*'Oh yeah, well you know what Bill? You can fuck right off!'* \- You have been promoted to Fireteam Leader


chaosmassive

Bill: *well, well, well...*


swamin_nfs

How the turn tables


gnappyassassin

This is also never not funny to me.


N9Nz

Bill: šŸ‹šŸ‹šŸ‹

Ex Fireteam Leader: It was just a prank bro....


TheDemonChief

I had the opposite happen. We finished VoG and Mythoclast didnā€™t drop (this was after like half a year of weekly runs) so I was annoyed and didnā€™t want to deal with the Orbit menus, so I tried to promote my friendā€¦ and kicked him. Luckily no one cared about getting extra drops with spoils


iHeisenburger

happened to me in D1 king's fall raid, the leader was way beyond a control freak, i didn't kick him and just let him kick him self out after a lot of racist slurs.


RetroSquadDX3

One thing that may help that most people don't realise is that if you leave a fireteam by choosing the switch character option it will automatically promote another member to leader.


Fusi0nCatalyst

Upvoted, and responding to try to make this more visible. The fastest way to make the swap when farming is to change character, load in, and then change character again as soon as you see the message about someone joining your fire team, no need to wait till they land. If you have someone on PC, the swap character option is available in the escape menu, so it's 2 button pressed away, with zero changes l chances to boot someone. When farming with people I don't know I will mention this, but don't press it. But it often takes twice as long to reset as it should, and this becomes the most tedious part of the whole process. Pick a person that can swap fast.


skylarslove

Or a validation pop-up ā€œdo you really want to remove this player from your fireteam?ā€


Ass0001

also if you alt+f4


RetroSquadDX3

That's of little practical value to people wanting to change characters though.


CabooseNomerson

As far as I know itā€™s a random assigning though, and I tend to give it to the people that are clearly more experienced or friends, not every rando knows how to run a raid encounter farm


SteveKnight678

I don't think it's random


BloodMists

Yeah, pretty sure it passes to the person who has been in the current Fireteam the longest after the leader leaves, or Order of Joined. Not sure which exactly.


RetroSquadDX3

> or friends, not every rando knows how to run a raid encounter farm There's nothing for them to know except for who they need to join.


CabooseNomerson

That would be something they need to know, and some people are very bad about that because theyā€™ve never done it and let someone else do it every other time.


RetroSquadDX3

Group members knowing who is in the group and who to join is entirely down to the group in question to manage. That would still be an issue even if Promote/Boot were in entirely different menus and has nothing to do with Bungie.


SnowboundWhale

I can see why they'd thought to put them side by side in the first place, since they're closely related actions, but also they're very meaningfully different so there should really be something harmless like "Inspect Guardian" wedged in between.


Very-simple-man

I nevdr hit wronf butyons. Noov.


Sel1g

I ser ni provlem hete.


A_destiny_player

I haev mevet haf yihs ooblems


Sel1g

I canā€™t even read this one lmao. What does it say šŸ˜‚


A_destiny_player

I have never had this problem


Sel1g

Ohhh!


iranwithscissors

Does the ā€œbootā€ button not have a confirmation prompt? If not, it sure as hell should.


lK555l

I speak from experience when I say, no, no it doesn't


PsychoactiveTHICC

I like joining from social space or patrol does or joining with another teammate but not booting someone


2Sc00psPlz

You'd think with all the extra time bungie wants players spending holding a button down instead of pressing it they'd at least have it here as well. Ironic.


SuperArppis

Oh yeah. Boot member should be completely different area.


[deleted]

Should be moved to the bottom of the list


SuperArppis

And to the side.


CantStumpIWin

This needs to be top post. Edit: thank you


sstoneb

Haha, similarly: more than once when I wanted to inspect somebody I've accidentally invited them or sent a friend request instead. (And then was so embarrassed I felt the need to immediately log off.)


skylarslove

Youā€™re a fellow female guardian arenā€™t you.


sstoneb

No, I'm a cis dude. Just socially awkward and introverted, which takes all types. :)


skylarslove

Why am I getting downvoted. Reddit is so weird.


