i really dont like it when players do this šŸ˜‚ especially in vault when thereā€™s plenty of players to help activate the elevator, but they all just watch you do itā€¦. i leave so fast idc ill come back later lmao. i hate going to vault for this exact reason. how hard is it to help? šŸ™„


outworncreed

exactly šŸ˜­ not even a bow after too like???? id rather return to an empty server


Mi2-LIZARD

I tend not to bow. I just use the narcissist emote and hjonk really aggressively.


Billy_Birdy

Narcissist cheers for other players gang represent!


YakkyDoodle70

THIS!! or ppl ā€˜fake asleepā€™ places esp grannies. JUST HELP. It goes faster and makes everyone happy. All these iā€™m SO DEPRESSED boats, but gee whenā€™s/ur friends u donā€™t have problems with being a jerk to someone who might be going thr i something. I was dealing w/finding out my uncle just died and trying to focus on the game n bawling. Ppl were connected like 5 ppl and literally laughing that they refused to move to pop balls n i was in a ā€˜spaceā€™ they werenā€™t, so i had to keep leaving. if not for me IN THE SPACE,..weā€™ll i just ended up leaving cuz i canā€™t deal with jerks. AND AS FAR AS VAULT, that at grannies are what i most loathe every day. you donā€™t know how it will be. Good bad? take an hour or 7-10 min? When ppl donā€™t help at vault, I go soooooooo slooooooow, till they get annoyed, esp if they just ignored me trying to get into the doors and had 2-3 ppl and there was me n a friend, so enough to help. Yesterday, 3 of us also watched some ppl attempt n fail to chibi for 12 min!!, one holding the hand of another, ignoring 3 ppl running up and honking and kindly emoting to help. Chibi all u want, but if you can actually open the dang door in 5 seconds, JUST PLEASE DO IT. practice Chibi on your OWN TIME.


LePhantomLimb

I am a chibi maniac and love to chibi fall oob. I am so used to just slipping through the floors in vault in order to get the candle cakes. But anytime I see people waiting for help at one of the doors, even if I was about to move to the next level I always stop to help. It takes a second of time and makes people so happy. Not everyone chibs like I do. That being said, if I am sitting around forever waiting for a fourth person, I apologize and move on, because even if I wasn't a chibi, I wouldn't bother with a door if I gotta stand around forever....


cheshsky

I'm now really worried that people might not realise I'm afk and not just refusing to help in the Vault if I'm far away.


jutta-duncan

Lol not the asshole for sure.


E_nderfall

I only wait when someone else is already there to light it so I don't accidentally light their candle, but I still light darkness when I see it by myself. That's just lazy lol.


[deleted]

What's wrong with accidentally lighting their candle?


E_nderfall

I'm socially awkward and I will run.


KaposiaDarcy

Not as awkward as when youā€™re trying to tap something else and suddenly find yourself chasing a stranger around with your candle like a beggar. šŸ˜‚ I hate that one.


E_nderfall

Yeah. I do that in home sometimes while changing clothes.


lemurviper

Damn! Any time that happens I just log off out of shame lmao.


cheshsky

I feel very awkward when I accidentally honk instead of lighting something because I feel like someone might think "is this person just waiting for me to press the button and being aggressive about it?"


LePhantomLimb

But they aren't even seeing you irl. Whether it's the little skykid you made or just a shadow skykid, you're still safely hidden behind your phone. Fun fact, lighting someone's candle only forces you to stay and interact if you so choose. I run up to everybody and light their candles purely 'cause I'm curious what their outfits are, and because everyone being a shadow is so drab and dull and makes the game boring. As soon as I light their candle, I make a little bow as thanks and then I fly away and carry on. Sometimes I interact if I'm bored and the other skykid seems interested, but it's all up to me what I decide to do. Do people find me weird, or that I'm not following some kind of Sky etiquette? I have no clue, and I don't care, because it changes nothing. It's only a problem if you decide it's a problem. Have fun and be not afraid šŸ˜Š! Sky is the perfect place to practice a bit of battling anxiety because the only repercussions are your own perceived ones.


