Booted a guy at Treasure Room, no regrets.

[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]

  • Apparently, I disagree with the majority of the Destiny player base. We all seem to have forgotten that these games are all in fun. You people condemning the player who got booted are the same people who abide by the simple and illogical philosophy of "He just sat there while the other players did all the work." I'm sorry, but when did gaming become "work"? I have fun playing Prison of Elders whether a player is standing around or not. To me, it's more fun to try and 2 man it than to immediately try to invite someone else in. If I start dying a lot or we keep having to start over, that's when it becomes irritating and I'm not having fun anymore. It's at that point that I'll boot the person not playing and try to get someone else in. I'm sorry but you waiting until the treasure room to boot him in order to "teach him a lesson" , which he probably won't learn because he's obviously done this sort of thing before, that's just you using that opportunity to troll another player and look like the innocent one. Sure, maybe the player standing around might be trolling in his own sort of weird way, but that's when you boot him and find someone else or just 2 man it, LIKE YOU DID ANYWAY. To me, you're just as bad of a troll as the guy standing around.