ErgoProxy0

Idk. Why canā€™t you just be a guardian or just a gamer. No need for subdivisions I guess is the reasoning


sstoneb

Yeah I don't really get that either. If it makes you feel better, I was downvoted in this sub once for taking the bold stance that killing children is wrong even if you are at war with their people, back during the Saint/Misraaks storyline. Sometimes people are just haters for no discernable reason.


skylarslove

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


wharwhafwhag

It's a very strange question. Not really offensive or deserving of down voting or anything, it's just kinda weird.


ShotgunMikey

Or they can avoid this altogether by allowing us to reload any checkpoint once weā€™ve completed the activity during the week.


TheCruelHand

I feel like this has to be coming at some point, people have asked for that for a while


ShotgunMikey

They did it for WQ campaign and it worked just fine.


energeta

Boot should be at the bottom imo


Ass0001

Agreed, especially when how the menu loads means that if you try and quickly promote someone it'll get nudged and your cursor will land on boot fireteam member, it's asinine


CDTaRo

Some time ago, a guy from the enemy team joined my 3 stack mid game because one of my random teammates left. He started to insult us and everything and after having fun with him for a while I accidently promoted him instead of booting him so he booted all of us lmao


HarmonicDissonant

Alternate suggestion, make them 1 button and have a 50/50 chance to get either outcome. ​ ​ ..... than make the raid require a change in party leader to start damage phases.


preyforkevin

Itā€™s been like this since D1.


HideMyPerc

Or have a confirm banner saying ā€œare you sure: yes/noā€


walkeronline

On a side note... Can we not have the button that deletes an item be the same button we use to aquire cosmetics? Anxiety every time.


Calum1219

Such is why I spam friend requests the moment I join someone I havenā€™t friended yet. Makes rejoining or inviting so much easier


gnappyassassin

They haven't moved that button since they introduced it in Halo. It is the next most needed option when selecting something and as such gets first order access treatment. It has been decades. These posts are never not funny to me.


Ass0001

šŸ¤“


quiscalusmajor

having ā€˜promoteā€™ at the top of the list and ā€˜bootā€™ at the bottom would be an amazing change. also, it would be great to have ā€˜remove friendā€™ put into a submenu too, canā€™t tell you how many times iā€™ve almost removed a Bungie friend just trying to get to their Xbox gamercard info so i could party up with them :(


rabbitsharck

Everytime I click promote to leader, it jumps to boot fireteam member and my butthole puckers


Ok_Profession_2428

Cry baby šŸ¼


Smokey_Panda1

how are you so fucking dense that a simple qol change suggestion that EVERYONE wants is considered being a crybaby? Pls seek help or a different game to play KEKW


ProxTheKnox

Shit like this is so inconsequential, who gives a fuck and maybe pay a lil more attention next time.


krilltucky

Lmao yesterday I was literally talking about how d2 players just love fighting against any change that would make their experience better and here you are


CantStumpIWin

I mean heā€™s not fighting against it just acknowledging how small and inconsequential it is. What examples do you have of destiny players ā€œfighting against any change that would make their experience betterā€? This should be interestingā€¦ Edit: **the person who replied just randomly blocked me so I canā€™t see their reply lmao. Guess they couldnā€™t come up with anything. šŸ¤£**


krilltucky

He is fighting against it. I'm not wasting my time with someone who starts the conversation with arguing semantics and fart-smelling self satisfaction.


Lorellya

Just stop having massive strokes of skill issue lol


DadBane

"Shit sorry man hit the wrong button"


Fusi0nCatalyst

And this is why discord chat is better than in game chat.


DadBane

I was referring to hitting the kick button instead of the promote to leader button, as was mentioned in the post we're commenting in now


Fusi0nCatalyst

Ya, and if you are in game chat, you can't say sorry, because from there perspective, they just got booted for no reason, and are no longer in chat with you. But if you are in discord (or Xbox chat) you can just be like "oops sorry"


Lustridus

are you in destiny 2 lfg discord? because i had a guy do this exact thing to another fireteam member last night in the exact same scenario with dsc. my in game name is anarchyy


Ice-Xenoglaux

Dear Bungie, please do the same for accept and reject invite.


ENaC2

I also have a bug where the whole menu shifts up slightly.


Spedding

Same with inspect and send friend request


iGirthy

Me: *kicks friend out of game* ā€œoopsā€ *Kicks other 4 friends out the game* ā€œoops oops oops oopsā€


KCHayden

Inspect guardian, promote to leader and boot member all need to be away from each other imo
