Be me, playing 
, and running DNC in a Smileton roulette. I notice that both the tank and the other DPS are supposedly new, so I throw out one-sentence little tips on the mechanics of the boss fights, just so that they’re not taken too off guard. Tank apparently takes offense that I’m trying to be nice, and kicks me from the party. [free to mute]

The healer was also not new, and kept trying to encourage the tank to do double pulls by sorta running ahead, like, “You can keep going, it’s okay!” They never pulled any other mobs, but just kept sorta encouraging. Tank was doing single pulls, and I figured that y’know what, everyone goes at their own pace, it’s fine.
I comment at the second boss, “Big aoes in the direction of the arrows” and the tank says, “So they point out the mechanics just like every boss fight, big deal”
This after both the tank and the other dps died to the mechanics of the first boss fight
I said, “Okay, no more offering tips to new players, got it.” Of course, I then got, “I didn’t ask for any”
I just decided to no longer engage with them, didn’t want to feed the trolls. After the fight, healer said, “dnc was just trying to be helpful,” and I told them that it was okay, I wasn’t going to spend any more time interacting than was needed
Then as we head into the first pull of the next area, my screen goes black and I’m notified that I was vote-kicked, probably by the tank and the other dps out-voting the healer
I logged off the game entirely just now and put my computer away because otherwise I’mma launch it in pure rage
I hope the healer abandoned them
I hope they get a completely blind new healer and new dps
I hope that they die against the final boss so many times that their gear breaks, and they run out of time and the dungeon kicks them out
I hope that the tank accidentally nudges his gaming system’s power cord and unplugs it right before he wins the loot roll for an item that he was trying to grind for forever
I just
I remember when this game was known for having a fantastic and supportive community
I remember how a sign of a good tank was that they’d check for any players new to the dungeon and go over mechanics with them, and if they themselves were new, they’d ask for tips
for the sake of saying it: you're not crazy. that tank is wrong. I wish them wet socks and itchy shirts.

That does help
Tank needs to walk barefoot on legos
That tank was just nasty. I play WoW but I love when a veteran tells me mechanics.
that tank was absolutely in the wrong, and in my experience this is not common
The other part that pissed me off is that the other DPS, who died twice to the first boss, also voted to kick me.
Regardless, I wish that I’d stayed online and sent in a report about that tank.
Man, most of the time people are chill, but when you get bad people they are really bad
