Go ahead and check his post history to find out that this guy is a sexist, racist, abelist, transphobe and all sorts of other wonderful things.

Or better yet don't and just take my word on it because holy gently caress.

Hey friends,

Looking for a new FC, the one I'm in right now is loving trash. Hoping to find a group of people who actually enjoy the game and don't spend their lives bitching about it. Also people who aren't complete losers. Here are some examples of the kind of people (all of them are on Excalibur in the FC Third Party Tools [EULA]) that I'm NOT looking for:

Enchilada Night - In the running for number one douchebag in the FC. This idiot loves to brag about how much gil he has. When talking to people who are struggling for cash, he'll say such wonderful things as "Oh, I've forgotten what it's like to need money in this game." And he'll be serious about it too, oblivious to what a shitbag he sounds like. And none of this will stop him from needing on everything he can, whenever he can. The FC has a policy against talking about story spoilers in chat, so of course Enchilada went on a spoiler spree, got called out for it, demoted from being an officer, then got pissy about it. A true man-child. He sucks at the game too, so watch out if you see him in your group.

Oliver Cox - It's like "cocks" see? But with an X! Yep, Oliver is gay. And like most of the stupid side of homosexuals, he defines himself entirely by his sexuality. He constantly chats about his rear end, making the worst sorts of jokes in a desperate bid for attention. Someone might say something like "This encounter is pretty hard" and Oliver will quickly respond "My rear end is hard". When no one pays attention to him, he either ups the frequency of the pathetic gay talk or starts saying equally stupid things about his cat Pancakes. Yes, even the cat has a stupid name. Oliver is a grown man who lives with his mother, works for a call-center, and can't even get laid using Grindr. I know this because he likes to use free company chat as his own personal blog from time to time. He usually plays a scholar, and he is awful at it.

Nicaden Cormac - This loser loves to talk about his amazing puns, but no one finds him funny. When he is not getting attention, he starts typing random sets of gibberish in chat and claims it's his dog jumping up and playing around. Isn't that cute? It's especially considerate of the dog to press enter after eight to ten keystrokes each time, so chat can get spammed with several lines and we can all notice Nicaden. Nicaden also claims to be deaf. Mental and genetic flaws run rampant in this FC.

Emeline Ardente - This person is just an all-around grumpy oval office who loves to complain about nearly everything in the game, as if they are some sort of expert and could do it better. Emeline also sucks at the game, and was recently booted from their static for it. This caused them to stop logging in for a while, and it was really nice.

Yuki Yuyuki - Yuki is another insufferable grouch who can't help but complain about everything. Back when Bozja was still fresh, Yuki really wanted the titles for winning all the duels. But Yuki was having trouble getting selected for the duels. Oh the rage. Yuki hated everyone who already had a title, because they were denying him his rightful due. He raged about it so hard in FC chat that others had to tell him to simmer down. Even annoying Oliver tried to calm him down, but this only caused Yuki to rage harder. He managed to make Oliver look like the good guy for a night, which is really hard to do. Then Yuki raged so much he actually "quit" the game. Only for two weeks or so unfortunately. No one missed him.

Lance Doomtaker - Lance is just pathetic. He's constantly trying to sell things to other free company members for prices that are rarely better than the market board, and sometimes higher. His chat generally consists of, surprise surprise, complaining about nearly every mechanic in the game. He is, of course, a terrible player himself. He likes to tank but sucks at every role, so watch out for him.

TPT did have to try to stop Yuki from being continually salty over the duel mechanic in Bozja though. :v:

(Not that they were actually wrong; the process could definitely stand to be refined.)

But yeah, big yikes on whoever the hell this was that got under the radar long enough to formulate half-wrong-at-best opinions on a half-dozen of TPT's members.

My favorite bit with the fae in Il Mheg is (Shadowbringers spoiler) when the Fuath decide to drown you, so you can join them, but it's foiled by the WoL's ability to breathe underwater. So you just get teleported to a random spot in the lake and have to swim back to shore.

my enjoyment of this part was expanded even more by Alisaie freaking out as much as/more than everyone else when she above everyone else should know you have that power, because she got it with you
