.

We get a later, and one of the two other knights keep insulting me, and his friend, but complementing my friend. They start heating, and so I'm the

party leader. By the time we get to vanaduke, he's saying stuff so often... I decide to mute him, and kick him. His friend was saying, "HEY! YOU'VE

RECKED OUR PARTY. I HATE YOU." I can't remember the details, but it was one of the following happened next:

I either kicked him,

or let him stay and ignored his rants.

Dreamless-Reaper

This is one of the reasons

This is one of the reasons why I solo most of SK and don't join guilds,no issues,no heavy heights to carry and no players who start to cry because someone typed something which offended them.

But for the last case there are times in which a pro gets killed more times than the so called 'noob' because hes doing most of the while the less experienced ones have less work to do due to the so called 'pro'.

Also for someone whose experienced maybe its true that you are quite show compared to them but instead of complaining he should have helped you.
Many times when I rarely leave the party open i see the player who has more experience get mad at the less experienced player which is fine but when you start to attack the player which tries to play then that's bad especially when you start writing a love poem full of hate and rage and you end up slowing my freaking speed run by 5 minutes I will kick both of the players or go solo
(when I'm really mad I usually use the enemies or firepots to kill players A_A)

Excalibored

Some people are really rude.

And there's really no way to stop that, unless you want to drop a nuke on the whole entire world. Everybody is rude from time to time.

Anyways, I've never really encountered anyone that is as rude as the people in the posts above while doing missions or doing Arcade. I only ever go on runs with guildies, unless I'm really trying to find someone to play with. For all of my alts/accounts I've joined small guilds, exception are Exceeds and B.R.M.C, but both have nice people, and i don't go on those knights that much anymore.

I haven't run into many bad knights honestly

Usually I just ignore the knights that reek of immaturity, as those are usually the ones that act big but are small (You'll see that a lot from people ages 8-12. I've been that 12-year-old that's proud to be twelve, and I've seen other youngins do the same). As long as you pull your own weight and don't let people get to you, you'll do fine. Arguing with people doesn't usually help when they're insulting you, performing better than them does. Speaking of which...

Story time!

I remember a long while ago a certain knight pretty much sent me a bunch of tell messages going on about how they were so good because they don't use shields and stuff, and how they don't have sparks of life because they're "so good". Eventually I say something along the lines of "Hey, why don't we run the prestige mission and you show me?" to which they reply "OKAY". As a challenge for myself, I say "I'm going to use my original loadout as we go along in this" to which they reply "Me too!". Now we were doing the fiend prestige mission, as I know a good player would have no problem whereas a mediocre one would run into some problems. My original loadout was a leviathan blade, magma driver, full valkyrie, and a grey owlite shield. They had some weird combination of dragon scale and I think volcanic salamander, swiftstrike buckler, and I think a grand flourish + something else relevant. First level is poison fiends, and I think both of us do pretty well. I have poison resist and fiend bonuses and so I am going pretty well against these ones. I think the other knight stayed at about half health most of the way but they weren't doing badly.

Next depth is what I was afraid of: Fire fiends. Not only was I extremely vulnerable (ever been wearing valkyrie against fire on elite before? Get lit and you lose about half of your health if not more without any health boosts. Don't think I found a vitapod until very late too), but my magma driver now lost some of its ability. The only things I had going for me was my shield resisting fire and my armor giving a fiend bonus. Anyways, we go through the level and the other knight goes down. Blames it on lag, whatever. However, even before the final battle, they go down again. They go nuts and start demanding I revive them. I calmly tell them that this is a sort of "competition", and that if they're needing sparks they can go buy them. I end up powering through the rest of the level without going down and at the end they start treating me as some sort of god and saying how they're so horrible. Part of me wanted to say "if you're going to brag at least live up to it", but the other part of me let them keep whining to me. I told them they weren't really bad, just sort of hardheaded.

Since then I've seen them around and usually they're going on about how bad they are at the game, seeking sympathy. It's sort of sad really, but a narcissist sort of needs to realize it isn't all about them sometimes. Sadly I don't even think they learned that part. :\

Thank you everyone!

I really enjoyed reading all the comments, thanks for sharing and if you guys wish, keep sharing!

