Saw some guys playing a pickup game at the public park basketball courts. I asked if I could join and they said no. What jerks!!

Did you just compare a baby drowning to not getting a group invite from someone on a 16 year old emulated video game?

you come off as one entitled asshat. you would really ask the waitress to sit you with people you dont know in a restaurant instead of doing what 99 percent of normal fucking human beings would do and go the fuck someplace else? wow man, i dont even know what the fuck to say about that shit. that's like elite level lack of self awareness. the world is not about you, it never has been, never will be and you need to stop trying to insert yourself into other peoples lives whether they want you there or not.

Some of the replies here make me wonder...
Anyway, you could always try red. People there are almost always looking for more (but you'll get the occasional twink ganker in the hot leveling spots - cb, mm, hhk, com). But, pvp range is 4 levels so with a few hours in a good group, you can out of range them. | ||

OP - Forget P99 and past EQ experiences. It was good times and now it's time to move on.
Go play WoW. | ||

LOL... I literally have to laugh out loud reading some of these posts. The guys who were encouraging, understanding, and trying to help, you're what makes this game fun. The guys that attacked me because of this, you're the problem. Yes I compared not getting invited to a group with a baby drowning, because certain things are considered normal behavior.
I played basketball for years and the rule at the court (almost every court I've been to) is that you could play the game if there was a spot open, in fact if they were down a man, they were happy to have you. If both teams are full, then no, obviously you can't play. I've never been turned away for being too tall or too short. We turned one guy away because he fouled like crazy, but that's it. Being decent shouldn't be optional to most people, it should be natural. Early on people didn't hide their sociopathology behind a computer screen. In EQ and UO, there were way more decent people than asses, these days the asses are everywhere. They really do effect the quality of the game. On a high note, I did finally get in a group and the experience was slow, but it was fun and I finally dinged 24. I don't sit on my ass, I buff the tank with a fire shield and nuke when the mobs at 50%. I saved my group twice using my pet to tank adds, so it's not that I don't know how to play (or the other casters in my group the other night don't) it's just some people care more about themselves than their fellow man. | ||

My joking is terrible at best. Anyway, just push off the petty stuff people throw your way in game. It's extremely fun. Last effort is /ignore if you need it. Funny about people PLing and such. There are a couple idiots/children in game who I've /ignored and every now and then I will remind myself who is on that short list then do a /who all. I never see them on. It's a person who started an alt, decided to be a bitch and not play their alt anymore. And, that works for me. | |||

because a player vs player game where players cover each other one on one is exactly the same as a player vs environment situation where they dont need anyone else to accomplish their goal.....again, you have no inherent right to join anyones group. if someone turns you away you get over it like a normal person and go elsewhere.

dunno why this thread is bugging me so much but it is lol.
How do you know the people who turned you away werent saving the spot for a guildie or rl friend? i know my crew would turn you away if we knew one of our guys was due to log in soon. perhaps you didnt make a good impression on the guy that turned you away when you grouped with him the night before. i would almost bet thats a big part of it. if you were awesome he would be foolish to not group you. can you explain why you feel its another persons obligation to make sure you are enjoying your time in p99? | ||
