I'm surprised at how many people took offense to the OP.


If I had crying children to tend to, the last thing I would be doing is playing an EverQuest emulator. I would be busy raising my children...


It's understandable that sometimes people have to log off immediately, but try to at least notify your group before you depart.


Saying he has "no life" because he expects the tank to give a heads up :rolleyes:

you dont have to worry about being 'that guy'. you just don't want to be OP. if people want to be pissy over this, then who cares if they won't invite you to their group?

honestly, many times ive grouped up with people and had to go suddenly for whatever reason. 99% of people were understanding and respectful. The 1% can continue to fuck themselves in their basement.

Who needs a tank for CoM? Did you have a ranger, a monk, a bard, a person with snare, or a person with root? Sounds like all you really did was lose one xp sponge. Congrats.

which reinforces that OP is being unreasonable. whether he is playing an elf simulator or building a pergola in the garage is irrelevant.

Oh so if you have a child you're never allowed to do anything else? Are you some kind of fucking retard?

The main point that people used with a child is it was a sleep and woke up crying...aka needing tending.

agree with xp sponges. i have had far better experiences with 3 to 4 person groups in CoM.

most players seem to think that you need a tank for a group. I disagree...you really don't. almost everyone has abilities to supplement a tank...especially in CoM where NOTHING casts spells. look at post #3 by Daldaen, which is a perfect example of someone using more than one spell bar depending on what the group needs.. instead of sitting there being an xp sponge.

I agree. I hate it when someone leaves my group at 2am without giving 30 minutes notice. Then I have to spend another 45 minutes finding someone only to grind out another mere 4 hours of xp. It's just a waste of time.

To be fair, our society really has not accepted that when you have a kid your life is fucking over and it has caused a lot of problems, but computer games are one area where people don't even realize they're being affected. Everybody focuses on people bringing kids into movie theaters and restaurants, but LEAVING EXP GROUPS is one that hits much closer to home for me due to I never leave the house to go to movie theaters and restaurants

I'm sensing some sarcasm brewing here.
