The one thing I never ever EVER wanted to see, I saw..
King Behemoth's name in ORANGE.

Apparently, a JP HNM LS got a little angry over the servers' most prominant english-speaking HNM LS winning the pull, and somehow manage to steal and/or call for help on the beast, and proceed to kill it..

Apparently, if the NA's get the pull, it warrants this cheap, childish action. Really now! Some people need to stop being babies about it.

The english HNM LS won the pull fair and square! Let them have it, and try again next time.. Yeesh..

[Also, I kind of expected KB to be bigger than he was.. He wasn't very behemoth in size, to be honest.. But that's just a side note..]

My condolances to AkuAdvanced, for getting their hard earned kill stolen from them in such a way. Ugh.

If they got the pull how would the other LS be able to call for help on it? Thats well impossible... If it's claimed by one group how can another do that??

It's an HNM.. Not only must it be kite tanked, but it also must change hands [usually] between two alliances.. As such, it's bound to go unclaimed for a moment.

There's also a bizarre bug out there that can cause a skillchain to drop your claim for a split second. There's a lot of drama of this sort of stuff. Makes you not want to become super powered.

King Behemoth gets /help'd so damn much >.> This isn't nowhere near the first time......It's been almost dead before, someone accidentally /help'd it. This was the first time I know of it happened like this tho~. I forgot which jp ls did it, but they also killed it /help'd I was told >.>. That's just insane. JPs have that edge on pulling things.....and when they lose to NA it MUST be some sort of insult...but that's just retarded. (Just like a certain thf winning pull on Megalobugard with DARTS over jps with VOKE and it popped nearer to them....they stalked him the rest of the day doing /angry XD)

Ah, so they just managed to get it when it was not claimed or someone accidentially called on it. Though if they got it when it wasn't claimed I have to ask why they would have called for help on it?

As for them having an advantage... we're talking microseconds here... It's not an excuse we can use for them beating us on pulls. I stood around spook beating an AF Japanese Rdm for hours one day. Yeah the servers are closer to them but the data moves at the speed of electricity which is damn fast.

There will be a slight delay for US players over JP simply because they are located closer to the server. But it won't mean a thing if a JP player hits their macro a split second later than an NA player with broadband.

no, they did it on purpose this time. The JP ls claimed when he went yellow, and oranged him...then killed him. JPs do have an advantage, too many people with broad band and the like(tho~ supposedly we're all capped down to 56k anyway) have had mobs pop purple to them. Happens with Fafnir and all a loooooot.

The GMs really need to do something about sh*t like this. When people are playing the game for over a month of play time to get high enough to even attempt to claim/kill the mob, just to have it stolen, it really creates a problem. I know there is no use petitioning or writing hate mail to Squeenix or anything like that, but this problem really needs to be fixed. Even if it is something that pertains to HNMs only. IE if the HNM is stolen from you and the other alliance purposefully screws you over. I know it's really a gray area, but there needs to be some solution out there.

Edit: If they want to put in HNMs for us to fight, then make it possible, so that it isn't possible for another party to ***** over the first by some lame bug.

I heard about this as it happened. Some of my lsmates were near the scene and my pt went on and on talking about KB and the people on the alliance and equipment. >_>

Din't anyone see the name of the person who called for help? It usually says:

Person called for Help

What would you do to that person? >_>

Yeah, They called for help, and proceeded to kill it... Pretty lame if you ask me..

Anyway, I wasn't close enough to it to see who called for help.. I just remember that AOE stun thing hitting me, and then it suddenly went from purple to orange, and I said "Oh I KNOW I did not just see that.."

Seriously. they need to stop being babies about things and accept that EN players CAN outpull them. Just because they outpulled JP doesn't mean they stole it.

What I find kinda ironic is that this is the kind of immature behavior that many JP's constantly berate us NA's for.

Looks like jackassiness knows no national boundaries.
