[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]

Isn't it against the bungie.net code of conduct to say someones name on the forums and especially if your not saying anything good about them?
-
What did you expect his name is SuperScrub
-
If u could do without him....why didn't you: A. Boot him earlier 2. Just 2 man the whole POE anyway Sounds like you are justifying to your self what u did was right. Based on what you are stating here, sounds fair. A little extreme perhaps? Only you can answer that. I wonder if Super Scrub would agree with how you narrated it 100%.
-
Lol you should have just kicked him right away instead of waiting till the end. You only made your fight harder for no reason.
-
Made my day
-
The dude should actually play the game next time instead of being carried or "leeching".
-
Man, I wouldn't even let him have the rep gain.
-
Completely understood. I probably would have booted his punk-a$$ early on; however, I cannot help but to admire the poetic revenge at the end - well played sir. I like the cut of your jib.
-
Did you offer to help him? Maybe give him tips? Well that's ok... Next guys problem I guess...
-
Seems legit. No hate
-
Fair enough
-
I don't agree with kicking people from the treasure room so a friend can join and not go through the prision...but this...this I can agree with.
-
Fair play man. He didn't pull his weight.
-
Good, I hate people like this.
-
He deserved it period. You don't help you don't get rewarded.
-
Good style. That's so sick. I support this 100%
-
It's harsh but warranted. GG op for not abiding parasites.
-
Some people might say that it was immature or a dick move to wait until that very moment to kick him. If I was in that situation, I probably would. Not always, but probably. Maybe for giggles? Who knows? Personally, it would be a more effective way to teach him a lesson by having him sit there for x amount of time just to get kicked the moment he sees that golden chest. Then again, I wouldn't make it into a habit because it is still immature (and funny), but it is a pain 2 manning it when you could just get a replacement and get it over with. That said, while it is funny and maybe worthwhile to take things into your own hands, I wouldn't make a habit out of it.

This is why we can't have nice things
-
Sometimes you gota do what you gota do as a fireteam leader. But will you tune into [url]twitch.tv/exrav3n[/url] for your chance to go to the lighthouse this weekend?
-
It's people like you who ruin this game. If you're gonna kick him do it earlier in game.
-
Good on you mate. From the looks of this kid he doesn't do much killing of anything.
-
you are a reason why the game needs matchmaking , stupid kick abuser
-
Lol he deserved it
-
I got kicked in the treasure room for getting the most kills on every round. And dismantling most of the mines, etc. I haven't touched poe since. And I really want to do Gulrot for grimoire
-
I'm not normally into this but after reading the post it looked like brony didn't bring a single thing to the table, so by all means... Never kicked someone for that reason or had that experience with lfg though.
