It's the same argument for chardok aoe. Why in the world would anyone legitimately be in that zone to group xp? Chardok aoe is the best exp in the game and made that zone's mob population relevant. There are zones that are good for certain things and classes that have certain niches. Let's let skilled players do their thing. It's a perfect match.

Explore, get some loot for themselves, chill out, whatever they want really.

Personally have no problem with Chardok AE or Bard swarming, to each his own, but the moment these impact other people in any way shape or form, these (AE and Swarming) are the ones who need to give way, no matter the reason, since they are the ones creating the issue in the first place.
If it can be worked out by simple dialog, then fine, but if it can't, Swarm or Chardok AE need to gtfo or get petitioned. Easy.

dont care about chardok or bard aoe, but stop with the bullshit

chardok is like 1 of maybe 3 55-60 groupable dungeons in game right now, and same zem as seb and hs, dont be fucking stupids and say why would anyone xp there

When AE isn't happening the zone is still empty. Before AE started zone was empty.

Don't see how that statement is 'stupid'. Calling it stupid is actually pretty stupid.

perhaps people dont group there because the culture has changed? i grouped there on p99 back before it became popular to aoe there, i think maybe when sf aoe was a thing

i grouped there back in classic, and groups happen there on red all the time

perhaps you havent been here long enough, seen enough, or are just stupid yourself, not sure

There have been several occasions on p99 where chardok AoE wasn't possible. Once or twice because pathing code was changed. Once or twice because resist code was changed. On all of these occasions there was still no normal groups in chardok. So I am not sure what you're talking about.

Pretty sure that doesn't mean I am stupid. Likely means you are though. That or you're just completely clueless.

I don't know why people say OT is terrible. Sure exp there is far from good, but consider the following:

Many higher level players have OT hammers, thus there's constant influx of them. It lets new wizards and druids make cash selling ports. It's a great place to quad and do animal charm exp. You will often have high level clerics rezzing for free or some small fee.

I have leveled my druid there 34-45 quickly, made decent cash selling ports, and I nearly always had c1/c2. When I died there usually was a rez.
Now good luck getting a PuG for a place like Sol A, especially if you play not-so-wanted class.

As for bards I surely never seen them pull entire zones on live. Just never happened. However I'm fine with them as long as they don't play like an asshole.

You take that rational & sensible commentary the right the fucking hell out of RnF and don't you dare ever bring it back! Damn kids these days...

[Ezalor]

if you insist on bad XP you can still quad or animal charm in OT since bards don't pull rhinos etc

Lol... Will these threads ever stop? Half the server is outta control these days with the bard hate. I have literally zoned into places un-anon before and instantly been petitioned...by people I have never met, know nothing about me, what I am doing there, if I am even a powerleveler, etc... FFS people, have a little common courtesy to at least shoot these bards a tell or something before you just petition them.

If they are going to cap bards swarms, its whatev. First try making it so players accounts only get 1 petition per month so they are forced to actually speak to people first instead of just being a d-bag though. Granted there are gonna be some bards who are just chumps, but most aren't and will work something out. Also, give the bard at LEAST 5-10min to respond. If you are pissed they took "to many mobs" and wanna try to come to an agreement, give them a minute to respond because they generally can't type in the middle of a swarm.

I'm glad people are petitioning you, you sound like an entitled douche.
