I've personally never been bothered by this sort of thing,but I can understand how it could annoy some people. I have had instances where mid pull a healer would just dip set without any warning. Now this is a rare case but VERY upsetting.

The problem is as peak turns into off-peak and people go to bed... what chance does a replacement tank have of getting 2+ hours XP in?

Seen it happen in KC a bunch of times, people log, you get replacements, then more people wanna log, and the newcomers get about 10 minutes before it disbands.

So 5 pages to say : Its nicer to be nice, sometimes nice people would like to be nice but they happen not to be for some reason. Also some people aren't nice, and that's not very nice.

Right?

OP was just sadface that other people operate on schedules that are not conducive to min/max their rate of pixel return. We aren't pissing in each others cereal, we are playing a fucking video game.

If you hate the fact that people have lives, which sometimes require them to cease pixel gathering, take a deep breath, log in your epic+fungi shaman alt and go steal a camp from a more appropriately leveled group in CoM like everyone else.

Fuck.

Pretty much this

It's 11pm on a week night, when 1 person leaves expect the group to collapse. Roll a solo class, go forumquesting or find another game to play if it upsets you so much. Trying to fill spots at these times usually leads to exactly what you are describing or an awkward trio left standing that can't get anyone to join.

A lot of times people are in the group at these points because they feel obligated to stay if they are an essential class, when one person leaves it sets off a chain reaction.

I'm surprised at how many people took offense to the OP.


If I had crying children to tend to, the last thing I would be doing is playing an EverQuest emulator. I would be busy raising my children...


It's understandable that sometimes people have to log off immediately, but try to at least notify your group before you depart.

Careful Robben, logic, common sense and courtesy are not allowed here.

If a group has been going on for hours and hours and it's late and people are tired. I'm not scared to be the first one to say "i'm out."

I don't think the problem is common courtesy but instead a matter of a 30 minute notice that earns the outrage of repliers.