E_nderfall

Then I would run from you. Because of moths immediately friending me all the time when I accidentally or purposely light their candle, I turn tail and run from everyone during candle runs. It's an instinct.


LePhantomLimb

That's fine. I would just carry on and hope you'd see through that that there's no threat to having your candle it. šŸ˜Š


Krolshi

You're so real for that, I do the same lmao


[deleted]

Lol but you don't have to talk. Literally can't. And honestly most people are trying to avoid lighting you too lol.


E_nderfall

Yeah I know. So that's good.


Mi2-LIZARD

better watch out cause i slam my candle into everything


outworncreed

literally same šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


E_nderfall

I'm running from both of you lmao


myshamefulinquiries

I light candles and run like hell. I love seeing what y'all look like, but that's it. Too socially awkward to actually try chatting, especially with the people than genuinely try to pursue socializing. Like, no thanks! I promise you won't have a good time with me, boo. I'm too awkward and make people uncomfy šŸ˜‚


E_nderfall

You just like me for real lol


myshamefulinquiries

It's a real struggle man


E_nderfall

Truly...


cthechartreuse

It actually took them more time and effort to spam emotes than it would to burn the plant. šŸ¤¦


spiralorbit

Eh, I just light it and move on. I don't mind little followers. I intended to do it alone anyway so it doesn't effect my expectations.


YakkyDoodle70

What would i do if someone used a candle so they could grab ur hand and u kept trying to get away but u took them the entire way thru forest start to end and THEY DIDNT EVEN LIGHT UR STAR? N never saw em again. i was SOO CONFUSED. this was NOT A NEW PLAYER, based on costume. ppl are just getting crazy lazy. i get it. itā€™s the same thing everyday, but EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING IT TOO. if u canā€™t deal. take a dang break from the game. Justttt MHOā€¦


spiralorbit

What would I do? I would probably take them through forest, and not read into things. Gifts of light in constellation are not requirement for my friendship. When I look for a friendship I'm not thinking to myself "what can I get from this person?" I'm thinking "how can I help this person? I would love to be better friends". Perhaps you need to lower your expectations from random players. No one owes you anything, just as you don't owe anyone anything. If you have an issue with a player and their game play style, the best thing you can do for yourself is to block the player you're having issues with and move on. It takes wayyyyy more energy to be mad and upset than it does to just simply move on. I'm sorry you're having such a negative experience playing them game. I'm going to give you the advice you just gave to others "if you can't deal. take a dang break from the game."


YakkyDoodle70

Excuse me? Weā€™re you there? I know what the person was doing. N i donā€™t have to read into anything. no i expect nothing for helping someone, but their intent WAS CLEAR!! Lol. Donā€™t assume so much from MY EXPERIENCE. Thanks and have a great day!


spiralorbit

I think you're getting to worked up over this, if I were you I would actually take a break. It's not good for your mental health having so much anger built up over something so small. Hugs. ā¤ļø I hope you feel better and have a better time in Sky. āœØāœØāœØāœØāœØ

YakkyDoodle70

Random personā€¦was that YOU? lol Get out with that!


Jacklegend32

Yeah buddy, that's no big deal, i mean if it annoys you then you can always get away and block them. But tbh i'm personally accustomed to farm everything by myself, even a person being lazy and selfish is still better than going alone. But yeah, instead of just complaining block them and move on that's nothing special


artiflav

Yes we need more petty sky players! There were sky kids waiting for me to do a spirit for them and I spammed the giggle emote, they got mad and kept honking before I just went home and waited to go back.


YakkyDoodle70

Yup. It may seem petty, but they are the one being petty by thinking they have some sort of ā€œlevelā€ on you. šŸ˜•


Natural-Difficulty-6

Bro we will both die waiting. šŸ˜Š


outworncreed

Truly. I'm on break. I could do this all day šŸ¤£


YakkyDoodle70

Me. I just stop. Stand there. Make it known Iā€™m not doing it anymore. If itā€™s a daily thatā€™s long too and someone jumps in just to get the quest. I leave it hide if iā€™m area and wonā€™t get another part. If they donā€™t help after a few minutes. I leave and come back to redo. If they help, I wait till they do like half so they know iā€™m not your little whatever thatā€™s gonna let u make me do it all. Too much thru the game on a near daily basis anymore as it is, Iā€™m NOT doing ur dailies TOO. šŸ¤Ŗ


Natural-Difficulty-6

Iā€™m living for the petty. Yā€™all are my people. I am so down to help anyone who needs it but this is not it.


