Post yours, besides topics like this of course :) Don't know where else to post this so I apologize if this isn't appropriate.

Few things lately have been driving me nuts and I just need to vent a little.

1. People not knowing that the floors can change and you can see which floor is next on the elevator so when ask if everyone wants to wait for an arena they have no idea what I'm talking about, I mean come on I figured that out like first day. I can understand if it's some non English speakers who have no idea what I'm asking but most of the time people respond with "what do you mean?" followed by me having to explain it which I don't mind but then people question me afterwards "are you sure?" it's like naw I'm making it up so we can just wait here for nothing.

2. Can't stand people who complain about others not doing something their way and when they stop to type their complaints they get killed, yes I'm talking about the people who do this on royal jelly it just annoys the hell out of me, if you want to give some pointers give them before the fight.

3. People who wait till everyone is on the lift before leaving so we can't get their stuff or people who just get on the lift and leave without dropping their stuff period.

4. This one happened today and it's not really anyone's fault but I joined a gate and found myself in the middle of a danger room all alone cause the leader must of quit, free danger room but still....

5. People who complain about

5. People who complain about the market preventing people from playing then walk five feet and craft a *5 piece of equipment.

6. People who slash monsters I have just frozen.

7. People who don't buy hugs from me. Seriously, people, they're only 10 cr each.

More likely, the party was open, you joined and he kicked you while you were loading. That is pretty sweet though, now I want a free danger room. D:

8. When someone wants you to help them with jelly king, and you fully explain to them, invite me at the START of the next floor. 7 mins later you receive an invite and the idiot is standing there in front of the elevator waiting to go down. Thanks for wasting my energy a-hole. I leave the party. It boggles my mind that you can explain something to someone, and they'll agree, then immediately do the exact opposite (not as a troll, but out of stupidity). It's not like i'm trying to teach my dog algebra.

9. You enter a danger room,

9. You enter a danger room, arena, or any other tough fight and everyone fights the same as they did in the rest of the level. This mostly consists of making a mad dash for the mobs and attacking without pause, never using shield (not even to shield-cancel), no maneuvering to attack the sides or backs of mobs. Strategy? Why bother with that when you can run up to a mob and just mash attack.
Seriously, what's the rush people? How about timing your attacks to fill in each others weaknesses (like that long delay after the last swing of a sword). Or at least timing them so you're not getting hit every three attacks as if it's some sort of inevitability.

10. When people see you frozen and they just run past you...sword waving uselessly in their stupid stupid hands. Gunners and bombers get a pass here.

11. People who see gun puppies and run out there activating fifteen of them at once.

12. People who run past danger rooms.

13. People who die while still holding healing capsules. The only time this is acceptable is if you were poisoned or swarmed/stun-locked to death.

14. joining a pug to find them on floor 12 or 22. There really needs to be a way to indicate up to what depth you'd like to join. Especially with this Basil recipe fix in the last big patch.

Hahahaha.

15. Mostly I just hate on the forum-people who complain about how they hate the game so much and want to quit, then proceed to post for the NEXT WEEK about wanting to quit and how much they hate the game.

Really? If you're that dissatisfied just stop playing and stop posting about wanting to stop playing. Clearly you don't want to quit that much. I like the game, so I still play. Don't subject me to your haterants.

/end haterant about haterants.

Heh. why not

18. Players kicking people after the jelly king/vanaduke has been defeated, but before the gems were picked up.

People assuming that what they say is true, without actually knowing would be annoying, but I find the forums to be a source of amusement and silliness from my perspective. People whine, gripe, and complain, all the while the game keeps going on (Oh, I've done so too, but it's all part of the forum experience!) These forums are rather dead, though, compared to the game. Nice change from previous ones I frequented, where one couldn't even keep up with the posts when spending 4-6 hours a day there. Yeah, I had to give that up fast as the classes demanded a bit more time from me...

Oh!
19. People sending friend/guild requests via drive-by. If I haven't played with you, and I don't know you, why would I want to friend you? And I have no interest in guilds, let alone ones where recruitment is as easy as the leader happened to walk by...
