    Since when are games meant to be productive? You are effectively, sitting in front of a TV/computer, watching pixels move and hitting buttons while you could be doing things productive to your life?
    I don't know about you, but I play games to have fun, I see those pixels and take out the pretty pictures in them, the music, the combat, not to fill some requirement.

    Alos, the vast majority of people who say they aren't interested in other classes, usually haven't even tried.

    Phase 3 I thought I'd hate tanking, tried it near the end, been a Warrior since.

    Rage quitting
    Leaving when you tell group you're new
    Speed runs only
    Need to be extremely over geared in order to get picked up for content

    That's the mmo community these days pretty much. All about efficiency for most.

    in every game it seems to be getting worse, even when your feeling is 'this game probably won't draw in these people'

    I am still baffled they found their way into TSW, a game that was not 'well-known' and quite 'special'.
    week in you had people 'demand' their runs filled with gear that dropped in the dungeons they were doing, so they could farm their silly marks for gear that wasn't even in the game at that point (for the raid that wasn't in-game)
    ARR is the first game I see people freak out so severely when people don't perform to their standard. I'm already having nightmares how bad the community will be in upcommung games like wildstar or teso (especially when all the 'game sucks' folks are really looking forward to these two games)

    Should of seen when I did my first guildhest as a tank. I got raged on so hard because I didn't face the mobs away from the group even though it was done easily with no deaths. It's like dude, it's a level 10-15 guildhest and the first group content available!

    lol. I can beat that. I did the very first guildhest as tank (after already having played whm for quite a while in ARR + playing it for years in FFXI) ... what happens? I write in chat that people should give me a minute for my skills to charge (I had just changed class. silly me). nope, the dps wouldn't have it. then the whm just spammed medica, which of course means I get zero mob aggro (mind you, the dps of course pulled both starter groups lol)

    dying in the very first guildhest is extremely embarassing, so I politely (and i mean that, I'm usually quite polite in-game) told the whm (why the hell would you do that lvl 10 hest as a WHITE MAGE anyway and not as a conjurer? lol) to please use cure and not medica. what happens? of course I get yelled at for being a crap tank and that I need to use flash.

    eh. how exactly am I supposed to use flash as a lvl 10 marauder again? O.o

    Lol, that sig is both unfortunate and epic at the same time. I remember that boss.
