Bards can only effectively kite in a handful of zones, a well rounded group can xp in tons of places. I don't see the problem.

there isn't if the players offended by the acting bard follow the procedures that gms have outlined. whining won't change anything, and the fact that "zones where players XP" encompasses every zone in the game suggests that the title of this thread is discriminatory to the abilities of the bard class.

i think the problem is that some people use these zones to solo, and there arent any mobs when the bard is running them in circles. but that was 8 pages ago so maybe i missed something..

Can I just say I've never had a problem with a kiting bard?

Yeah, if you're in a cinema and there is one asshole constantly talking on his cellphone, why don't you just leave?? There's only a handful of other cinemas this guy can take a call in, but you can go to any cinema you want, you selfish prick!

Failed analogy, i'll give you a C for effort though.

It's pretty accurate. One guy ruining the show for a bunch of other people, yet some comments suggest they should just go somewhere else.

no. you notify management of what that patron is doing, and have them, the authority figures of the theater, deal with the patron who is causing you discomfort. if they have grounds then they will more than likely ask that patron to cease their actions.

your logic is what leads people to shoot strangers in a theater over cell phone talk.

What do you mean "no"? The rest of your post has nothing to do with mine. I was just stating that it is stupid to say "go somewhere else then" to everybody else. I was referring to previous posters that said just that.

That sounds like excellent logic. What is your issue with this?

1) You didn't pay for a ticket but want to complain about the quality of the movie.
2) The one guy who is enjoying the show thought the theater was empty and there are no rules against what he's doing in this particular theater because it was built before cell phones became popular.

As it turns out, you can make an analogy about just about anything, and it's still making a comparison to make it sound like you have a point. We can do this all day, and it doesn't change the fact that the complaint is about (a tiny minority of) bards on the server whose alternative playstyle offends someone else who can't play the same way and therefore blames every server problem(lag, lack of social opportunities, EverQuest classic not meaning that you're entitled to. Group) on those individuals.

There are abusive and rude people playing every class... it's classic, unfortunately. We seem to have forgotten the part of classic wherein people didn't act like this is an XBoxLive chat simulator, because being toxic meant people wouldn't want anything to do with you when you hit the endgame dungeon/epic/raid scene.
