Things That Trigger Us

I spent today fuming angrily at every moment. I don't think that's what Iruna should be like, for me at least. I just wanted to share some personal stories that made me upset. And I know some people hate the same things, or probably might want a fellow person to rant to, and I just thought to create a little chit chat thread to cover that daily sadness.

Last Sunday
I was sitting in Rokoko S1 trying to sell a few boss Xtals along with my slotted Atleta Ring. I said it was for 800m. Someone else was selling for 700, and then a third person tells me he saw someone selling for lower. I suspect foul play, as in the dual logger that uses multiple characters to try and fool me into dropping to lower prices. This atleta ring belonged to my best friend, and since I had finally decided on getting that Green Mamonea and Sauro 2 Red, I decided why the heck not. 
I was feeling all proud at not falling for the scammy trick I felt I detected earlier. (It may not have been.) But this guy offers a trade for it. He shows me a Koda 2s and asks me to throw in a few more items. Guess what? I threw in 2 billion worth of items. And I was just stupid enough to not check right before the trade. He had switched the Koda out for a one slotted Koda. Both were re-upped, +9, at max attack. I got really fooled. I probably shouldn't put his name on here, courtesy and all. That day, I lost my compassion.

Yesterday
I was doing some good old Yarde leveling, and decided to look for a party. My regen is fairly slow, and I really didn't want to sit down every so often, so I said in the regular old say chat that I was looking for a party. Suddenly, bam! I get 5-6 different party requests, popping up and in mail. Every single one of them was below level 70, asking for me to please oh please pls pls pls help them lvl up. Not only was I surprised. I was amazed. Is this what the +1000% exp has done to us? I've never really liked beggars, less so after I tell them no. Hindsight is always 20-20. I really should have just kept to myself. All the friend requests and party requests led me to my demise. I can't aim and dodge party requests and delete mail all at once. 

Today
I felt that I hadn't been trying hard at leveling recently. My exp was only 1 star, but I decided that won't affect the Yarde quest exp. So, I went on the group chats and found a party. The party leader assigned the roles, and I got to kill the lovely yardes with a ninja. The first thing he says is that I am not high level enough, so that the leader should kick me. Upon further questioning, he tells me that it is because I have to be 276 or higher to stun yardes. What's the word? Flabbergasted. That was me. So I told him that first, that's not really how life works, and second, that it would be 275 if it was. So he corrects me, saying that as long as the enemy hp is 95% or above, my sicarius should trigger if I am above the mob's level. Then he proceeds to kill the sidatz and leaves me to die when the party leader appointed him to the yardes. I asked him to not spread that information because it is incorrect. He says it didn't matter, since I am most likely one of those people that will switch to Silent Kill at 300. I said, "Thanks buddy. Any more insults?" He says "lol didnt know i was being insulting". Therefore, the leader kicks me from party and I blacklist the ninja. 

I found a great pally friend the other day, though. That's the lovely life story of this last week. You all probably have some triggering things you want to get off your chest too.
