whats up with the anoying ppl??

[metallmaiden]

Today was a busy day in thelanis, had to wait b4 loggin in (im f2p)

I grp twice today, and for the most part we had a really good time, and worked pretty good together with both groups.
But, as allways, ppl have to go at some point or another, so some spots become available as time goes bye, and u ussually want to fill the role asap.
What to do when the newcomer is a p#./k? ppl started sending me tells telling me how much a p#./k this newcomer was, but i never removed someone from a grp, so we waited out, till he droped. NExt to come, another p#./k...Come on! this time, we were a little more anoyyed, but stayed with it, and with patience, he left, and we had a new spot open. (shall i post an LFM that says "p#./ks not allowed?".)
the next one was quite a nice guy and we had a good time till we disbanded.

2nd group was with ppl i've already grped b4, and the same happened. a newcomer comes, and starts bugging me (a sorcerer) for not having high hp, and telling me how to play my sorceror, which im not gonna say im the most skilled player, but im a fairly good nooker and cc, and starting to get some nice buffs.
this time, i talk back, cause I simply cant take it anymore, and the guy leaves. Good ridance every1 says.
Another two spots open and Idiots come, 1 that says "fail" at me for not having blur, a party member says "just look at the kill list and shut up" and the guy gets worked up, and the 2nd one healed himself 4 times (even though he was at 3/4 hp, with no aggro in a single monster fight) while I, the SORCERER was taking dmg from said monster, obviously i died. Then the first one grabs the SS and runs the opposite way from srhine, and gets killed.
We disbanded inmeadiatly after that.
Whats up ppl??? I would never presume of telling ppl how to play. You can know ALL the ins and outs of the game but that doesnt mean u are entitled to being @$$holes. If you think something needs improving, constructive critisism is allways welcome. But theres no room for rudeness.

Do not let it get to you, I understand that sometimes we all tend to want everyone to like us, and we might feel upset when someone points us out for being sucky and how you should do this and that.

My advice is: just ignore them, you are here to have fun after a hard day at work / school, you probably have enough stress as it is at work / school, so why let people like them ruin it for you?

I am a cleric, and when nasty people starts beggering me for heals / talk rubbish I will say this to them: Healing is a privellege, not an entitlement!

Sooner or later the wheat will separate from the chaff, you have to develop thick skin and not take anything personal from players in game. The good thing is the majority of people are decent and the idiots, well their reputation will start to precede them soon.

Make notes in your friends list about who you like to party with and who you do not

I'm sure you have paid it a visit already, but for build advice if required the class forums are excellent data base of knowledge .

Make sure if you are going to use derogatory words on the forums, you just type them out and let them be edited automatically. Using symbols counts as circumventing the swear filter...and I only warn you of this because I have infraction points for doing it too much >.>

Get yourself in a guild with like minded players and you will seldomly have to pug again. Problem solved.
