Post your LFG horror/funny stories.

Title says all. EDIT: Well shit.. we are trending. Might as well share a few of my experiences. 2 months before Rise of Iron was released, some randoms invite me out of the blue to get me to help them through King's Fall on Normal. All of the other five were salty squeakers who took 15 minutes to get past the tombship puzzle. The idiots couldn't even do Totems. Hell, one of them was only a 260. After wasting an hour of my time, I decided to ditch those stupid kids.

    Early in year one I teamed up with a random for some simple patrol, and he insisted that hard mode VoG was really easy, easier even than normal mode because "you just don't die," and that he soloed it three times a week right after reset. He said if I had a checkpoint, he would show me how quickly and easily he could solo kill Atheon, as well as a sixth, seventh, and eighth chest.

    • Joined a group for crota hard. Reasonable requirements, well written post (grammar, punctuation, spelling, and correct English word usage) and they followed up adding me very quickly. Spawned in and no one would speak English. Just German. All 5 guys. No English. That's cool with me. I'm joining them. I know what to do in the raid. I know enough German to answer yes or no to basic questions. Then they kicked me for responding to an English post that said no mic required and not being fluent in German. I don't expect everyone to use English. I do expect any lfg add's language requirements to be listed. Or match the language used in the add and following messages.

    • Not a bad experience, but just funny. Basically, we were trying to do kings fall hm. After a while of trying, everybody left me except for one other guy. He had such a slick way of bouncing too. He said "im gonna make a bowl of cereal, invite me when you find people." He then left and I had no idea what his gamertag was lmao.

    • [quote]Title says all.[/quote] Had a noob we were carrying off of lfg. Well we got to golgorath and it was challenge that week. He did surprisingly well until it was his turn to run around. He then decided that (with golgoraths gaze mind u) to run in front of the big giant ogre in the middle of the room. He then blamed us for the wipe as we did not tell him that golgi had a melee. There is probs one boss that doesn't have a melee in the whole game

      • I posted an lfg for a normal WotM run and requested everyone to be 400* and everyone was 400 except one guy who was 399. I nearly lost it, yea he had the emblem for completing it but that didn't mean shit! Luckily we found someone to replace him. [spoiler]satire[/spoiler]

        • Had a great experience just yesterday actually. 5 of my clan mates and I were bored so we decided to run Vault for fun. So we're at the beginning and a random comes through on patrol. We invite him, and it turns out he's a really chill dude. Also, he's never completed a raid before. He sticks with us the whole raid and gets his first completion and a mythoclast to boot.

        • Ask for invite to CoE fireteam. Get invited. Accept invite. Nothing happens. Get another invite. Accept. Nothing happens again. Msg host. No response. Turns out they were on XB1 while I was on 360. Details matter. [spoiler]I have since switched to XB1[/spoiler]

        • Back when Kings Fall was new, I had a dude who claimed to have done the raid 2x, but he didn't know the mechanics, so he was holding us back and was yelling at us for getting the mechanics wrong when it was right. We spent 3.6 hours up to Oryx, spent 2 hours on him cause the liar kept going to the wrong one and we kept telling him go to that one, but he didn't listen. He then got it, when we got to final stand, I immediately kicked the fag and beat the raid, then everyone was all like "bro, wtf" I told the fag "next time, don't lie" As months passed by, I met him again, but he forgot me, we played Kings Fall Heroic and whenever I talk, the dude would be like bro, you sound like the dude that made my day a whole lot worse, as we proceeded through the raid, he would tell the tales of the troll and at the end, when we got to the final stand again, I said "yo bro, it was me, I made your day a whole lot worse and I'll do it again" the dude yelled "fuuuu-" *Guardian left the fireteam* When I was playing looking to play WOTM, I found a post saying that there must be players who has done the raid and show proof, I joined with my OP, the dude was like "did you beat the raid", I was like "yes, I even have the OP", the dude was like "did you beat it though?", the other guys were laughing and saying that the OP is obtainable from beating the raid, then I asked if he had one, he replied by saying he left it in his vault. I asked him questions and then I found out "did you activate the 7th monitor?", the dude was like yea, it's easy" I immediately left after that I can tell you skipped through most of my story, now you're going back and reading all over again that's right I CAN READ YOUR MIND🤓

          • Today I jokingly said to a guy that if he keeps dying we were going to kick him. Then he says go ahead and kick me I don't care and then ends up leaving right away. I was only joking but he was playing like a scrub though so no one missed him. Some people are so damn sensitive lol.

