An "elitist" request

[Wizzly_Bear]

Dear Thelanis,

-Please stop joining lfms that say "zerg" and then stopping at every collectable and p!$$-ant chest.

-Please stop joining lfms that say "in progress" and/or "know your way" and then asking if we're in the quest.

-Please stop joining lfms that say "in progress" and/or "know your way" and then asking for help in getting to the quest.

-Please stop joining lfms while anonymous.

-Please stop joining lfms that say "byoh ("bring your own healing" by the way) and not having any pots/scrolls.

-Please stop getting butt-hurt when you get kicked from groups because you didn't match up to the lfm and decided to join anyway.

Some tips...

-When perusing the lfms you can hover over the quest listed and see the difficulty that is being run.

-When perusing the lfms you can hover over the first box on the left and see who is where (ie: has the quest started yet)

-When perusing the lfms pay attention to the notes the party leader added. They had to actually type them out so those notes are probably important to that party leader.

- If you don't know the quest - fess up! Most party leaders will be happy to help you if you are honest about it, and those who won't aren't people you're going to enjoy running with anyway.

- If you don't know the quest - don't do $hit unless you are instructed to do so. Many quests can be ruined by doing something that logically seems very unimportant.

And finally...grow thicker skin and some metaphorical balls.

Am so glad you posted this thread. I feel strongly that THIS time people will now properly read lfm's. I feel that other threads just came off as whiney in comparison and that is why people still misread or dont read lfm's.

+1 for finally ending this annoying scourge. You shall live on in DDO lore for this. Unto the next generation or update. Whichever comes first, 8).

Please don't join LFMs that say 'Know your puzzle' and then drop group after part 2 and send tells complaining about "elitist pri**"

Please don't have your Guildies send tells to continue to complain after you are squelched.

Please dont call other players "a**" (unedited) in your own lfm after you realize your a piking POS.

Those who read all of the info in the group advertisement before asking to join are the team players that the group wants.

(It also saves a lot of personal embarrassment for a player if he or she follows this advice as well.)

After TRing a few toons myself, I hear you brother about the LFM issue. I really do.

unfortunately, if they can't read an LFM before clicking it, I doubt they would bother reading the forums. But, I certainly understand behind frustrated enough to post about it.

This is one of the reasons why I really wanted to create my own channel, which although is still fairly small, I have really enjoyed being able to post 'hey I'm farming desert anyone 11-13 wanna join?' and fully expecting (and getting) competent players to join and be self sufficient.

turbine kind of screwed the TR grind in this sense, but I know that's not your point. +1 for a legitimate post.
