[b][u]Before anyone gets all salty and abuses me in the comments, have a good read.[/b][/u]
So last night a friend and I were going to dive into a level 34 PoE, and as per usual we go LFG to get a third Guardian to help us.
For anonymity's sake we're going to call this guy "SuperScrub". SuperScrub replied saying he was, and I quote; "Highly skilled, all exotics, maxed Gally."
Naturally my friend invites him and we get on our way. The problems start here.
He joins and he's a 33 Warlock. No problem, my friend is 33 and I'm 34, no issues here. Skill is key.
When my friend and I are jumping around, blasting the heck out of Vex and this guy is just standing in a corner of the room, not doing anything. Of course, he dies. We both then get messages from this guy. Weird, right? It gets better. He's typed up some long ass message basically saying "Join my clan PLS IT'S SO GOOD."
My friend is the founder of his clan, and I the admin of mine, so we kindly decline this and keep playing.
Only he doesn't do anything. Every room, he just stands still, dies, pops his Fireborn, and dies again. The epitome of skill.
Through much pain and suffering, my friend and I manage to get to the end, punch Gulrot in his ganky face and get praised by Variks. The dude of course is magically active now, as the sweet prospect of rewards is dangled in front of him. My friend and I sail down to the bottom and wait.
The second he touches down, we both wave, and I kick him.
I don't reward Leeches.
TL;DR : SuperrScrub LFG leech got booted at Treasure Room for leeching.
[spoiler]Edit 1: Front page of Trending ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Edit 2: 2nd highest on trending, 100+ replies!
Edit 3: Stop looking through my match history, you pervs ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Edit 4: Holy heck this blew up.
Edit 5: Lots of Salty Sallies in this thread, some people can't read it seems :~)
Edit 7: Made some words bold, too many people can't read.
Final Edit: This blew up heaps. I've also never seen so many white knights defending a leech. Maybe you should all carry a bunch seeming as you love them so much! :~)
Final final edit: 257 upvotes, 602 comments, Trending, etc. Thanks a bunch![/spoiler]

Good one.
-
Op not a fegit
-
Well the kid deserved it. Sure you could of kicked him sooner but I think it was a good lesson for him. Someone that doesn't contribute to the fight doesn't earn a damn think.
-
It sounds as if you just kept him around to be boot him at the end. The guy lacked skill and was dishonest about his abilities, yeah, but if you didn't feel like carrying him just boot him in the beggining. The guy would have found a fireteam that'd be happy for carry him through a 34 POE. Patrol is more difficult.
-
You do know that your history contradicts what you just posted right?
-
Instead of being a whiny pussy you shouldve just called him on it. Then you would've either a) completed it faster and with less trouble or b) weeded out a scrub early instead of using him as insurance throughout the poe. 3 is always better than 2, so by some standard, he did help you. You were just spineless and immature.
-
People like that in every matchmade activity, does my nut
-
You're an idiot for not booting him sooner
-
lol wow kudos to you you can also report him for inactivity
-
You did perfect, he waisted his time by just standing there & waiting till the end to be all active instead of helping
-
you did well dude . loot isnt for afk people... thats why i always report afk/inactive people in strikes
-
Jerk, he may have not deserved it. But you still wasted a lot of his time.
-
Notice the overuse of "and", as well as all the anoying bragging as he describes himself... ( I'm good at PvP. I like Sniper Rifles. And Hand Cannons. And headshots. And Hunters. (ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง fight me ) He must be 11, or 12. Go back to school jr. stop bragging about a game you likely cheat at, stick to ben 10 omniverse.
-
That's crap dude, you should have booted him way earlier than that.
-
I dont use lfg, always play with my friends that i made in destiny. But with all these so called elitists on lfg, i can understand why people are lying to get in a group! I also understand why you weren't happy with him, but in my opinion you're the bad guy in the situation. If it was really as bad as you say it was, then you could've kicked him after the first round. You should've let the dude get his rewards!
-
Good, we also had a leach, happend today I kicked him when we finished skolas.
-
Should of kicked him earlier
-
I disagree with you. He may not have been highly skilled, but he was still there doing what he could. You have NO RIGHT to kick someone from rewards like that. Bungie, please fix this. Make it so that no-one can be booted during the rewards portion of PoE. That's just way too much power. Guys like this think they're God for Christ sake.

Edited by Intox__Reboot: 8/21/2015 6:38:07 AMYou sir are exactly why I would never join an LFG team for PoE, I'm no scrub I can hold my own but it's not about that....it's about trust....hearing to many stories of dbaggs dragging people to the end and then kicking them to get their friends in....
-
Honestly man you could've asked him why he's doing that? You said he dies a lot and sits in a corner. Sounds like he's trying to survive to me. Maybe he doesn't know what he's doing? Maybe he doesn't know your tactic in that arena? A lot of people get kicked cause they don't know what they're doing and they have no one to show them. Don't be fooled when you see a 34, that's easily achievable. Bottom line is, communication is the key. He should've told you, you should've asked etc. But bragging about it in the forum is not a nice thing to do.
-
Why wait though? For me, if someone is useless I speak up, and if it doesn't change, he's gone.
-
Salty sallies. Lol
-
If you don't participate then you shouldn't be playing. Nobody likes a random player that doesn't help with the objective. Should of booted him sooner IMO.
-
So basically you and your buddy were cowards at asking him what's going on with his gameplay,but was bold enough to respond to a clan invite.....and then went back to cowardly booting him without an explanation or telling him first.[spoiler]i tell you what,he wasn't the "superscrub" that day[/spoiler]
-
You still haven't addressed the fact that your recent PoE activities shows ALL players with kills.
-
Lol nice
