I swear to god i speak for everyone when i say, "screw the snobs. screw em good."
Was fighting jelly king with two friend and somebody. The person has great gear, and i mean great gear(not 5 star but you get my drift). Anyway, he IGNORES us! plus, i believed he spoke english and decided to screw us over. I swear to god, if you find a snob, he/she will just screw you in the future. youre probably saying, "this is just some player who thinks he can talk trash about anyone." OH NO! thats not it.......take a look at some details of that person being a snob:
1-he knew english YET he speak tw the entire time
2-during jelly king fight, he leaves during the middle of it (who does that?)

I know there are reaosns they could be that but i know this person WAS a snob:
1-my friend knows tw (cool huh?) and he said, "hello" in tw. the person just stares and says, "???"
2- he died 2 times during the entire set of floors we went through (so thats 15 energy which isnt a lot). You could still revive yourslef during the fight and he had enough btw. then he leaves us there to die.

Out of all that, we lost tons of energy, time, and now i pretty much have to wait a day or two to have some fun in the game cuz of the attitude of that person. Look im not saying believe me, im just asking you to read the name of the topic: Screw the snobs. Why do they get to think we have to work our buts off becuase they have rich parents (or their rich) and they get to see us squirm. Answer me that. J_A_S out.
(tw is taiwaneese btw[think thats name of language]).

Um...ever heard of

Um...ever heard of disconnections and computer crashes? I've had all of those playing this game and it happens suddenly and without advance warning. That could've happened.

Also how do you know he had more energy? Yes someone with great gear is expected to have more energy but its not impossible that he doesn't. His next revive would've been 20. At that point, it isn't worth as much to bother with it.

I've faced the jelly king 5 times, 3 times victory (more so by the people I was working with instead of myself), but on those losses, you could tell when it was a lost cause, so you just quit, and this was before the recent update which may have weakened the jelly king. Really sometimes it's not worth it to fight him if you can't win easily, just going down there to the levels before that are worth it. No need to waste time on him.

Just think about how much money you waste if you go and you know you can't win. Let's say you handled yourself perfectly on the way down here. 0 deaths. So you'd have a perfect 5 revive if you need it.

Well to enter JK, you pay 10 energy. First revive 5 (15). Second revive 10 (25 total. Next 20 (45 total). That's roughly 1700 crowns in energy. Do you really need to go through that for a maybe win? Don't even go down there and instead start another run through all the levels before that.

You're right, people don't

You're right, people don't try to have fun in this game so screw over as many other players as you want. They're not real people.

That said, the OP is probably getting worked up over nothing.

NO...thats not it

okay. I get everything everyone is saying, but did anyone read reason one?
and i quote, "1-he knew english YET he speak tw the entire time." he knew english but he spoke a lagnuage that normally people cant understand (unless you know it).
1-my friend knows tw (cool huh?) and he said, "hello" in tw. the person just stares and says, "???"
Um....did anyone read this or do you like to jump to conclusions? hello is one of the several words you should still know in your language. And this did happened and that was the OTHER reason the person was a snob (second reason i get, ok? you dont need to focus on that).
Look, im just saying that if someone said hello to you (and you are the only two people in a room), wouldnt you say hello? if you dont, why? during your posts, i wanna see if would say hello or not.

I don't speak to people

I don't speak to people beyond a greeting and sorting out debuff order, when random grouping.

Then again, random grouping is not something I ever do.

Really...

...I'm not sure you're really in a position to call anyone out on jumping to conclusions. I would absolutely say hello if someone said so to me.

But consider: how exactly do you know how well he knew English? How do you know that he spoke Taiwanese? (You know there are several hundred spoken languages and dialects that share a written language with Taiwanese Hokkein, but are not mutually intelligible, right?) Assuming he spoke both Taiwanese and English, how do you know he was confident enough in his English to not accidentally say something stupid or embarrassing? Maybe his OS romanizes written Taiwanese but doesn't allow for direct writing with a standard Latin characterset? How do you know that he was even paying attention to the chat window? Maybe it was scrolled away by loot or hidden before he checked? Maybe he just doesn't like to sit and type while he's playing a game?

Frankly, this player is not the one who sounds like the snob in this situation.

Welcome to the Internet,

Welcome to the Internet, where these kinds of people are plenty. If you join pub games, you are supposed to meet these kinds of people once in a while. I recommend getting a guild.
