So resetting's against the rules now?

[Thayos]

God help you if you find something and choose not to call the horde, because they will simply try to wrest it away from you. Does that not strike you as selfish behavior in and of itself?

Actually, this is an interesting concept... because a lot of people in this thread seem to feel that it's "soloers against the horde," when in reality, most of the "early pulls" aren't from soloers, but people in the horde who are abusing intel from their linkshells.

Basically, the horde isn't out to get you. This is just a handful of people who get their rocks off by standing on others to get ahead. The horde is just as sick of them as you are.

Is it nice for people to wait? Absolutely. Are they obligated to do so? Absolutely not.

YES YES YES YES. This is ALL I'm saying, but people seem so resistant to the idea of being nice. It's baffling.

Seriously, sometimes you don't want to see a mob zerged down in 30 seconds. Sometimes it's fun for players to try to tackle a B rank or even an A rank with a smaller party just to see if they're up to the challenge. There's nothing wrong about that behavior.

YES YES YES YES!!!! I agree! I even said this very thing like... three posts ago!

I honestly don't understand where this general reluctance to play nice comes from, even among people who -- if I only read parts of their posts -- would seem to want to advocate playing nice.

I also don't understand the line of thinking that if there's no rule against something, it can't possibly be bad, and therefore we should just act like it's fine... like cutting in line, or laughing at a crippled person, or taking the last piece of birthday cake at the office when you know others haven't eaten yet... all things that don't break any rules whatsoever, yet would be considered by most as "wrong."