I get horribly angry when someone in the game becomes racist. Like seriously I get horribly mad.
the guild I am member from it's called maverick hunters and they are really nice and sweet. They invited me when I was a newbie and helped me through most of the hard missions. They also revive others when needed and are very kind so far. Sadly not everyone it's like that in cradle :/

I hope you guys never experience this bad stuff again :/

Traevelliath

I'm the kind of guy who can forgive a lot, so I don't have that many memorable bad teammates. Most of my bad experiences come when I get paired with people that focus on efficiency above all else. As someone who is very far into the late game, I've long stopped doing the most profitable runs or the most efficient strategies. However, understandably, not everyone is like that, and I've gotten into a few arguments over it. This happened quite a lot just after the Gunner Update. I'd keep joining random lobbies, only to find the party leader had sprinted past all the enemies and was waiting impatiently at a party button. The worst part is when they're incredibly stubborn. It's as if anything other than the most optimal strategies are completely unacceptable.

Strangely, some of my least favorite people that I've met on SK aren't the rude ones. See, I like to be friendly on my runs, greeting people when they join and starting up conversations. While not everyone is pleasant, most are decent people looking to just have a good time. It's when people assume I want to be their lifelong friend and guardian who'll lead them through the horrors of the Clockworks out of the goodness of my heart, that things get problematic. I don't want to say no, because they (usually) mean well and are just looking for a friend. I myself befriended a 5* knight, when I was just starting out, and he helped me greatly in my progress. I've also taken a few knights under my wing, and they are now some of my best SK friends. Yet some of them can be INCREDIBLY irritating and stupidly needy. Usually I just covertly "forget" about their friend request and hope they go away, but sometimes they corner me and pester me about why I haven't accepted yet. Then they follow me, bombard me with party invites, and ask for money. I can't bring myself to just cut all ties and tell them to go away, because then I feel like the jerk. I once lost my temper and yelled at one of these guys to leave me alone. A few days later I found out he had given away all his stuff and quit SK.

I quite like to help random people in haven, or join random parties. as you can imagine, this leads to me doing a lot of T2 bosses.
sadly I am a bit of a perfectionist, so I can get a little angry when someone messes up things I am trying to do.
if a knight I play with repeatedly does such things, I can get a little vocal, but I always explain why to do what for what reasons.

that reminds me of the time I ran a RT party with 3 randoms. all semi-noobs, not well equipped either.
as you can imagine, the journey to the boss was... painful. but the real issue came with the boss itself.
I offered to do the switches and told everyone to please not hit them. you can guess what happened.
so the twins kept blasting everyone while I frantically tried to get a rocket through without some dunce flipping the switch and ruining everything.
I managed to get to the second-last phase somehow, while the rest of the party slowly wiped. now and then someone would revive and health-share a few others back up. once everyone stopped reviving, I was at half a pip of health, close to a heart attack due to adrenaline and sweating like a waterfall.
I then swiftly dispatched the twins, deleted all their friend requests and left.

a bit more on topic, I once had a friend ingame. just some random dude or dudette I picked up while playing.
we now and then played a little together, nothing special. after while, they started asking for money. I of course said no, as I didnt want to give my money away for no good reason and needed what little I had for myself. on one occasion, as we were about to start a mission, they asked for money (a decent sum as well) and I again declined. they then called me a bad friend, insulted me and left.
I swiftly deleted them as a friend.

I lend sometimes money tho

I actually lend and give money to guild members and friends, but thats because they only ask for the las 1k crowns they are needing to create a new weapon, but something, etc. It's not like my friends or guild members ask that much, they rarely do.

But those people that start running through haven asking for money? Nope. Ain't got nuthin' for ye.

Subject:

I know this isn't quite what the topic is about, but those low level AI knights you can free and fight along side are garbage. They value of them is less than zero. They cause enemies to attack, move enemies around, free enemies from ice, deal less damage than I do on FSC enemies even when the target is poisoned, and cause Grimalkins to stay out longer. The fact that they constantly get back up after taking a ton of damage and always follow you around makes it even worse. I can handle people but AIs just repeat the patterns they are programmed with!

AI knights are not rude

Off topic, but I don't mind those low-level AI knights. True, they're a mixed blessing in Scared To Death. They cause two grimalkins to spawn instead of just one, but they also can distract a trojan in an arena room while I maneuver around to its back.

They make decent cannon fodder (er, office furniture fodder) in White Collar Captives, so I can stand behind them firing a Blitz.

