Certain addons don't grey out a player who's not in instance/range unless you select the option---at least that's been my experience with Shadow UF and Xperl. onetwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714492925381422700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524333278511288129.post-51713961416383076732014-11-26T15:47:16.921-06:002014-11-26T15:47:16.921-06:00I've not come across this recently - but i'...I've not come across this recently - but i'm certain in MoP and Cata before - anyone not in the instance has their raid 'bar' greyed out and all the groups i have been ruthless at kicking people - hell if you aren't pulling your dps weight on Recount and you're in the instance for a wipe chances are you won't be staying. The Kick facility is there - make sure you exercise your demorcratic rights.Bonesaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18366981026222221262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524333278511288129.post-79367410094035327982014-11-26T09:30:09.995-06:002014-11-26T09:30:09.995-06:00Bam! That's a really great way to look at it. ...Bam! That's a really great way to look at it. "Would YOU want to be next to 24 other YOUS?"<br /><br />Players that exploit the systems in the way above just disappoint me, though other than submitting a written ticket to Blizzard, or perhaps reporting them for "cheating," it's hard to see what else can be done.<br /><br />Other than write a blog post. :D Thanks for your comment. onetwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714492925381422700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524333278511288129.post-20947902867980797472014-11-26T09:24:50.835-06:002014-11-26T09:24:50.835-06:00I agree, don't be that player.
I live by, and...I agree, don't be that player.<br /><br />I live by, and try to teach, every person that I play with in my guild to play by one simple rule in random group content which is as follows.<br /><br />"If everyone in the group performed at the same level you did, would you down the boss?"<br /><br />If the answer is yes, then you are fine, if the answer is no, you have no business being in a random group.<br /><br />In the case you mentioned where that person zoned out, it would be if everyone zoned out would you down the boss. The answer is no. In that case that person has absolutely no business being in a random group setting. They are a blight to the community and should be removed from it. I would not be opposed to blizzard handing out 3 day bans, or longer, for LFR leeches. You do not need to be the best player, I know I am far from it, but as long as you put in enough effort so that if everyone were performing at your level you could down the boss, than you did a good job.<br /><br />Don't be that player. Be better.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.com
