The amount of standoffishness and arrogance you're displaying here is pretty much confirming every negative thing people are saying about you. You aren't one of the good guys and you really don't deserve to be treated with any kind of respect.

And I didn't roll a bard because of you. Ciscio has been my tunnel mule for over a year. I leveled him to 15 and got him a DE mask and some cool armor and he's just been sitting around unplayed ever since. A month or two ago on my wizard over the course of a week or two I was PL'd by a handful of bards, including you, Musique and Zanderr and when I saw that a friend of mine was playing a wizard I decided to bring him out of retirement and see if my computer was up to the task of doing some AE kites duo with her.

I only play him a few hours a week at most. I'm not on a fast track to 60, I'm not greedy about pulling mobs and usually leave when I see a lot of other bards or soloers/groups leveling in the zones I'm in so I don't see how that can be construed as "competing with the big boys." Any competition you're seeing is of your own design. It sounds to me like you see "lesser" bards than yourself as bad guys here. I defended you in the past, and I will continue to defend bards but as well intentioned as you are, your attitude is toxic.
While it sucks, because you are right about my attitude being toxic, this is the first post on this entire thread that has had ANY logical acuity or sound reasoning. Just wanted to point that out, even though it was negative about me you are right. My attitude has become toxic. It once wasn't toxic on Rojas, not so very long ago. This is what I foresaw happening because of the way people treat bards. Sadly by trying to avoid it happening, it actually sped it up. I suppose it is an inevitability on a server where the playerbase, while often filled with exceptional players//friends ,is now so deluded by the community of the now-present MMO gamer industry.

While not to be confrontational I don't view "lesser" bards as lesser in the first place, they may be more inexperienced that's fine. It's the ones who know they are fucking it up for people and refuse to change their methods.
