-People who leave a group for another group without telling anyone (especially when things are going really well)

-People who get rude with you when you ask for a price check on an item, they tell you to offer a price, and then proceed to get rude and hostile at what you offer (not knowing how much something is worth)

-When people hunt the newb guards that low levels need in case of emergencies (it doesn't bother me if they turn into the guards and help derail newbie trains, then I have no problem with that) Just when they kill guards, yet watch newbs die to trains and do nothing about it.

-Ogres blocking the bank (not really, just something that was kinda funny/irritating in my newbie days when I couldnt get to the banker due to an AFK ogre sitting in the way)

Sometimes the pace of the game and it's unforgivingness can get to me when things ain't going my way. My patience just has shrunk, I wonder if it's been WoW and the likes.

I agree with you on this one. I feel like I already know what to expect, what to camp, what to see. There are no surprises left like the feeling you got when Kunark and Velious were first released. I feel like Chris Columbus in 2010.

People in your group who loot every single mob and don't even have autosplit on. I'm not a twink and have barely enough plat to buy a few of my spells come spell levels. Every bit helps.

When you ask for some buffs from higher levels and they say no. Seriously? Your standing there doing nothing but selling stuff in EC. If a lower asks for a SoW or DS, just give it to them.

What irks me is when I am happily soloing in my zone of choice and certain type of lower level player walks up and asks for buffs. They might want haste, clarity, or both. This particular person is level 10-20, wearing an fbss, full set armor, two yaks....maybe an SMR and gebs if they're a caster. They ask in the following way:

"Haste!!!!" =) or "CLARITY~"

I am not one of your guild chanters. I'm not your buddy who you used to play with on live. I am, thirdly, not a buff machine stationed in zones to provide buffage to lower level toons, on demand, without even an offer of a donation whilst wearing their 25k in twink gear.

I love the level 8's in EC, who walk up untwinked and offer a plat for clarity, after asking respectfully. I turn it down, hit em with buffs, and send them on their way.

Bottom line: Treat higher level buffers with respect and you'll likely get a lot further than if not.

Entitlement irks me. I am not your buff bot.

Haha, same thing happens to me. Sometimes I get a little nervous pulling, so I gotta go. I usually just bring the laptop with me though.
