So why is that? Fact is that most of them don't bother doing research on the most basic things and we witness the following:

I could go on forever... you've all seen these players. Now here's the funnier part they end up 46+. Then we witness the following in raids.

(7 more examples)

So scrub player A hits 46+. The kind that never in a million years would make the cut in any self respecting raiding guild is now being humped by 8+ guilds. DA has shown the way. They are on top of the food chain because they were the first to mass invite half the server. Every other raiding guild joined the mass invite bandwagon afterwards.


Then these scrubs act all high and mighty. Kind of like 10 butt ugly chick getting constantly hit on by 80 + horny boys. It doesn't matter how ugly they are, apparently as long as you have boobs and a hole it's all good (sorry for the terribly crude analogy).

So yes, it may not look like much but it does take skill to play this game. It's sad when the so called top end raiding guilds all have to go down on their knees to recruit the shittiest players the server has to offer. Seriously, I may no longer be killing dragons at this time but at least I don't have to put up with that anymore.

On a side note, I have NOTHING against casual gamers. We all have different ways to enjoy EQ. My way of fun may not be yours. That being said, don't @#$@$@# apply to a top end raiding guild and call yourself a raider when you're not going to dedicate on becoming a better player. Past playing experience means nothing, so what you were a scrub in a former uber guild. I've witnessed new players who are already above average and end up being great at the game. It's all about how they approach the game. I just hate the posers who say all the right things but end up doing nothing. The worst are when those posers join a zerg guild and talk so much smack on the forums...

Shrug. My initial understanding was that you were directing this at people that weren't up your standard, you know, on raids.
