Had a bad situation last night in the ghost room in Unrest. Want to run it
by everyone to get your opinion.

I was in the ghost room in Unrest late last night. There were only two
groups in the entire zone. Party consisted of me (29 bard), a 35 bard, 30
cleric, 30 shaman, 32 warrior and a 31 druid. I had been in the group for
about an hour and the group itself had been in the ghost room for a long
time with no problems. Five minutes after the warrior camped for the night,
the ghost spawned. With no true tank to dish out melee damage, we had to
rely on the casters to do the bulk of the damage. We slowly whittled the
ghost down to less than 50% health. Everyone except the druid was still
over 75% health. Ghost was attacking the druid so she couldnt get an
ensnare off. Both myself and the other bard tried chaining the ghost but
neither of us could get it to stick. All three casters were OOM when the
ghost started fleeing (around 25% health). The two bards chased him, still
trying to chain with no success. The casters medded so they could get
another nuke off. The ghost got to the hallway and of course activated a
hag and a GDB near the lava pit. Everything went downhill from there and
four of us died. Druid was only caster able to gate out.

I was bound in GFAY. Before I could finish memming my songs, the group
leader (the shaman) said he had to leave so he could complete one of the
shaman armor quests. Everyone told him to hold off until we all got our
corpses back. He said that he had to hurry because he didn't have much
time. I asked him why he was in such a hurry when he could complete the
quest at any time. He never responded and disbanded the group. The druid
was a friend of his and they teleported out. I sent him a /tell saying that
it was very bad etiquette to disband the group before everyone could get
their corpse back. He blew me off.

The cleric gave me a res and then an invis to undead. The cleric had
already gotten his corpse and was only sticking around to res me and give me
an invis to undead. He camped so I had to get my corpse by myself. My
corpse was by the lava pit. I got to it and started to pull my corpse to
the zone when my invis wore off. A werebat in the pit saw me and that ended
up pulling the entire pit on top of me. I got attacked by the werebat, a
hag, skeletal monk and a GDB and ended up dying before I could get to the
top of the staircase. Sure wished fear song would have kicked in.

I was really pissed at this point. Sent the shaman a nasty message telling
him that I had died again and that he was totally uncool for disbanding the
party. Once again he blew me off. To say the least I will never ever group
with him again.

Was wondering what the general consensus is with you guys on the shaman's
behavior. In every group I have been in so far everyone stuck around until
everyone got their corpse back, especially the group leader. I was totally
appalled by the shaman's behavior. This was far and away the maddest I have
been since I have been playing. It was also the first time I have ever
gotten into a /tell argument with someone over any issue. Anyone who has
ever grouped with me can tell you that I can get along with just about
anybody. This guy pushed me beyond my limits though. Was I out of line for
expecting the group leader to stick around?
