My encounter with Slidein

[Phildorex]

I have a 21 enchanter, Lewit. I was hunting gargoyles in OOT. Everything was going fine. Later, a level 40 wizard shows up named Slidein, from Lineage. He is quadding the specs.

I killed a gargoyle but had to take some hits to keep my pet alive. I went back to the little tree in the corner of the island to bandage myself. While bandaging, Slidein pulls a quad of specs right on top of me, and they instakill me.

Why would anyone pull a quad of specs right on top of another player, someone who is sitting in the "safe spot" in the corner of the island? At best, it's reckless and shows a complete lack of respect for other players.

I waited for at least an apology, but received nothing. I messaged him, and he decided to berate me and accuse me of intentionally messing up his quad in violation of the PnP rules. Pretty much every tell he send was rude and insulting. I had my swear filter on, so I didn't get all of his brilliance.

I told him I have screenshots and would post them. He encouraged me to post them and explain what happened. I've never posted in Rants and Flames before.

As you can see, I had just killed a gargoyle and was bandaging myself. You can see him casting then his specs attack me. My pet, a chanter sword pet, only attacks a mob after it hits me first, as you can see. I cannot offensively attack a mob with the pet. Following are all of our exchanges plus a screenshot that shows I died at the tree that's a safe spot on that island.

I am a member of "No Time to Rez", a permadeath guild. So, because of this reckless and obnoxious player, I have to delete my character due to no fault of my own. Back to square one.

-5 stars for neither player knowing how undead aggro works.

I started bandaging before he pulled the specs right on top of me. Each bandage takes several seconds. I was in a safe spot. Please enlighten me - what did I do wrong to cause my death?

The specs aggroed to me, so clearly he was mistaken about them ignoring me unless I did something to them.

Is there any scenario where Slidein isn't 100 percent at fault?

[OriginalContentGuy]

All I can think to say even though Slidein clearly ignorant is sorry you don't got time to rez.

[Ekco]

i don't think there is a safe way to kite spectres if a lower level player is doing gargs, same way spectres or sand giants pulled near docks would always stop to smoke people sitting or standing there before resuming chasing the person that initially pulled them

After dying, my gnome went back to bind point in Steamfont. I think I sent him a one word tell "why?" upon dying. He didn't respond.

I was running back to the BB docks, so I immediately zoned to LFay then GFay. I sent the 2nd tell when I zoned to GFay, and that's when he first responded. Our entire conversation is in the post.
