    I was perusing various FFXIV forums (official and reddit) and found this little bit. I'm not sure if the player was truly angry (well, probably very very frustrated at the least). But he seemed to roleplay out his rage.

    Some backstory to truly understand why the player is raging and who he is raging at...

    Khloe is a cute young child miqo'te (cat race) that sits outside in her stall in Idyllshire (a quest/vendor hub for level 58-70 players). Khloe is special as she gives you this book which includes 16 various tasks to undertake to earn a stamp. These stamps, are completely RNG as to what they become. Upon completion of a task, a stamp will appear in your book. The goal is to complete these tasks to get a stamp, to get a bingo line. Depending how on your lines go will depend on the prizes. These change weekly.

    The tasks are doing dungeons and raids of varying difficulty and degree. For the most part, this is just a bonus incentive to do dungeons/raids. Yet for some, it can be an obsession if you are chasing after a very specific prize...

    Like a very specific "Achievement", for you who know/play Wow, not getting something due to RNG can be frustrating... but this guy makes it pretty colorful.

    -The RANT-

    You can imagine, that you're in the area, shopping for gear with your hard-earned and saved-up tomestones (token currency for dungeon/raid tier gear). Then you "hear" (i.e. see this in your chat window, as it is all done in /say).

    Sometimes you're lucky and sometimes not with RNG. Clearly wasn't that guy's day. One time when I was playing Destiny, I turned in 5 items which guaranteed getting exotic gear and getting the same armor pieces which weren't even my character's class.

    Sorry to necro this post, but this made my day. I felt like Khloe's stall today, but this made me laugh. Thanks for sharing.
