The two most disrespectful players i have ever raided with.
So I took part in my standard Saturday night raid. Chose to help a couple of first-timers out with Vault of Glass. They were lvl 28 and 29, and both were kids.
So we got a group together, found on the Xbox One message forums, all level 30's. One of which was really friendly, and who prided himself on helping newer players, just like I do. The other two however, were so disrespectful of the situation. The first words they uttered were 'Oh great, couple of squealers and they're not even a high enough level! This'll be a long night.' I explained the situation to them, that I was helping some first time raiders out and if they wanted to leave that would be fine, no harsh words mentioned. So we got through the first couple of stages no problem. And then we got to the oracles. Unfortunately, because of the hobgoblins the two new guys died quite a few times, and every time the two other idiots threw insults at them, calling them words I would not like to utter on here.
I was so shocked to hear this. Firstly because the raid teams I am normally paired with are so helpful, friendly and we all have a laugh. Secondly, because the people who were insulting these two kids, sounded like they were exactly the same age as them! What has happened in society that makes kids of a young age so mean? Its insane.
After the raid, I spoke to the two kids in a separate party and apologised to them about what had happened. I felt responsible because these two idiots were invited to the raid by myself. And you know what they said? 'Ah that's not a problem, we tend not to listen to the meaner players in games, we mute them and carry on with things.' That put a smile on my face, a big smile. These two kids were so mature about the situation. I told them I would be happy to play with these guys again, and if they ever needed help I would only be an invite away.
Lets make this community a friendly one guys, I know there's the trolls who thrive on misery but let's ignore them!
EDIT: I have to say, I didn't think my post would have this much of a response. It's really great to know there's other people who like to help newer players out there! Keep up the good work Guardians!

I love helping people. It's fun to see someone's reaction to their first VoG. It's something everyone should enjoy, even if they die a lot. If it's someone's first VoG, have a bit of fun, especially on normal. Talk to them, explain it, make jokes, HAVE FUN. I hate it when I see posts like this. It makes me think of how immature some players are. It's a game. It's their first time. Have some fun.

3 RepliesGood lookin' out, Guardian! Always good to hear there are helpful people out there, looking out for others. Got invited to raid by someone I'd met doing a Nightfal today, figured, sure why not? Whole room was not only kids but YOUNG ones, a few were even first-timers. I thought, ehhhh, let's see how this goes. They were all great kids, very nice, no ragers or screamers and one was even a good leader (obviously experienced and was even patient) so I just stayed off the mic, only occasionally offering encouragement or explaining something a little differently when the leader's instructions weren't being understood. Took us 4 or 5 tries, but we beat it on normal. It was so cool to hear a couple of them go nuts after getting a completion, one in particular got the Hunger and lost his mind...lol, it was great! Once he calmed down (with the young leader congratulating him and explaining the perks) he actually thanked us (granted, basic courtesy, but rare these days). Absolutely made my day and greatly softened the groin kick of RNG "blessing" me with 3 shards... Lol Earlier helped two younguns get their first nightfall completion too. They died...A LOT...but were very nice and never made any excuses. Great excitement then too, especially when one hit the Glasshouse, his first exotic drop. I could care less about their age. Will you listen? Can you play? Are you polite? Can you laugh at yourself and own up? We can play together. If you're a rager, or screamer, or the "know- it-all" telling EVERYONE how to play, or if you have no sense of humor, or are rude in any way, then I don't care what your age is, I don't have time for you.

You and those two kids are legend. This community should be more like you guys.

1 ReplyThis is what I want to see in the community more, but the community is mostly crying about nerfs, buffs, or the game itself.

It seems like vog is ripe with idiots. Thats the main reason I don't do it anymore. Only ran normal once, hard once. The third time they said I was doing something wrong, i asked what it was several times and then got yelled at and booted. I even told them it was my third time before we started. Thats why i have full crota gear, and only 2 vog armor pieces, no vog weapons sadly. One day I'll run it agian for the vex, one day.

I wish my first time doin VoG was like this. Story time kids. Grab your popcorn! So, I was with a good friend of mine and we decided to do VoG. I was a level 26 at the time, and my friend was a level 32. He found a group of 3 I believe at Gorgon part. So, I joined and there's 2 level 32's and 1 level 27. So, me being the lowest level and not knowing how to do anything, I decided to stay back and watch the other people so I could learn how to do it. Well, we got to Atheon and I had no clue what was going on, and I was really confused. I died quite a few times due to harpies and other stuff, and the response I got was horrendous. They called me a squeaker (Even though I was older than ALL of them in the party, and had a much deeper voice) they called me a -blam!-, and other words I don't wanna mention. All in all, it was pretty bad, but kept tellin myself I'm never gonna see these kids again. So, I pushed through it and ended up getting Vision of Confluence! That's it for my rant.

Got into a raid group with 2 dbags who insulted me and everyone Repeatedly, left to get high for like 10 minutes, laughed about it and then kept purposely jumping off bridge on crota raid.
-
so when the guys were saying mean things you didn't boot them?
-
Awesome job sir. You are a true gamer.

1 ReplyWhen someone wants to be a cûnt in our raids we kick them outright or wait until just before finishing an objective and kick them. The community for raids has degraded immensely since November .
-
3 RepliesYou should name them so we can all avoid them. :)
-
You should have waited until Atheon was low on health, and when the team was about to kill him kick the other two so they would not have gotten rewards
-
I'd like to fight those 2 in Rumble. Let's see who'll be the noob then.

I got invited into a raid Friday night by someone I meet on here who said he was an older gamer like myself. When i got there it was alot of lower levels trying to do Crota. No problem, guy who invited me is a 32 will be a good time. So I join the Party......all kids, young kids. Apparently the guy who invited me was using Dads account. No one knew what to do, one wanted us to revive him so he could take the sword across. Not five mins in i start to hear, "My mom is telling me its time to go." I stayed until they all gave up and did what I could, but it was futile. I really wish people would just create sub accounts for the kids or something. I join expecting one thing, and get something totally different. I do not mind helping others, but I am not an expert raider and cant give much directions let alone direct a bunch of teenagers.
-
This made my day, im glad there is someone out there helping the little guys out. I tip my hat to you sir :)
-
2 RepliesI've never completed VoG before... Mind if I join you sometime?
-
7 RepliesEveryone was a squeaker at one point... I hate when people are elitist about it.

Games should make you out in your Social security to prove age
-
Hey, great to hear and it's crap that the kids have to be used to sort of behavior from others.
-
i totally hear you, its really mean and i have said before, we all want the rewards and to do well, we were helped when we first started, why cant people be more accepting. its sad when that guy said they were use to it, it should not be the case. well done.