          • Was running WoTM hard vosik challenge ,Chill team of adults. Someone had to leave so we put up an LFG ad - 12 yr old Kid joins I as the leader explain everything, where we need him etc. He replies "well I'm 400 so I'll get you all through this." So we start the run, everyone grabs charges, kid tries to start counting down despite my explicit instructions to listen to me and not try to take over. Me: "3. 2. 1. Throw" *Bitchy kid died* Kid: "COULD YOU COUNT FASTER!?!??!" Me: "Pardon?" Kid: "YOU COUNTED TOO SLOW SO I DIED" Teammate: "Bro you interrupted him and then messed up yourself" Kid: "YOU GUYS SUCK, YOU AINT 400" Me: "No I've only Kings Fall 20 times" Kid: "IM COUNTING!" *player has left your fireteam* Kid: "OH YEAH REAL MATURE" Me: "My party, My rules." *player has left the party* Teammate: "well that was a close one.." Next LFG player joins and we complete the raid + challenge in 1 hour.

              Not LFG but still funny. Last night I 2-manned the sepiks perfected strike with a rando. We got to the laser grid part and I went down by the laser grid bc I was running around balls to the wall with my shotty. The other guy ran past me a couple times and didn't bother picking me up. I sent him a msg basically saying "thanks, dick" and after explaining why he was a dick, he asked to be my friend.[spoiler]tl;dr called a guy a dick and he wanted to be my friend lol[/spoiler]

              • I have had so many bad experiences with LFG that I could write a page of stories. During my next to last raid attempt the team had just finished the first encounter with Vosik when the fireteam leader booted half the team without warning and replaced them with his friends. No, this was not a teenage fireteam leader, just another one of the many jerks in raids. Thankfully, we were not farther in the raid, or I would have been really upset. Then there is the story about my last raid attempt. One guy was drinking whiskey and dying infrequently. During the Siege Engine encounter he yelled at one of his kids, "NO! Don't touch that!" And that was the last we heard from him. "A player has left your fireteam."

                • Around the middle of December last year, me and my friend joined at Warpreitst CP on Kings Fall. The first thing we hear when we join the party is "are any of you two ni**ers?" We both reply with "uh...no...", then my friend replys with the happiest tone possible "NO, BUT HES A MEXICAN!". I spent the rest of the raid with racist jokes being directed at me, and being told to "never speak unless spoken to" because I was less of a person then them... We never even got past Warpreist after two hours.

                    I'll never forget a VoG fireteam I joined where the team leader literally sounded like a 5-year old (I mean seriously, he sounded like Ike from South Park). To make matters worse, there was another player on the same team could not stop calling everyone the "n" word For everything: "-blam!- Ima take left" "Tell me where to go -blam!- damn!" "-blam!-, -blam!-, -blam!-, I'm getting bodied, back me up -blam!-" So imagine the dialogue, four regular players stunned by this awkward combination of players. And yes, the second guy called the little boy the n word, a LOT. It was hell and I left the team after we wiped twice on the conflux round. I don't even know why I lasted so long. I still laugh about it sometimes.

                  • I was doing kings fall up to the ogre, then the one person without a mic decided to go to another players house so he could explain it to him, he took an hour to set up his PlayStation.

                    • My favorite thing is when you play trials and people say looking for flawless and they don't call out at all or their call outs get you killed

                      • Siting there doing Kings Fall with an LFG team. We wiped twice but got him down to 1/4 both times. A guy wanted to go on a bathroom break so we waited for him. He got back but another guy who didn't say he was leaving was AFK. We waited a few minutes and started hearing snoring. He fell asleep on us.

                          • Back in TTK we were at totems and I put out an LFG. A guy messages me saying that his light is a little low, but we didn't care and invited him. He joins and is a 210 light. We all died laughing and told him that we would actually do it with him when his light was up

                          • Once I LFG'd into a group on Kings Fall. Just wrapped up a raid on my night stalker, went over to my defender and started at daughters. We took down the first one easy, got to the shelf to take out the second one. Someone called out that we need a tether, I said I got it. I bubbled on the shelf. We panicked, wiped, and I got booted.