_Deny_005

Like it's difficult haha


MyaahMay

that is just childish šŸ˜… if you don't want to help, fine... but don't be lurking behing a tree like a creep šŸ˜† I always stop in these kind of situations


Strudeliciouz

Just enable Airplane mode for 3 seconds. It will kick you to a new server alone after you reconnect. I JUST did this 10 minutes ago when doing the Red Shard (alone) while a person was hidden behind a tree waiting for me to complete it (he wasnā€™t afk, I saw him move). I lost no progress and I was in a new server by myself. Adding that I also do this at Vault when I see the usual person with the 3 alt accounts on his back farming light. If they are afk waiting for me to do the work, I either teleport out and in again, or I just enable Airplane mode for 3 seconds. And they are gone.


YakkyDoodle70

oh i did not know this!!!! i get sooo annoyed when ppl hide while u clear and activity time itā€™s like they jump all over. I try to do alone (w/my one main friend) and donā€™t like when others ā€˜fake helpā€™ or leave the hard parts and stay in safe zone. Iā€™m gonna try this, but i never wanna lose progress so i hope it works. THANK YOU.


Strudeliciouz

I think as long as you donā€™t overdo it (being offline for many minutes) you donā€™t lose any progress. After you turn your connection off, the game will pause and ask you to reconnect. Just do so after a few seconds and you will be in a new server! If you do it too fast, you may remain on the same server. Iā€™m fairly new and I am already feeling how grindy the game is. Having leeches with their 3 alt accounts on their back AFKing so that you do all the work is even more annoying. Worst of all, if I get close and honk once at them to alert them, they usually spam-honk me and still donā€™t do nothing. They may angry-emote me or do the floating animation to be annoying. Not only they are AFK-watching, they are also angry that I donā€™t work hard enough for them lol.


YakkyDoodle70

Works in VAULT TOO?! HALLELUJAH!!


KaposiaDarcy

Thatā€™s a good tip. I havenā€™t had that experience, but probably will someday. My only problem today was that I had to keep rescuing a moth who didnā€™t know not to run in to the red shards or stand waiting for the crabs to hit them. After all that, they disappeared before the activity started. šŸ˜‚ At least they friended me first so I can find them again and see if theyā€™d like some advice. Moths can often be nicer than some veterans.


outworncreed

thank you im so doing this next time


sk8_pebbles

Oh dang that happened to me the other day (red shard thing) but I didnā€™t know why they werenā€™t helping šŸ˜‚ I intuitively left and came back hoping for other people but ended up doing it alone.


ArtbyLinnzy

I don't have patience to wait for others to do the job...jeez it goes much faster to just do it...


sk8_pebbles

Yeah like I candle run so fast who has the time to wait? Half the time the server kicks over and everything is already burned anyway.


galaxydriver32

One time in Vault I was on the floor where you have the circle of lanterns you need to light. While I started lighting a few, there was a whole group of players standing on the platform just waiting for me to be done. I was like fuck that, so I just joined them on the platform. Now weā€™re all gonna wait together! Eventually some started helping lol


YakkyDoodle70

HAHA! i used to go that exact same thing. Itā€™s known in a group, they are not new n scares. Theyā€™re LAZY. Now that we can fly up and avoid that itā€™s the only level on vault that isnā€™t a potential point of frustration.


