I have a 60 Sorcerer and 52 Lancer and in over 200 instance runs and being on Celestial hills I have never seen anyone roleplay sitting out during a boss.


I apologize for having to copy paste two different windows. I can't help the window wasn't large enough to accommodate the response in the same pane. If you need time stamps I can provide it if you don't believe me here.

This is just silly. I usually don't even really pay attention to which server people are from, but haven't had much problem with anyone going off the rails in a dungeon. No server has a monopoly on idiots. (although it is freaking annoying to heal idiots who come in with outlaw status on pvp servers, to the point that I sometimes kick them on sight if they are also undergeared)

Yeah, I believe you but this is not a rampant problem and does not justify blocking Celestial hills from the dungeon finder.

I was grouped with a Chef that was playing from his restaurant he afk'd at least 15 times during the run. It was annoying, but I don't think EME should ban Chefs from playing, ban people playing from their business or remove his server from the dungeon finder.

Please stop ignoring my other suggestion(s). My main concern with RP joining non-RP is just that. Specified in B. En Masse presented a very black and white scenario:

"If roleplaying is not your style then don’t play on a RP server."

I chose not to roleplay, and so fulfilled my obligation by choosing a non RP server. Unfortunately, the reverse is not adhered to, which is fine, however, we need other group options if we are going to be contradicting ourselves by allowing RP to mess with non-RP.

What are you talking about? RP isn't allowed to mess with non-RP. The rules are there just for the RP server, no where else are they enforced, so if someone is interfering with your run by using RP as an excuse, then kick them or ignore them so you never group with that person again.

I'm beginning to think you're just complaining to complain about now. They aren't going to seclude a entire server from LFD tool just because you had a few bad experiences.

Your not required to roleplay when grouped with those from the Celestial Hills server in the dungeon finder.

This is a non-issue. The problem is in between your monitor and your chair.

Last time I'll say this: stop ignoring my other suggestion(s). All you are doing is focusing on ONE thing I suggested: exclusion.

Heck, even the TITLE of my post suggests multiple options.

When you attack an entire server, labeling them as you have, of course your suggestions will be ignored. Now, if you had instead, just put the suggestion forth of a better way to manage a group for LFD with more control over vote to kick etc? You'd not be getting the flack you are now.

And I don't see all these options due to the horrid layout of your post.

I see addressing issues, which should imply solutions to problems. But instead I see complaining about moral, with questions and opinions, no suggestions. So I see the next portion of how to address the situation, and well look at that... No Suggestions, but self entitlement and leaving the group high and dry.

All your "issues" could be readily resolved just by talking with your team members in your group. And if they don't agree with it and won't initiate a vote kick, majority rules.

So, if you would please, maybe edit it, take out the insulting of others. Then address simply the issues you've encountered, then propose what you think would be a good solution, instead of that bantering rabble.

I'm not going to respond to you if you're not going to read my post past your obvious bias. Even your first sentence is already invalidated by MY first sentence in my OP.

For the last time, I am going to say this: yes, I am complaining about RP players not containing their mannerisms in non-RP settings. This is the largest chunk of my post, and it is a completely valid complaint. There is no "vote kick" option. This is something that needs to be put back in place, as I do recall it being there in beta.

And actually, if you look at the layout, it is rather evenly distributed: 2 paragraphs to introduce my complaint, 2 examples of why I'm complaining, and 2 paragraphs of why I don't think it's working now and how we can fix it.

Since you like to focus on only one thing, and it seems it is the following: *****Why allowing RP to join cross-server doesn’t work for Tera:*****

Would you actually read more than 2% deep into what I've said if I corrected it to say *****Why allowing RP to join cross-server doesn’t work for Tera but how we can fix it:*****

? It seems like 6 words in an entire post shouldn't be holding much weight...unless said readers of the 6 words were focused only on one part of the original message.

Oh, and for the record, in both examples, I have clearly defined the issue as when they are the party leader.

If they were proper Roleplayers, they'd know the using LFD is non RP. Not our fault people are idiots on CH, but the same could be said about all server.

I had a High Elf Priest join from VoT, we were doing the rather simple instance of Sigil Adstringo, and the idiot kept standing behind the tank saying the only way he could heal was being within 5m range, needless to say he kept dying due to Cone Fire breath and the air attacks in a line.

Similarly we had a warrior join a group from VoT, who refused to leave tanking stance and kept pulling aggro getting themselves killed.

Also had a Archer from JC who just used basic attack, never used poison or charged skills.

The list could go on and on and on.

Don't blame the server, blame the people and kick them if they're being stupid.


I have a question, what the [filtered] is tanking stance?
