I honestly thought you were just making a point and i was kinda kidding with the whole narcissist thing, but if you're honestly not willing to give out a sow because it costs you mana, or because you think someone asking you for a sow is them being entitled, then you truly have lost touch with reality.

I bet you're going to have a fantastic Christmas this year. Probably surrounded by friends! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah I was just joking before when I said you were entitled. But now I really really super duper mean it.

Being asked for a SoW when you're busy is irritating. Why do soooo many shaman go /anon at higher levels? Cause they are so sick of being nagged to SoW people. I'm a jerk with no family and friends at christmas because I am honest and say "no", got it.

Words don't just mean what you want them to mean. Being honest does not make anyone a jerk, unless they are being a jerk.. And being entitled would be akin to standing beside you and saying "Hey man, how come you haven't sow'd me yet? you know I can't cast it on myself".

Simply asking someone for something does not make them entitled.

Also, have you never been educated in the act of giving? If something costs you maaaaybe 1 full minute of your time (to regain mana in this case), in exchange for bettering someones time/experience for 30x that duration its a no brainier - you should be happy to give them sow. There is an old silly saying that is true if you make it so - "A gift, no matter how small or large, is something that is enjoyed twice".

Not that I actually give a shit and I hate to be a broken record, but the root issue is not you being a jerk, or everyone else being entitled...

"Narcissistic personality disorder — one of several types of personality disorders — is a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others."

not fair to change it now and make people actually play for 40 hours for real by forcing them to engage mobs

Wait, can an auto clicker type /list afk 6889? Or /list afk 3451, or whatever the random 4-digit number is? Is it also an auto-reader? Maybe such a thing exists. Have you been on a list before, Basiah?

More people trying to bully #1 out of the list?

[YendorLootmonkey]

I'm far too casual for this list nonsense or anything requiring more than 2-3 hours of effort, but as a hypothetical example:

#1 is a level 35 ranger, so meets the requirements for the list despite having the damage output of a level 14 druid and a level 21 rogue combined

#1 must participate in the kill

#1 is pissing fluorescent red into a nearby bucket from the amount of energy drinks he has consumed over the last 129 hours

#1 has a verbal agreement with everyone there that they will help now that it's his turn

#1 winds up and attacks the mob, everyone else (may or may not be his own guildmates) hangs around there FD or hidden, laughing.

#1 gets one-shot by the riposte from his first swing, ranger gates, and is out of range, losing his place on the list

#1 receives tell from Myuharin saying "HAHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS"

Would this scenario be petition-able as well by #1?

If not, this is wide open for griefing (it can and will happen, you know the sort of people that play here).

Or don't list if you can solo.