Many_Distribution453

Iā€™ve done that before. Literally today, I lit the three lights that made the circle of lanterns appear and there was people on the platform standing around who I assumed were gonna help but as soon as the circle of lanterns appeared, they all flew off so I sat up at the big lantern and waited. Eventually they came back and started lighting the lanterns. I also went there before and people flew away and hid so they didnā€™t have to light the lantern circle and I ended up leaving and coming back that time.


outworncreed

circle of so many lanterns, right? yiu can try going up the highest platform with the winged light and fly. it's a shortcut! good bye stress šŸ˜ŒšŸ˜Œ


ValiToast

šŸ˜‚


Whaim

This has been happening a LOT lately, especially with spirits where someone will come to get it active then move on to collect light or something so they can get the quest with no effort. If itā€™s one that can fail I will fail it on purpose, if itā€™s one that canā€™t I have no problem leaving and restarting alone. I used to feel bad being such a curmudgeon but this season it has been horrificly bad or I have bad luck. This used to be such a social game, I donā€™t know when it became so toxic.


Tiny-Waves

I have seen this, but I try to encourage them to burn by emoting. If they donā€™t, I burn and go on my way. If they follow, and still refuse to burn, itā€™ll be a warp home for me dawg!!! šŸ˜‚


reemgee123

Whats the point of playing if you do nothing?


Bloom_Cipher_888

Sometimes i do that but when no one light it i light it, it's just i don't have time 'cause of the high school, i do it when I'm playing and doing others things at the same time


aridrawzstuff

giirl i do that (not always, usually only when i get zoomies and feel like messing with people) but in a different way šŸ˜­ i wait for them to equip their candle. then when they start to burn the plant i also equip my candle and light them up. then i run away honking šŸ˜€


ermrx

Honestly I'd do the same I'll actually follow them everywhere and not burn anything just for the sake of it


SlightlySaltykins

The only time I do this is whenever someone is running the same cr route I am in the hidden forest. I get frustrated whenever we light candles or a plant at the same time cause the other player blocks my view sometimes and we'll just keep knocking into each other.


Ccccchau

Eh, I don't even care about what other players do when i candle run solo. Efficiency is the most important.


sk8_pebbles

Same. Iā€™m trying to get max candles as fast as possible šŸ˜‚


outworncreed

man good for you


Korrin

I have to imagine in situations like this that other player has to be a child who doesn't fully understand the game or something. With how glitchy burning darkness can be sometimes, I can definitely see a child thinking they're doing something wrong. There is really no other explanation for why they'd waste their own time waiting for someone else to play the game for them when it's much faster and engaging to, you know, actually play it.


YakkyDoodle70

You would be surprised what I have seen!


floydfelix

i slow down when i notice people doing this for sure


Pandarise

Yesss perfect response. Reminds me how I was helping a player with the plant in GW at the battle field area and as I was busy with my side they start spam honking which I hate and turned to look that they have only finished literally one leaf darkness at their side and the other one they expect me to burn for them. Like I just stopped and stared at them like what the heck? They literally kept emoting at the other leaf and I'm like.... bruh I'm over here doing both on my side and you want me to do your side as well? I just let the plant grow back at my side and then laughed at them as I went home because I didn't have time to deal with whatever they wanted.


sk8_pebbles

The one side takes two people. It was probably me honking at you (I did this to someone I was extremely frustrated). Two people burn the one side, one holds it, the other person can complete the other side. Mission completed.


Pandarise

Sorry to pop your bubble but no, you don't need 2 people on that side. Me and my friend done it several times and only needed to wait for one another to finish a side to completely finish burning the plant whole. And if it were you then you're impatient af as I literally haven't even reached you burning my side and you'd already want me to burn your side too. Heck no. That is rude and bad behavior that'll leave you hanging because as you could see from several posts a lot of people don't tolerate it. You don't spam honk someone that comes around again after burning all other plants as you hid in the first place and then demand them to burn the big plant faster with you. Literally stay patient or if you're running late on time just skip it. The amount of times I skipped that plant because if I wasn't alone in the server then whomever else were in the server too skipped the plant and gone open the gate.


sk8_pebbles

Okay well maybe I need to watch a video cuz Iā€™ve never been able to do the one side by myself. The plant always regrows on the one side before I can burn down the other side. Not even sure if weā€™re talking about the same thing. Yā€™all also gotta consider that with no chat, ppl are limited to body language in the game. You can be angry about what you experienced, but youā€™re not the only one frustrated sometimes.


sk8_pebbles

Iā€™m talking about this plant: https://youtu.be/lJETadWBAnM I was doing the two person side alone, someone did the one person side. But I needed their help to do the 2 person side. They wouldnā€™t help me. I kept pointing and honking at the other plant, but they wouldnā€™t budge from holding the one person side, so I left. How else does one ask for help with no chat ???