People gotta be Darude because we're better than them

I had my fair share of angry people. First off, I get insults, not just to be, but my entire guild. Is it too much to click a button to say no to a guild invite than to insult an entire guild? Second, when people don't like your battle strategy that they try their best to kill you. I tried helping this one guy when he specifically asked for help in Vana on the second floor, second room to the right, and after that, he calls me stupid because I was trying to get the trojan, but he gets in front of it for Nick knows why; next, I do the puppy room alone and notice he's just waiting for something. after the gate opens, he comes in, throws a vial at the puppy and it targets me," vial for stupid."
There are still many cases, and I think the system should be a little more strict.

SUDDENLY, HIJACK BY THE UNDEAD DINOSAUR DRAMA KING! Or not.

You know, this makes me feel glad to have strayed away from Spiral Knights in favor of Doctor Who and Pokémon. Seeing this game go downhill with all these rude knights (and trust me, I was one of them; the ancient knight confesses) makes me want to stay away from Spiral Knights and instead decide to go on archive binges of the revival series of Doctor Who and try to beat my friends at Pokémon battling.

As for my own encounters, most of them have faded into amnesia for me since it's been so long. Most of them were beggars and they quickly ended up on my ignore list. As for actual rude knights, not much I can remember. So I've really got nothing. Sorry. I log on from time and time, but I think I might actually leave this game to gather dust if the community's behavior and the quality of the game don't improve. But I don't foresee an improvement, and with SEGA dying, this might actually be the final nail in the coffin for me.

EDIT: Now that I remember it, I met a lot of rude knights in Lockdown, and please leave it at that.

I'm vohtarak, call me by that name

Shroud of the apocrea had me join a lot of idiots and rude people, let's look at some highlights
Person stands on the elevator (leech)
Me "can you help us get tokens?"
Them"(large string of swears and harassment that definitely would get me banned if said on these forums)"

I don't remember this one exactly but it sort of went like this:
Person," we are doing the entire arena level I NEED a vitapod"(everyone else was fine without one)
Person dies multiple times, about 3, when no one else even lost an ER
Begs for sparks while calling us noobs, begins into a temper tantrum when someone explains that dying more than everyone else suggests that he's more of a noob than us
Person continues the insults until he either rage quit or got kicked

This one was more recent, a bit odd that they didn't know anything about the event that's been on for 6 days at the time:
Person" OK guys let's (he proceeds to explain strategies that are completely useless and failures if you use common sense)"
Someone goes to explain how they don't work
Cue the insults, harassment, and slurs, he wasnt kicked for some reason though

Don't spark ungrateful people

I don't really revive strangers, especially people who ask (aka beg, plead, etc.) and people who die continuously. If you didn't play badly you wouldn't need to get a spark. The game mechanics aren't to not care about death because there's always somebody to spark your ass if you need one. If someone begs i tell them this nicely, but brief and bluntly. My sparks my rules. It is your fault you need a spark, not mine.

And ofc, 99% of the strangers on this game that you will meet wont give a damn if you spark them. From what i have seen, many of them just say "ty" or nothing and just carry on like nothing happened.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

I find these rants funny because I have never actually met these people. The response is obvious, though: Unfriend, Kick, and/or Ignore. (UKI, pronounced You-Key)

That being said, I will spare 1 spark if I am able.

Ah, yes, the rude people.

Ah, yes, the rude people. Unfortunately, rude people exist, and even people who aren't normally rude have bad days.

And as Shades mentioned, Lockdown had the most rude people. I admit, I was actually among them with my bomb-hipster-superiority-complex-kinda-thing. (Sorry about that.)

It's not just in Sp'Knights, of course. I've had a recent case where someone threw a temper tantrum at me because my newly trained Mega-Gardevoir ended up sweeping half their team. And then there's the guy in DDO who, upon having their level 9-ish toon killed in one shot by my level 8 bard in the Tavern Brawling area, proceeded to spam me with challenges to battle from a level 14-ish Sorcerer. And don't even get me started on my extensive disapproval of Minecraft griefers.

((@Midnight: To answer your question, Jesus rising again doesn't nullify the effect his death has on, well, stuff. And saying "gets all angry while I'm ridiculing their religion" makes you sound rather rude yourself, so don't do that.))

Rude knights -_- (a BIG rant) (and post your rants here too :c)
