Treat others how you want to be treated. I'm not your mother. If you like people randomly leaving your groups by all means invite them again. I will pass. My goal here is to remind people that even though this is just a game, there are 4 other people depending on you to keep the group going, and a basic sense of communication goes a long ways. But as others have said ITT, decency is long gone for many.
Tank, the point you are missing here is that this passive aggressive rant on the forums is not going to bring about anything you are hoping for. Talk to these people in game, treat them as the "human being" you are asking them to treat you as. Do you not see how you are going against exactly what you preach? You are treating them as something less than your equal. If you act anything like this in game I am impressed that you have not experienced much worse.

Often times people truly do not understand and until someone is adult enough to convey these social norms to them...without telling them to go fuck themselves six ways from Sunday in the process. Chill, talk to them in game directly and with a tad bit more restraint. You may find this problem quickly disappears. If they do not, /ignore and the problem solves itself over time.

This thread got over 2,400 views so I disagree about it not having an effect. I'd say its much more effective than whispering each person randomly (who I may never see again) about courtesy while I am still in an Exp group. And if they don't "understand these social norms" they can group elsewhere. My /who all and friends list has plenty of other nice people I enjoy grouping with instead, and they don't need life lessons.

OP has '0' idea what forums he is on exactly. Lol, gotta love the p99 virgins that don't understand the server or the forums.
