You're first on the list!

So I'm waiting to join a highkeep group after being told I'm first on the list to replace whoever leaves. Decided to just chill there while I alt tabbed and did a few things, without actually committing to anything major in case a spot freed up.

90 minutes later a spot frees up, and some other bard comes in and takes the spot. I'm a bit annoyed but not too worried, must just be some mistake. But when I ask the party leader I get "RL friend come before a list you know?". The fuck?

Anyway so if "RL friend come before a list" means "don't bother telling anyone on a list that theyre actually not next in line", then I pretty much wont bother with that shit any more, cos what a waste of time.

We are reliving 1999 that is how it worked then and how it works now.

With that said I do not condone the action but realize that is just how things are.

The group/person in the camp is allowed to manage it however the hell they want to.

Yeah it can kind of suck at times. You just have to remember the "list" is your next if someone else I want more doesnt show up.

This also happens in solo camps. Sure your on the "list", however when they ask in guild if anyone wants the camp before they leave you better hope no one speaks up, or that their friend didnt just log on.

LOL thats BS. Well you are not speaking for me, if my RL friend decided to join, he is going to be the list too.

Tell someone to wait 90 mins and screwed him over is not on my play-book.

I dont do lists honestly, whenever someone asks if they can have the next spot/camp after me I say "we will see, ill keep your name in mind". This lets them know their spot is not a 100% thing.

and about the HHK being a bring your own group kind of thing...

The few times I have been there a group is ALWAYS there, and almost never has to look long to refill a spot.

lol @ HK goblin groups having a high turnover on group members, there's plenty of better camps/zones for that level bracket if you want a high turnover and likelihood of finding a spot in a group.

I never said it was a high turnover, I just said there is almost always a group in the basement, and the few times that i see them shout that they need another the spot gets filled pretty quick.

I think I remember back on live that camp was broken up into at least 2 or 3 camps. Now it's only fit for one?

Well on the Tribunal it was most certainly like this.
