I know I want to strengthen my relationships with a bunch of autistic racists in an elf quest.

I'm sure everyone on blue is totally cool & normal hence the thread.

Hey I was wondering if I could post about and talk about eugenics with some cool and normal not racist not autist blues in the blue OT thread.

Oh great I came to the right place.

I think this is why I find casual guilds to be more fun. I always had the most fun in Flawless Victory and A-Team, and I got very little loot through the years I spent in those guilds. Aside from maybe a set of hate gear for my bard in Flawless Victory, and DKP spent on one Cloak of Piety in the A-Team, I earned everything outside of the guild or on /randoms at guild events. However, I got to have fun conversation with people while doing whatever I felt like doing when I logged in. I'll always be a casual guild guy; guilds are more fun when you don't care about loot and care more about having people to talk to while you're screwing around in the game. I can't imagine what fulfillment people get when they define their guilds' successes by what mobs they kill rather than the relationships they cultivate.

Hey Zanderr! Complete agreement, FV was good times.

So, here's my input...

I am a total asshole and have many friends that helped me get epics on five (almost 6!) different character in AG, Taken, Rampage, and Awakened.

This is because I have a reputation of helping everyone that needs it, whenever asked.

In summary, being a dickhead doesn't stop you from getting epics. Being a self absorbed dickhead that makes drama for others and doesn't have a reputation of helping others does stop you from getting epics.

I'd better submit my app to AG now, then!

(Just kidding, please don't try to recruit me, Expediency)

To OP: I have to agree with a few others in this thread. It's hard (impossible, maybe) to get high end items without having a good reputation or friends. Stick around, make friends, and you'll have all the help you need. It's just a good idea in general to make friends anyway. Friends are fun! Friends like you! Friends go on adventures with you! Being a friend is fun, too! I highly recommend it.

They took away your DKP after they banned you? Harsh. You have a right to be angry. They could have at least let you keep your DKP, amirite?

But if I'm not in the guild then I can't spend DKP anymore so this doesn't work.
