OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
[Raid Leader][Kikanu]: I'm shifting party lead over, I gotta do some college stuff real fast, and I can't ML while doing it.
>pass lead to ninja friend
[Kikanu] whispers; Do what you feel like on this one.
We get into the fight, I die to a lava wall (karma, mayhaps?), and they down Sarth before first drake lands. A couple people leave, probably ones who already had the drake. As I set my computer down, ready to finish my college application, my friend says in Raid Chat;
[Raid Leader][<name>]: I just ate a Deviate Fish, and became a ninja. So, I'm going to ninja the mount. If I see any OK's or "go ahead"'s in chat, I will do it. If 24 "no"'s, then I will distribute properly.
23 of the people say NO, no, F*** off, etc. I'm the last one to say something, since I was writing elsewhere. Lots of people say to me "say no already!", among other things, and I say;
[Raid][Kikanu]: Y'know, he was honest about ninjaing, and gave early warning. Just to spite you guys, I'll say
[Raid Warning][Kikanu]; YES.
The group leader lol's at it, and says "well, that's 23 no's and 1 yes. It's unanimous; I'm ninjaing the mount!"
<name> recieves loot [Reins of the Twilight Drake]
About 9 people leave, and he says'
[raid warning][<name>]: WAIT
[raid warning][<name>]: Roll on the mount, I just wanted to weed out the kids
[raid warning][<name>]: I won't actually learn the mount unless my roll wins
People roll, I get a 15, he gets a 49, and someone else rolls 88 or 89, I forget exactly. He gives them the mount. He then says "Go ahead and let em know I ninja'd the mount. I don't mind the bad name. I was getting a name change anyway."
He took the mount, scared off impatient kids, then gave it out to the one who rolled properly and victoriously. I was laughing hard on vent. Has anyone ever had a ninja like this?

Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
I don't understand why you're bragging about ninja'ing... Cause regardless of whether he opened up to rolls after the 9 "kids" left, he still took their chance at winning the drake from them. They had no way of knowing he was "joking". Not cool.

Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
This. Just fucking this. It'd have been different if you had gone; Look guys before we down the drake, to prevent anyone from bitching or crying about the mount etc, I'll take it. THEN I will have you all roll, whomever rolls highest will get it. Because I don't want anyone attacking anyone else for getting the mount, alright?Sarayana wrote:I don't understand why you're bragging about ninja'ing...

But no. You and your buddy DENIED PEOPLE A CHANCE FOR A MOUNT. For damn shame, I mean god this was Horrible. On my Pally before I parked him, I got joy on getting people a bronze drake from CoS because it felt good, to get someone a drake like others fought hard for me when I didn't even need it and some people still faff off about it.
So I really don't see the humor in this at all and tbh this is probably why your guild didn't want to come with you.
The only kids here are the ones who actually still are with this idea or who did this in the first place. Cause I only see you crowing about it to try and make you and your friend feel better about doing this to Nine Players Who Helped You Down That Damned Dragon.
Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
Compared to how the server I play on works, what my friend did was FAR more acceptable. For example, Two people from one guild will make runs on their alts to specifically ninja for people. You just gotta know how to contact them and their "password of the day" nonsense. That is just plain wrong. What happened with my friend is a sick joke at best. It's just a game, and anyone who gets bothered over it needs to reconsider why they even play in the first place.

I was kind of neutral about it, until you went and tried to brush it off, and say people didn't have a reason to get upset. Your friend there needs to grow up, and for that matter, so do you. All you had to do was say "No." And it would have been a normal roll, with no drama, and no one getting upset.

I'm sorry, I missed the part where other people's actions excused your own. I'll add it to the part about how it being a game means you can ignore other people's feelings and walk all over them. *takes notes* I want to be good at this game, you see.Kikanu wrote:I wasn't bragging about ninjaing. I was simply chronicling the events of that day for you all to read and debate on.

Anyone who has to play sick jokes like this, should be the ones reconsidering things.Kikanu wrote:It's just a game, and anyone who gets bothered over it needs to reconsider why they even play in the first place.
I'm sick and tired of It's just a game. Those people pay money, to play the game. To earn a chance to get loot, to get things, to go places, to do things, to get achievements. And your friend stole something from them, that's inexcusable even if he did allow the ones who weren't so pissed off as to leave right away.
Or are you telling me you'd not have been one of the 9 or more pissed people to leave the raid if a mount was stolen from you? What if it was Invincible, what if it was a Proto, what if it was the Ashes of Al'air?
If your friend wasn't such an Infamous ninja he wouldn't be needing a name change. As obviously you're both giving yourselves and your guild, bad names.
It's not about It's just a game. It's about having some ethics and knowing that just because it's a game shouldn't be a reason to throw away all morals and become a virtual thief.
Sar, you can also take some notes from two ninja pullers from an Underbog run of mine. Healer and Tank pulled 25 mobs then left group, giggling like mad as they left basically. A 'QQ moar!' in their wake, when we had done nothing to deserve it. Since i mean it's about as much of a sick joke as this was.*takes notes* I want to be good at this game, you see.
Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
If it was me in that raid who left, I would have been furious. They were completely justified to be pissed off, and I hope they open tickets to try and do something about it.

Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
Just as a collector, crap like this pisses me off. It's lucky to even see the mount, and hard and frusterating enough to lose the roll, let alone get it stolen from you. In my first Kara run, Atunemens mount dropped and my boyfriend rolled a 98 and told them to give the mount to me. I was SO happy. But then last minute someone rolled 100, and I was devistated haha. I couldn't imagine if that mount had actually been stolen from me with no fair shot of even trying.
>_> Stupid ninja..

Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
ive never liked ninja-ing even if a guildie did it i would always kick off and never defend them and if a friend did it .. well hello there welcome to my ingore list :B
like ive seen it all ninja wise and hearing stories just ensures you wont group with that nub who thought it was ok
to sum up no i didnt find this story funny i found it rather annoying and rude to those people who probs did slot of dps in that fight missed out on something cas of 'your friends' actions
explains why no one wanted to do that zerg with in your guild
A huge thanks to kamoodle5 for the amazing signature ♥
Re: OS 25 Twilight Drake Ninja'd - With a twist!
Indeed. The actions of the OP and his friend are nothing short of pathetic. And I don't think it was the "kids" who left, rather the kids were in charge.Sarayana wrote: I'm sorry, I missed the part where other people's actions excused your own.
