Rude Players

[dareo]

so 6 troll SKs grouping together would split a kill 6 ways and lose 60% to penalty? That would be pretty slow!

Keep your head up OP. They were probably from the original Green server as folks like that were few and far between on Teal.

I don't get where this whole Green players were more toxic than Teal players fallacy came from. I barely ran into anyone toxic on Green post-merge. I don't think either had a material difference of more or less toxic players.

If anything, I've seen an increased amount of toxicity on the server post-merge (although not significantly so)...which technically could lead me to argue that Teal players must be the more toxic group.

However, what it really is is that now there's simply more people and more competition than there was before. That results in some people, who might have not been toxic with the lower pop, becoming a bit more toxic than they would otherwise be. It's not this whole one server's pop was more toxic than the other fallacy that you push lol.

Duoing popular camps and turning away everyone who asks to join is anti-social, but being the guy who asks to join a duo that is obviously able to hold down a camp by themselves is counterproductive. Sometimes you just need to move on to a different area or log out. That's the nature of classic EQ.

There is not typical person or personality type here. If people are rude to you or weird, do what you do in real life and move on.

This is a human problem.

Play red server to help deal with rude players.

Also teal and green are same people. Please don't divide green into "we used to be teal team" guys and "we are always green guys"

Pixel rot is a real disease, just try to avoid people with it and you will be ok.

Today i met two extremly rude players who instead of having a simple convo decided to name call and ridicule me for being new to the game.

Orge Death Knight Named Draekkon
High Elf Cleric Ephus

I travelled from Qeynos to group in Faydark to gain exp and faction in that area.
Upon arriving i asked if i could join a group.
In Response they told me that there is a waiting list.
Mind you they are in a group of only two people.
That being said there was also no one in sight of the area who would be the 1st in Line.

when i told them i was confused as to why i could not join they proceeded with name calling, telling to get a life and move on. I was not in anyway rude to them at any point during this whole conversation.

It is hard for me to see the Play nice and treat people with respect aspect that this project 1999 is proclaiming on the surface. Is this something i have to expect from participating in this Project from hence forth.

I am brand new to this Eq title and i am just looking for a good gaming experience.

If anyone else runs into these two players please beware!

As a new player you should know that people are always going to opt for a competent duo rather than a full group. At the very least most groups will opt to keep the numbers down to as few as possible, to keep the camp locked down and the xp cut minimal. If those people could have solo'd the camp they probably would have. The reason being is that the XP bonus for a full group does little to compensate for the fact that you're splitting the XP six ways. It's a fact of life for EQ, so I suggest next time it happens move on.

The waiting list was probably for the camp itself, assuming there were no other people en route or what have you. They had the in check as a duo, other people wanted to join, or wanted the camp in general so they probably told the people that msg'd them they could have the camp,f or group, solo or duo purposes, when they were done with it.

Furthermore I fail to see how does name dropping lead to a better understanding of the game. Surely their actions were childish and rude but your reaction also comes off as a bit immature. It's a game. Move on and get over it.

Is it just me or does this have Troll written all over it?
