I grouped with 3 rogues last night: Stabbish, Roguette, and Akilla

If there's 1 hybrid in group im okay with that

2 hybrids in group? I contemplate what I am doing with my life.

3 I insta-disband.

SKs get turned down quite a bit, mainly because their XP penalty is the highest (most i've seen are Iksar/Troll). Bards usually don't get turned down, because they're unique.

We had 4 rogues ;)

Noted.

They should just remove the penalty now.

Oh the one that started with 'War' as well. He kept pulling from me.

I'll give you this, I bet rangers keep aggro better than a monk until 50.

Haha yes, I was in that group - good times. 4 rogues:
Stabbish
Roguette
Allisha
Warpsawn

I think fadetree is being facetious though - its a comment on min-maxing leading to masses of monks and other popular race/class combos swarming all of the popular zones in an attempt to fast track to the end-game (instead of enjoying a unique character and attempting some of the darker reaches of Norrath).

Im sometimes guilty of min-maxing (like with my rogue), but I also take a bit of pride in setting out with unique goals such as leveling entirely in dungeons, or forming groups for some of the empty zones.

Anyway, to comment in response to the OP: having leveled several hybrids over the years, Ive found that each character needs to develop a close-knit set of friends. Yes, guild helps and being a min-max class/race helps, but the most important aspect is getting along with folks that like to have you around and will join/send invites when it comes time to group up.

The flip side of that is that even at 1k+ people, most others online are interacting within their respective circles and inviting/joining their friends, leaving very little room for someone sitting LFG unless they are desperate. Sure, plenty of times being in the right place at the right time helps, but greatest advantage you have for getting groups is people knowing (and liking) you. So get online, reconnect with old acquaintances and dust that ranger off ;)

After avoiding grouping with various hybrids and expressing my distaste for them (well, I was a druid initially and it was really easy to get awesome xp without anyone else) I made a pally on blue recently.. after about 30ks worth of twinking a pally is quite a liveable class up to level 10 at least :)

I would say my newly invested hybrid alt was in part Stinkum's fault.
