Maybe it's the alcohol?

People should say when they are going afk, it's a very simple courtesy. SO I don't completely disagree with your post.

Personally I just would have just asked him to please announce afk's in the future, and left it at that, refusing to group with him again seems to be a bit much.

Also if you're already drinking and somebody starts bragging about their fake elf that exists on a drive somewhere, just inform people that you're too drunk to do shots every time that they mention their main.
Or let them know that you're in a relationship and can't drive to their house to blow them whenever they mention their pixels and please just stop, it's making your heart ache terribly but the world that you want and the world that you live in can often be two very different places.

People playing Everquest usually have one thing in common, they play Everquest. Talking about your other characters or the stuff you have is the EQ equivalent of a normal human conversation. Like my kid just started second grade, or my husband and I bought jacuzzi. But I don't have a kid, husband, or jacuzzi so maybe I'll talk about my elves.

True. But it also can have different effects depending on HOW you talk about such things. Most people on P99 can manage to handle a little braggadocio when it comes to their "mains' or gears they got on alts... It's how someone talks about their pixels though, that can rub others the wrong way.

Then again, this guy seems angry at the world and probably viewed harmless light conversation about pixels as the other guy being an obnoxious, self-entitled dickhead who should never be grouped with again. Who knows.

Your analogy falls short. It's not that talking about EQ in EQ is like talking about buying a jacuzzi with normal adults, it's that talking about your awesome gear and main in a group of lowbie newbs is like bragging about your new jacuzzi while you're dishing out food at the local soup kitchen. It's unnecessary and makes you a dick.

Woke post. I refer my fellow-elves to this thread on the collapse of Ways of Yore, a progression guild which suffered an officer revolt and collapse after a player was booted for allegedly bringing talk outside of the boundaries defined above into guild chat. Still looking for answers.
