I thought players were supposed to play what they wanted to play...

The only assholes are the ones that expect others to adhere to their view of how the game should be played. If I don't want to group with hybrids I don't have to. If you do that's fine you can do whatever you want but don't give me shit for not playing like you think I should. You won't catch me giving you shit for playing how you want to play. Who's the asshole here?

"How one thinks the game should be played" has nothing to do with it. If you're in a game where the only thing keeping someone from playing for an ~hour stretch of sitting on their ass bored is that you want a tiny bit of experience, you're selfish aka an asshole.


And don't give me the "They're not mean, they just derive fun from efficiency!" bullshit. No. Everyone wants to be efficient. They probably won't leave the group for a better class to replace themselves for the sole purpose of it making the group more efficient. The derive fun from efficiency for their own self-interest, often at the expense of others given the scarcity and often unsoloable nature of the game. They'd rather see someone unable to play than sacrifice a tiny bit of experience, that's what makes them an asshole, but you can call that a "play style" if you'd like.

This is one thing I find fascinating.

People will still pay the flat 2k when they are with 2 SKs, 2 Bards, Wizard and themself...

As a wizard, I've had this said to me several times before.
