So I can just make a toon and get to the minimum level, not participate in any way shape or form of camping the mobs that drop the item, and still get loot rights simply because I'm in level range and not afk...

Game on.

Guide did not that. He should have been booted the ranger of the list.

I love how having to help a stranger (while you're literally doing nothing but waiting in a line) is like the worst thing ever in this thread.

Right? And all these "don't come unless you can solo it, or bring your own group" twats. Group up with the people in line and don't be dickbags.

Purposely killing people ahead of you on the list because you feel more entitled to the item even though they have been there longer is the scummiest thing to do. These camps are all group content, so just group up with the other people who are listing!

helping and carrying are two totally different things.

I think most rationale people prefer helping others to be feel like more of a choice. What the Ranger in the OP's story did was not ask kindly for assistance, but cuckold some strangers into doing the work for them. And if anyone still thinks that's okay, PM me so I can offload all my bullshit menial tasks onto your plate since you seem to think that's acceptable behavior from a stranger.

What's the fun in the game if you're going to force everyone to behave just like you? There's no more social aspect or unpredictability. You guys have been pushing for this just a bunch of pals sitting around the loot conveyor just waiting for your pixel to be handed to you. No competition at all. No incentive to use the social aspect of the game to adapt and overcome. Just sit in line like a good boy and wait for your piece of the pie. Sounded terrible a decade ago when you mom and pop guilds were pushing for this shit on blue, still sounds terrible today.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

After GM shows up and leaves after making some generic statements #3 asks:
"Hey, if you need help why not just ask for it instead of petitioning?"

No response.

#3 and #4 are boggled.

I thought the brain-dead druggies were on Red, or maybe Green, but now Teal?
The PvE crowd in my experience was infinitely more toxic and bad at the game.

People just say red was cuz they died a lot and resorted to that as an attack in spite and their "real reason" to leave.

A 60pp spy glass also performs the GCD feature, so its odd to wait for such a camp.