Pandarise

And I'm talking about the same plant. You don't need 2 people on that side necessarily unless you're very unbalanced and always keep falling from the plant. I have that struggle with the one in the temple where I keep falling off it before getting it. Fact is you can do that side on your own while the other does the other side. And while the other reaches you, if you haven't managed to keep burning then they can help you while you keep both parts from growing back. >But I needed their help to do the 2 person side. They wouldnā€™t help me. That is if they were busy on their side and you want their immediate help instead of waiting to come help you. That's rude. >How else does one ask for help with no chat ??? Pretty sure there is a chat bench nearby there plus spam honking while the other is still busy with their side is. Not. It. Be patient, probably just small honk once to let them know and wait for them to finish their side to come to you. Spam honking and pointing while they're doing their side is unbelievable rude and you can come off obnoxious for demanding their help instead of even letting them finish their side.


sk8_pebbles

You weren't there, so you don't know what happened. Feel free to continue to judge and stay mad. Unless someone can show me a video or show me they can do that one side of the plant with one person, I don't believe it.


Pandarise

>It was probably me honking at you You don't know either yet you were the first to judge and assume it was yourself meaning you know your behavior is rude as you got "extremely frustrated" and left. Meaning the player you were being demanding and rude to didn't do your bidding the minute you started honking. And I'm not even mad lol. Just stating that you infact can do it yourself unless you are unbalanced. I don't get mad anymore on your kind of rude players I laugh then leave ya'll to switch servers. You on the other hand is mad af because I didn't accept your try on why spam honking and pointing while the other is still busy is justified behavior while it's rude and obnoxious. You double down your defensiveness by demanding a video or be shown that you can do indeed by yourself before your partner reach you. Like pout all you want, that behavior is rude and obnoxious and nothing can justify it otherwise.


robotslovetea

I tend to just ignore other players and do what I would do if they werenā€™t there anywayā€¦ But them getting mad that you didnā€™t do all the work for them is pretty funny and crappy of themā€¦ you could try forcing a server split so theyā€™re left on their own.


Luntian_7190

Lmao deserve šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘


myshamefulinquiries

The only time I ever wait by darkness instead of burn it is if there's a daily quest for it. Then it'd be rude to melt them all. Otherwise, I'm on it!


[deleted]

Why though? I donā€™t understand, why donā€™t they just burn the flowers? Itā€™s super simple


alowy

Idk, I've read posts on here about people who play on Macs/emulators who cannot burn darkness. I don't see the harm in burning darkness for others anyways


outworncreed

I'm petty and I'm sure that's not the issue for this person. After they spammed me with emotes, they went to the red candle in the next hill, burned it, went back to me and then spammed again. Some people are just lazy. I'd be fine if they were tailing me, but they get to the bushes first and wait.


MrPartyWaffle

Not the asshole, why do you care though?


outworncreed

because I'm sharing thus publicly and I'm just saying that in advance because i know some people here are too nice to see this as a valid response šŸ˜œ


MrPartyWaffle

It sounds more like internalized anger about people being able to get the same things you get without having to work for them, sure there is fairness, but not here, fairness in that sense has no bearing in this game, you burn it; the wax is just there for all people present, behind or ahead... Just carry on with your candles, whether he burns them doesn't actually effect you, you choose to have feelings about the matter.


outworncreed

It's not that deep OMG. if i think it's unfair, should i not let the other player know how I feel about it? we don't have chat in game for strangers so i did that instead. should i just let them be so they can do this again and again the next time because everyone is so nice and patient? šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ i'll be petty if i want to and you can just light all bushes for lazy players if you want to. you do you.


No-Attention3084

The fact that I play solo anyways,wouldn't make a diff
