Yes, he clearly has more fart and "lol butt sex" jokes than his 50 year old peers.

So, is this the 4th time or the 5th you've "destroyed your rectum?" I lost track.

Something tells me that "anal penetration" is harder for you to kick than a meth addiction.
Running out of witty remarks? Finely realize your fail at life? Don't fuck up this time, from the looks of it your about to hit a midlife crisis. Take care.

That's exactly my point. The two or three guys powerleveling are playing a video game, same as anyone else. The sense of entitlement in this culture is getting really out of control.

I have a significant fan club. Unfortunately, they're all cowardly and illiterate mouth-breathers and not even interesting to insult.

Ironic yes, because one could argue the one being powerlvled sucks, therefore needing the powerlvl. Heh enough of this, some choose to skip the levelling for alts, or mains,their choice. I know I don't like grinding again and again and again... but then again people really should lvl up, and group, and enjoy the ride. Especially when you get the mad rush to hit 50 and then.... yeah.

THis thread sure got derailed though didn't it?

But really? Here's the "sense of entitlement". Your level 50 character that you worked so hard to make isn't spending his time doing something like camping a piece of loot or fine steel weapons to sell, which I can respect. He's being paid by some other character to take a fast track through the leveling process and blast through the levels instead of playing the game how it's meant to be played. Which is fine, except that this SINGLE person is getting in the way of SIX people who are actually trying to play the game as it's meant to be played, who maybe can't afford your power leveling services, who maybe would happily accept the PLee into their group (say they have five people instead of six), except he's gotta have it his way, he's gotta level as fast as possible.

You're putting the needs of one person over the needs of six, is where the "sense of entitlement" comes from, and you're doing it for what's essentially an exploit, bypassing the entire point of the game. And again, I have no problem with that in theory, but for fuck's sake, have the decency to do it somewhere or sometime that a ton of people aren't regularly trying to legitimately EXP, or share the camp with them, or PL everyone simultaneously - do ANYTHING other than just hog the entire fucking camp for a single lazy lowbie.

So the guy paying for powerleveling is a lazy exploiter, but the paupers who want it for free are playing the game how it's meant to be played.

Are you for real?

You're kind of missing the point. I don't demand free PLing; I just said that it's an option that's preferable to keeping the entire camp for a single person. I'd be just as fine (in fact, I'd be happier) with the PLer and the PLee just heading off to another area or zone. Yes, if six or seven people at once are being PLed then it's still not playing the game exactly how it's meant to be played, but it's not greedy as fuck, which is the actual point of this whole thread.

No, you, sir, are missing the point. The point is that if you get to a camp that you'd like and someone is already there, you can attempt to negotiate for the camp or you can wait your turn, just like everyone else. It doesn't matter if it's a solo farmer, a twinked duo, a group of brand new characters or an entire raid guild who decided it would be cool to lock down evil eye for weeks.

Wait your turn.
