Made me think of:

Don't ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where you've been, ever, for any reason whatsoever." - Michael Scott

When playing a lower level character it's always nice to get some help, but occasionally it can be irritating to have someone barge into your place and impose their idea of aid upon you.

Some people just don't know how to politely ask someone to leave.

Is it Yanny or Laurel?

What I like to do is go to Oasis and agro a hill giant, invis myself, and then run to the croc group and giggle as they all panic at a hill giant charging their camp with them not being able to see me. I will then engage the giant and FD when it starts to run so they can XP off it and get some fat Hill Giant loots.

I stand in awe of your greatness in being able to bring a Hill Giant all the way to Oasis as my puny understanding of mechanics in this game always made me think that mobs could not pass through zone lines, but you have turned the possible into a reality so I applaud you sir and I fully intend to bring some wurms from Great Divide to the commonlands tonight and have some fun and after that I am going to run through Permafrost and bring an army of ice goblins into guk and turn them loose on the frogs this is going to be awesome thanks

This is one of the best post replies I have seen in a long time, and I don't think anyone recognized its greatness.

Gotta chime in here.

OP: You did nothing wrong.

I am ALWAYS eternally grateful for people like you that step in and try to help. I always feel blessed and lucky when they do. I have NEVER been in a group that the other group members did NOT feel the same as I. If there was an EXP prob, the group shoulda just said something. Coulda been as easy as, "Hey, something is amiss as we aren't getting the exp now." Both the group and the OP could have both worked it out. Even if the group wanted no help, they coulda told the OP very nicely, as in "Hey, appreciate the help, but we are trying to do this solo as a group to work out some strategies." or "Hey, thanx for the pulls but we need our puller to get some practice in." or whatever.

PLEASE don't stop trying to help people. This game is grindy enough to start without having the feeling that, "I'm not gonna help anymore because of so-and-so reasons." I'da done a dance of joy if a high level cleric such as yourself came to help me solo, or grouped. Some people simply cannot understand a kind and generous deed when they see one. I actually have a written list of all the players that have helped me since I started this game a couple of months ago. Every cleric that took the time to come rez me, every druid that came to port me, (Free of charge, I might add, and more than one from DaP!) Every time someone went out of their way to help me, with absolutely no reason to, or personal gain for themselves. Every person that ever gave me a piece of gear I could use. (Sorry, gotta include a personal shout out to Hond, the ERU Necromancer, that gifted me a CoS and Green Silken Drape on my very first night in the game. I am eternally grateful, and I would drop everything in a heartbeat to help Hond at anytime. He may have lost some gear, but gained a fiercely loyal friend.) THAT, to me, is the real true spirit of P99. That's the way it USED to be, in the original game back then. (I know, cause I was there.) So my "list" I track, is people I owe a solid to, and I keep it by the comp at all times. When I get a tell from one on my list, if I am not grouped, I DROP what I am doing, and I go help them, in any way that I can. I still keep that list. It is to me, the list of the players that make this game as great as it is. But I do not blame you in the least for refusing to rez.

That being said.....

Had that been me as the OP, after I got the tell asking for a rez, I absolutely would have gone back to rez. And afterwards, after they were all buffed and healed, I would have told them.....

"OK, you are all good to go. I'm gonna go ahead and fuck off now, like you asked me to before when I was trying to help you all. Good luck!" [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
